Dialogue is one of the ways and means to achieve the goals of journalism. On this journey, journalists and people are close because of emotional resonance and value recognition, and people and stories are at the same frequency because of reporters' narration and collective memory. The dialogue has deepened the understanding and strengthened the determination of journalists to do their part to spread mainstream values.
