2009年「上海普陀事件」與2011年「廣州增城事件」都是編制外治安力量暴力執法所引發。從地方媒體對其報導轉向即可看出，從事件發起到平息，媒體的關注主體從當事人慢慢轉換為政府。而地方媒體對社會事件的解讀也表現了地方政府與媒體在處理群體事件上的一致性導向，此導向在各類新聞題材報導中均有體現。而異地媒體雖在報導中更客觀地還原治安力量與商販的衝突，卻未觸及編制外治安力量背後蘊含的社會管理體制問題。地方媒體對社會事件的報導中，媒體和政府在已有報導框架中從管理向治理的轉變過程已經露出端倪，但這一轉變過程由於牽涉因素較多，走向何方尚不清晰。

Both the group incidents that occurred in Shanghai in 2009 and the mass incident that occurred in Guangzhou two years later were caused by the violent behaviors of unofficial enforcers. In the local media, reports shifted in focus from the people concerned to the local government as the events unfolded. To some extent, the reports showed consistency between the local government and the local media. This trend was also evident in other types of news story. Reports in the media in other provinces revealed conflicts between unofficial enforcers and peddlers; however, such reports were unrelated to institutional social management problems presented by unofficial enforcers.
