This presentation will briefly introduce the democratization of TV news system after the "cold war" between China and Taiwan. Several issues will also be presented: What does TV news look like in Taiwan, and how do competition among media corporations in Taiwan and Hong Kong contribute to the tabloid phenomenon? And, finally, how is the public TV service struggles in the tabloid wave? An award-winning documentary "Hermit Crabs in Plastic House" will be screened at the end of the presentation. There will be time for any curiosity and questions about the newsroom and news system in Taiwan.
