2016年中国新闻学研究总体呈现不均衡状态。鉴于互联网传播技术的迅猛展势，学界对传统新闻传播面临危机的回应性研究、现实传播情势的研究较多，但基础理论研究单薄。鉴于这年习近平接连四次发表关于新闻舆论、网络工作的讲话，因而涉及习近平新闻舆论思想的文章较多，但研究质量较高的不多。这年新闻学研究的学术进展主要体现在数据新闻研究、新闻传播从业者研究、互联网条件下的个人信息权保护研究、中国新闻史研究方面。文章认为，中国新闻学研究总体上没有走在互联网趋势发展的前面，而跟在后面做一些阐释性的工作不该是学界的主要任务。向社会不断提出忠告、警告，才是学界的责任。

This article is a brief review of China’s journalism studies in 2016, based on a survey of important academic journal articles. It fnds that the utilitarian studies are relatively more than the basic theoretical research. These are re?ected in the facts that much of the scholars’ attention has been paid to new phenomenon of journalism crisis and news idea of Xi Jinping. At the same time, there are also many topics of the related areas that merit attentions, especially in the felds of journalistic professionalism, news business, the personal information right and “new” history of newspaper. Generally speaking, this paper argues that the primary duty of academic circles is to provide all kinds of advice and warnings constantly for the whole society.
