Campaign to target fake news
CHINA has launched a new round of crackdowns on fake news and illegal publications.
A nationwide campaign from March to November targets people falsely claiming to be journalists and using fake news stories to blackmail others, according to a statement by the National Office Against Pornographic and Illegal Publications.
It also aims to uncover foreign journalists engaging in illegal news reporting, as well as illegal news websites and academic journals, according to the statement.
At the same time, a campaign will aim to clean up publications using content that is harmful to minors, such as obscenity school bullying and suicide, and shut down websites and apps that disseminate harmful literature, games and cartoons.
Chinese law enforcers will also crack down on the creation, sale and dissemination of pornographic information in live-streaming videos, instant chat services and pop-up ads, the statement said, adding that live-streaming video platforms and websites should improve systems that review content.
In the first two months of this year, more than 1.3 million illegal publications were confiscated nationwide and over a million pornographic items removed.
