“第二媒介时代”的突发事件——以“伦敦连环爆炸案”为例

Incidents in “The Second Media Age”— Taking “London Bombings” on July 7th,2005 as an Example

本文以“伦敦连环爆炸案”为例,借用马克·波斯特的“第二媒介时代”理论,研究手机、博客等新型媒介如何报道突发事件。手机的即时采写功能和博客的即时编发功能,已经彻底更新了传统媒体对突发事件的报道模式,公民成为记者、记者成为读者。文章还研究了互联网2.0时代对互联网1.0时代的超越,并指出“第三媒介时代”已经渐现雏形,当信息呈爆炸趋势,对信息的综合和分析也显得更为必要。

This essay focuses on how the new types of media such as mobile phone and blog report incidents,referring to Mark Poster＇s ＂The Second Media Age＂ theory, illustrated by ＂London Bombings＂ on July 7th, 2005. The instant reporting function of mobile phone and the instant editing function of blog have already renewed the traditional models settled by the old fashioned media. Citizens play as reporters while reporters play as common readers. This essay also studies the symptom that the age of Web2.0 transcends the age of Webl. 0. It will be much more important to synthesize and analyze the information in the time of ＂The Third Media Age＂ forging its shape and with information explosion.
