Websites or columns for MFWs<br />

In this study, we didn’t involve the special columns for MFWs of<br />

large business portals such as Phoenix.com and Sohu.com,<br />

because contents of these columns only occupy a very small<br />

proportion of the whole portals. All the 11 special websites and<br />

columns related to MFWs are introduced in table 3. Taking into<br />

account that each case should be effective, we abandoned the No.<br />

9 case because it is only a static page of China.com and hasn’t<br />

been updated since 2005.<br />
