However, with its rapid development, short video news is also facing many challenges, especially in copyright protection and content quality control. First of all, the copyright issue is one of the most difficult problems in the development of short video news. Due to the low production cost of short videos, some content creators often use other people's works without authorization in order to pursue a high click rate, which not only infringes on the copyright of the original creator, but also harms the healthy development of the whole industry. In addition, the algorithmic recommendation mechanism of short video platforms also exacerbates the problem of copyright infringement, as this mechanism tends to prioritize the recommendation of content that infringes on copyright, thus reducing the recommendation of original content. Second, content quality control is also a major challenge for short video news. In order to attract viewers, some short video news over-pursues the eyeball effect, with inaccuracies and exaggerations. This not only misleads the public, but also reduces the credibility of news media. At the same time, due to the low threshold of production and dissemination of short video news, the phenomenon of content homogenization and vulgarization is serious, which affects the overall image and dissemination effect of short video news. 9.2 Countermeasures for Short Video News in the New Media Environment In order to cope with these challenges, effective strategies must be adopted to enhance the quality and influence of short video news. First, strengthening copyright protection is the key to the development of short video news. Since the copyright protection mechanism of short video platforms is not yet perfect, infringement occurs from time to time. Therefore, the relevant departments should increase the publicity and education on copyright laws to improve the public's copyright awareness. At the same time, a sound copyright protection mechanism should be established to strengthen the monitoring and punishment of infringing behaviors and protect the legitimate rights and interests of originators. Second, improving content quality is the core of short video news development. This requires that journalists should strengthen professional training, improve their own innovative consciousness and creative ability, and ensure the creation of short video news with high content quality and rich communication forms. At the same time, short video news producers should pay attention to the interaction with the audience, using the interactive features of the short video platform, such as likes, comments, etc., to strengthen the communication and exchange with the audience. Through interaction, not only can we understand the feedback and needs of the audience in time and optimize the content production strategy, but also enhance the audience's sense of participation and viscosity, and promote the dissemination of short video news. In short, in the face of the challenges of short video news in the new media environment, the relevant departments and journalists should adopt a comprehensive response strategy in order to promote the healthy development of short video news and contribute to the prosperity of the news communication cause. 10.
