Abstract
Uses secondary data to examine the development of mass media in China
in the past four decades. TV has become the most rapidly developing
medium, while film & wired broadcasting (loudspeakers) have declined.
The growth of print media seems to be leveling off, although the
number of titles was on the rise in the late 1980s. Growth in the
number of radio receivers also slowed down in the late 1980s. It
is suggested that the rapid growth of TV at a time when China is
experiencing its fastest economic growth may well indicate a mutually
reinforcing relationship because TV & entertainment help build consensus
& maintain social stability. 2 Tables, 40 References. Adapted from
the source document.
