China has the world's largest newspaper industry by number of publications, serving a population of 1.4 billion readers across a vast country spanning five time zones and extraordinary geographic, cultural, and economic diversity. The Chinese media landscape operates in a unique environment — with a powerful state media sector led by the Communist Party's official outlets alongside increasingly sophisticated business journalism, regional press, and massive digital platforms that serve hundreds of millions of news readers daily.
China's media is anchored by the People's Daily and Xinhua — the official organs of the Communist Party and state respectively. China Daily is the main official English-language paper. CGTN is China's major international TV network. For independent business journalism, Caixin and its English outlet Caixin Global are highly respected internationally. China's massive internet portals — Sina, Tencent QQ, NetEase and Phoenix ifeng — serve hundreds of millions of readers. South China Morning Post (Hong Kong) is Asia's most respected English-language newspaper covering China.
