Media Guidance and Collective Sentiment---Taking Shi Jianqiao’s Revenge Case in the Period of the Republic of China as an Example

In November 1935, Sun Chuanfang, the former warlord was assassinated by Shi Jianqiao in the Tianjin Qingxiu lay-Buddhist society, which was sensational nationwide and widely attracted the media. The media showed sympathy to Shi Jianqiao and shaped her a good image, which significantly guided the collective sentiment. In the argument between law and sentiment, the Nationalist government preferred the collective sentiment and Shi Jianqiao was given a state pardon. Shi Jianqiao’s case is a significant event in the history of China’s judiciary as well as China’s journalism. Shi Jianqiao’s case demonstrated that the strength of modern media was reinforced as well as the influence of media guidance upon the collective sentiment.
