US to treat Chinese state media like an arm of Beijing's government

A senior State Department official said Tuesday that Xinhua, China Global Television Network, China Radio International, China Daily and People's Daily will be designated as"foreign missions," effective immediately, in accordance with the Foreign Missions Act.

This official also pointed to the 2017 National Security Strategy, which identified great power competition as a central focus and China as one of the US' main competitors, along with Russia. No move against Russian outletsNeither official could explain why Russian state-owned media outlets operating in the US were not being designated as well.

Well cnn is bad itself as it does the bidding of politicians as we well so..

Indeed. They shouldn't be called 'media', they should be called 'CCP propaganda machine' instead.

Every country should act in the same way, giving sanctions to China. We should not keep funding to a regime which treading the ethic minorities as slaves! coronaviruskenya CCP

China’s media are good lier HongKongIsNotChina

Good. China is good at using media to deceive her people and the Western countries

So they will get also diplomatic immunity? Crazy

Long ago the chineses people said only the weather forecast on china newspapers is correct. CCP has only propaganda but no truth open. Now it is invading the world's free media.

Just like cnn and deep state cia trash ehh

Yep. we all know who our media works for and treat them with appropriate skepticism. Do you?

Those Chinese media making up only fake news, they should be charged

Good move to encounter what the CCP has been doing to the world which are spreading fake news and misinformation.

CNN and other fake news American corporate media should be given the same treatment in China.

Do Fox News next.

What about RT (Russia Today) Aren't they broadcasting on radio in Mike Pompeo's backyard of Kansas? That's totally cool right 🙄🙄🙄😒😒😒🧐🤔

And all CNN can do is empower the Russian and the Impeachment hoax.

Great news!

A wise measure, the CCP has tight control over these companies.

FreedomOfSpeech 😂

Honestly, RT_com and AlJazeera should be placed under the same designation. Any domestic media outlet that has any kind of significant exposure to foreign influnce should be placed under the Foreign Missions designation!

They need to do that with Fox news. The propaganda arm of the regime.

Dear liberals do this now for your own safety!! realDonaldTrump KAG

Perfect!

Can someone with common sense tell me what this means?

State-run media, surely can’t be viewed as independent media

I've be annoyed by Deputy Chief of China Daily in Europe who nonstop spreads propaganda in Twitter for months, better ban China Daily asap

Who knows if Fox isn't infiltrated by CCP lol Yet a good step for US.

Wait, do they get diplomatic immunity now?

Yeah, CNN should comply with rules governing foreign embassies and consulates

Oh this is not attacking FreedomOfSpeech right? Why not russians? More politicaly motivated garbage.

In other news. China responds by adding CNN,CBS,ABC AND NBC as extensions of the US Government and subjected to being called an Embassy.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

We should do the same with Fox News.

And when will Americans treat FoxNews as an arm of the king trump administration PardonTheSwamp

Is the United States beginning to worry about China, which symbolizes peace?

being one of those companies.

Insanity

Kinda like Fox News is in the US.

Will Fox News be similarly treated as an extension of this White House?

In retaliation, Beijing might start treating Fox News as an extension of the Trump administration.
