People's Daily

The deputy editor for People’s Net, the web edition of the Chinese regime’s mouthpiece People’s Daily, has been placed under investigation for extortion

And it’s actually not too far off the mark

Chinese real estate tycoon Ren Zhiqiang has criticized the Chinese regime and official media for its position against what it terms ‘western values.’

The Party-mouthpiece People’s Daily has become a target for a corruption investigation. Propaganda chief Liu Yunshan is believed to be the real target.

Jiang Zemin’s days are numbered. It is only a question of when, not if, the former head of the Chinese Communist Party will be arrested. Jiang officially ran the Chinese regime for more than a decade, and for another decade he was the puppet master behind the scenes who often controlled events. During those decades Jiang did incalculable damage to China. At this moment when Jiang’s era is about to end, Epoch Times here republishes in serial form “Anything for Power: The Real Story of Jiang Zemin,” first published in English in 2011. The reader can come to understand better the career of this pivotal figure in today’s China.

With constant and shifting political intrigues swirling in the Chinese Communist Party, it’s hard to always know who is in charge. But one thing has become abundantly clear to me, and that is that cats have taken over China’s state-run People’s Daily newspaper.
