This thesis looks at four newspapers, one English and three Chinese, and their transition from print to online to analyze how internet architecture in the form of HTML and CSS interacts with Chinese-language text. Using critical technocultural discourse analysis, comparisons between The New York Times, The New York Times Chinese edition, The Liberty Times in Taiwan, and People's Daily in China show that aspects of the code dealing with text styling and formatting are reflective of larger obstacles posed by the current utility and ideological framework of internet architecture when it comes to accurately translating print versions of these papers online for the China and Taiwan-produced papers. These obstacles are, as the analysis shows, the result of a constant framing of Chinese language as needing to work for pre-established western design frameworks. When the frameworks fail Chinese-language users, analysis shows that distinct cultural elements such as expressions of sovereignty and artistic tradition are eliminated, in this study referred to as cultural erasure. The study focuses on fonts and vertical and right-to-left reading styles as the lenses through which cultural erasure is observed. The consequences of the difficulties presented by current internet architecture deal with loss of cultural elements and diminished usability. This study concludes that the compounded result of this added difficulty is cultural erasure, and advocates for more culturally minded programming that does not contextualize Chinese language exclusively from a western point of view.
