Abstract： In recent years,study on the paradigms for press history has become a popular project in the academic circles of press history.The critic on the evaluation and impact of the "revolution history paradigms" was a particular heated topic."Revolution history paradigms" formed in a special era,so its critic should be connected the specific historical scene and the "ontology paradigms" is also difficult to become a testified theory owing to the complicated journalism and the divergent interpretations of the journalistic ontology.Taking the two paradigms into consideration,we can conclude that the research of press history should not be expected to form a unity paradigm.We’d better recover the specific background of history and the criteria of all the research thoughts and methods should focus on discovering the truth of history facts and summing up the law of the development of press history.
