Content
Taiwan.cn is managed by the Taiwan Affairs Office of the Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party.[2][3]
A 2011 study showed that the news on Taiwan.cn about mainland China was mainly about science, education, culture, economy, society and medicine, while news about politics and cross-strait relations was relatively rare. The sources of news cited were mainly central-level news websites such as Xinhuanet. The news was mainly about cities, and there were more positive news.[4]
According to a report by Taiwan's Apple Daily on May 16, 2019, this news website is a common source of disseminating controversial information and has been included in the monitoring list of the National Security Bureau.[5] In June 2019, Taiwan.cn said that the Liberty Times reported 38 articles about the Guangdong–Hong Kong–Macao Greater Bay Area in May. The Liberty Times later refuted its claim and pointed said they only reported 21 articles, most of which were reminders of the "one country, two systems" propaganda in the Greater Bay Area.[6]
