The aim of the present study is to explore the role of radio and television broadcasters & presenters in the construction of urban historical memory, especially how their participation influences this process through oral history and media practice. Through in-depth interviews with more than ten radio and television broadcasters & presenters, this paper will Code and analyze the materials to reveal how they act as guardians and disseminators of urban memory and, therefore, influence the inheritance and development of urban culture through professional practice. In addition, the study will explore the interactive relationship between media and urban development and how this interaction can jointly promote overall social progress. Through this study, we hope to provide a new perspective on the construction mechanism of urban cultural memory, as well as theoretical support and practical guidance for the development and dissemination of urban culture.
