The research method is quantitative content analysis and the foreign contents of newspapers have been analyzed in a statistical week in the first four months of 1399.
Findings show that the main structure of foreign contents in Iranian newspapers focuses on the topics of "science, technology and health" and most of the contents have the news value of "conflict and conflict".
The form of presenting foreign contents is more in the form of "news"; However, Hamshahri and Iran have also paid more attention to "reporting, analysis and interpretation" formats in publishing foreign contents.
The results of statistical analysis as a whole indicate that newspapers pay modest attention to "news source writing" as a professional and ethical principle.
