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 (such as the Hong Kong Government) recommend the usage of 報道 / 报道 (bàodào) and proscribe the use of 報導 / 报导 (bàodǎo) to emphasize the principle of objectivity in journalism. 導 / 导 (dǎo) means "leading" and is thus discouraged.
