从九一八事变到七七事变期间的《纽约时报》

The New York Times from the Manchurian Incident to the Liukouchiao Incident

九一八事变和七七事变是20世纪30年代中日冲突的两起标志性重大事件,引起了以《纽约时报》为代表的美国媒体的关注。在这两次事变期间,《纽约时报》对中日冲突的立场发生了重大变化：对中国的态度由冷眼旁观转变为日益同情;对日本的态度由纵容妥协转变为批评谴责。《纽约时报》关于中日冲突的报道逐渐向抑日援华的方向转换,为美国远东政策的转变奠定了舆论基础。

Both the Manchurian Incident and the Liukouchiao Incident were the two important incidents of the 1930 s in Sino-Japanese conflicts,which drew the attention of American media represented by The New York Times. During the two incidents,the stand of The New York Times has greatly changed. The newspaper＇s attitude towards China has changed from apathy to sympathy,while its attitude towards Japan has changed from connivance to condemnation. The New York Times＇ reporting context about Sino-Japanese conflicts gradually developed with a tendency of suppressing Japan and aiding China,which laid the public opinion basis for the conversion of American Far Eastern policies.
