Usage notes

報道／报道 (bàodào) and 報導／报导 (bàodǎo) have the same meaning and are pronounced the same way in various dialects. Some people recommend the usage of 報道／报道 (bàodào) and discourage the use of 報導／报导 (bàodǎo) to emphasize the principle of objectivity in journalism. 導／导 (dǎo) means "leading" and thus the latter is discouraged.
