Tran Ngoc Phuong Uyen, Do Thi Xuan Quyen, Thai Cong Dan

Abstract


The baotintuc.vn website is a newspaper belonging to the Vietnam News Agency (VNA). Following the new trend of the press, this newspaper officially launched the website www.baotintuc.vn on December 17, 2010 to support information for newspapers and expand the audience. When researching this topic, the researchers selected Megastory articles on the baotintuc.vn online newspaper for the survey. The study would examine 74 articles in the Megastory category in a 12-month period in 2020. From this respect, it aims to generalize the characteristics of content and form of this genre with various fields. The findings revealed that the content and form characteristics in Megastory articles have been asserting themselves in the world's multimedia journalism trends, meeting public tastes nationwide and worldwide as well.
