AbstractNews sites are among the mass media that have grown a lot due to the facilitation of the use of website technology. Now, due to the emergence of social media and the change in the audience's news consumption taste, news sites have lost a part of their audience. But having an editorial process and more reliability than social media has kept them as the most visited news media in the media environment. Turning news sites into news sources is one of the concerns of the managers of these sites. In this regard, the aim of the current research is to present a paradigmatic model of authority in news websites. The research method, the qualitative method of the foundation's data theory, and the data collection method were in-depth and semi-structured interviews with 16 managers, editors, and reporters of news sites and news agencies, as well as experts in the media field. The method of data analysis is open, central, and selective coding, and finally, a paradigm model of reference for news sites has been presented.Using new ways of interpreting a single event can be a competitive advantage for news sites over other news media. Audience trust includes the following categories: authenticity of news coverage, professionalism in producing and publishing news, the authenticity of the news, objectivity in relation to news publication, and transparency as the main phenomenon or central category that creates media credibility in news sites. Media credibility, including the following categories: fidelity to the elements of digital journalism in a professional manner, timeliness and neutrality of news, the art of audience analysis and persuasion, promotion of the special value of the news website brand, skill in employing a professional reporter and production and publishing correct news that is a strategy to become an authority on news sites. Behavioral tendencies of the audience include the following categories: understanding the needs of the audience and interacting with them, paying attention to the tastes of the audience, preparing special news packages for different audiences, attracting the maximum audience, the macro environment and a platform for realizing the phenomenon of news authority. The classes that shape the presented model include: the competitive environment of news sites (causal conditions), media trust (main phenomenon), increasing media credibility (strategy), attractiveness of news site design (intervening conditions), audience behavioral tendencies (context) and news authority as a (consequence) model.The findings showed that there is a significant difference between the content of news websites in terms of educational components, event level, subject matter, and news bias... considering that trust as a mechanism to reduce risk and uncertainty plays a very important role and has a role in the success and effectiveness of new media, therefore, it is of particular importance to provide a comprehensive framework and model of the factors affecting the audience's trust in news websites. Because if they are recognized, the websites in the context of e-commerce will be able to give satisfaction to their users and lead to news authority. The advantage of the present research compared to the researches presented in this field is that the presented model in this research, is a comprehensive and action-based model that has tried to pay attention to most of the effective operational components in becoming a news authority at the same time and avoiding generalization, and in this direction, it is a small step in linking theory and practice in relation to the process of becoming a news authority.The emergence and expansion of information and communication technology require us to witness a jump in quality and content in the field of new news websites, and if this point is neglected, the advantage of media competition will be lost, and this issue will be at the cost of the gradual decline of that website. The site ends. So, designers and decision-makers in this field have no right to be negligent.Suggested effective measures in the field of authority building and increasing media credibility- Improvement of UI and UX on news sites- Dissemination of secondary news about a phenomenon- Creating innovative and exclusive content for different users- Converting the audience to a user on the news site- Improving the special value of the brand of the news site- Creating a new user experience on the news site for the user

Air accidents are always important to the media and public opinion, but during international political conflicts, the importance of these events increases. The crash of the Ukrainian PS 752 aircraft on 8 January 2020, because of its connection to the Iran-US tensions, became the top news headline of the world. Even now that more than two years have passed since the event, the media tries to steer public opinion in their own desired direction, by producing content about the air crash and its victims, reflecting the reactions of the countries involved and the world powers, and linking it to other issues related to Iran, such as the nuclear issue, human rights, and civil protests. Therefore, to understand national and international public opinion, and to predict the course of events, it’s appropriate to study the news coverage of the incident in the world's leading media, including 24-hour television news channels, which are the primary sources of news for the general public. Using the framework analysis methodology, this study examines the images that these media present to their audience about the PS752 incident, in different stages. Therefore, the researchers collected all the news of the incident, published on the websites of BBC Persian, BBC World, IRINN, Iran International, Russia Today, CNN, Fox News, and Euro News, from January 8 to 18, 2020. Finally, 663 news items were collected and the headlines and leads of this 663 data were analyzed. Using pre-existing and new frameworks, this study shows which aspects of the incident were highlighted by any of the mentioned media and based on this data, it compares these media and their policies. The results of this analysis can be summarized as follows: 1. Following the announcement of the missile strike, the level of attention to the incident increased in most of these networks, despite the differences in the patterns of attention; 2. Three approaches based on highlighting, conservatism, and marginalization were identified in framing the news of the incident in the studied media.

Although many studies have been done on news and linguistics features of media discourse, considering news genres and differences in their linguistics details have been neglected. This genres include political, social, economical, cultural, labor, international, world and science. This research is due to study on linguistics features of sport and social news, considering Van Dijk’s Theory of Ideology (2006) and also their differences is due to be identified, described and explained. By doing so, in the end a model will be represented for selection and representation of news in these fields. The reason for selection of these two fields is the amount of their audience and meaningful difference of their linguistic errors in comparison with other fields. This research has been done by field method and the data has been analyzed by Chi-squared test. Evaluation of efficiency of this model showed that it can be used as source for journalists in these two fields linguistically and considering communication theories. By doing so, journalists, editors and editors in chiefs have a scientific reference and this would lead to optimization of human force who works in media.

The purpose of this study is to compare the Counter-Hegemonic international news coverage by the Press TV news network against the Hegemonic discourse of the western media in a case study. This study is to find out why, how and by which techniques is the discourse made and who is making it by asking three questions including why they speak, who is speaking, and how do they speak. Discourse analysis method is used to collect qualitative data.The conceptual framework to carry this study is based on the Gramsci's theory of Hegemony, Stuart Hall's theory of Representation, and the Laclau and Mouffe's Discourse Theory. The findings show that Press TV uses "Reverse Representation" in the confrontation with western media who shows Islam and East as an inferior otherness. Press TV utilizes special vocabulary system, focuses on the voice of voiceless and employs both organic and traditional intellectuals to verbalize Postcolonial subjects which all are hit off with its counter-hegemonic purposes.
