Abstract

This paper attempts to challenge our dualistic understanding of foreign news and to discuss it as a cultural expression in terms of different structures of consciousness as well as different types of media.Previous foreign news studies seldom explain what foreign news is and how we experience it, and leave what assumptions and presuppositions constitute our understandings of foreign news unanswered.In order to unfold what essentially constitutes foreign news and how it comes to appear to human consciousness, hence, this paper reviews the literature of foreign news and seeks to explain foreign news as a cultural expression.
