    Tian Jin, deputy director of the State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television, said in a commentary published by the People?s Daily, the party?s mouthpiece, that the country?s media workers at ?mainstream? media outlets ? newspapers, TV and broadcaster stations ? should closely follow the party line and show ?unlimited loyalty? to the party and the people.

    The media regulator on the Chinese mainland has vowed to strengthen the vetting of television programmes and severely punish people responsible for those found to be ridiculing state policies or hyping social media trending topics, its deputy director says.
