Abstract

News reporting is a report of new events happening somewhere. While news commentary is the voice of the editor or reporter about news events and his or her instructive ideas on a social phenomenon. Metadiscourse plays a crucial role in both the two genres of news discourse. This paper selects twenty pieces of Russian news reports and news commentaries respectively to make a comparative analysis of similarities and differences of metadiscourse application and to explore its distribution and characteristics in order to enrich the application of metadiscourse and help the reading, writing and translation of Russian news at the same time.
