Abstract

Political talk show is the most prominent media form in Taiwan in the past years. This paper observes the history of Taiwan during the past 60 years in the view of political culture and mass media, and it finds that the prosperity of editorial, political advertisement and political talk show is in line with the authoritarian political culture, the enlightenment political culture and “pure” political culture. The secularization of Taiwan political culture has spawned political talk shows and promoted the evolution of media form, as well as the structural transformation of the subject of political media discourse.

Key words
