With the deepening of globalization, numerous international issues are increasingly emerging throughout the world, especially the COVID-19 pandemic. National image of a country changes over different periods and events. As a powerful voice in shaping national image, the media provides a convenient channel for people to recognize and understand the images of other countries. The discourse power of mainstream media has a profound impact on the construction and dissemination of national image. Based on Discourse-Historical Approach to critical discourse analysis, this study analyzes the national image of China and the United States in the context of the pandemic from the perspective of discursive strategies.
