To innovate the knowledge system of Journalism and Communication with Chinese Characteristics, we must comprehend China's modernization and media practical dimensions in the new era. China’s journalism and communication studies need to break through the boundedness of “Western theory-Chinese experience” and adhere to the academic position of “writing the paper on the land of China”. Chinese media scholars must take root the native land,and comprehend the overall importance, unique nature, sociocultural context, and cutting-edge issues of Chinese media practice. Only by adhering to the academic purpose of summarizing Chinese experience and answering Chinese questions, can media scholars innovate the knowledge system of Journalism and Communication with Chinese Characteristics, which has local implications and universal significance, practical concern and theoretical pursuit, and historical depth and spirit of the times.
