Current news production model based on objectivity is limited by the traditional views and methods of objectivity and turn objective into passive strategies, which leads to the disconnection between concept and practice. In the context of postmodern knowledge transformation, Ethnographic journalism challenged traditional objectivity and attempted to rebuild a more balanced narrative pattern by rethinking the relationship between the interviewer and the sources ,and perspective to restore concealed pluralism and diversity, making journalism to release more equal meanings.
