CHINA-MEDIA: POPULAR CHINESE FINANCIAL PUBLICATION PLACED ON BANNED LIST BY CYBERSPACE ADMINISTRATION OF CHINA
The Cyberspace Administration of China announced on October 21 an approved list of some 1,300
domestic media outlets, social media accounts and government agencies, banning internet news
providers from using other sources. Caixin -- a financial news organization that has reported on
official corruption, pollution issues and public anger at the government -- has been put on this
banned list meaning its articles cannot appear on the internet platforms such as Sina.com that are
popular ways for the Chinese public to consume news. Meanwhile, Ant has exited its stake in Caixin.
