More Marxist view of journalism education for Chinese reporters

Xinhua, April 27, 2017 Adjust font size:

The General Office of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee has asked for more Marxist view of journalism education for Chinese reporters and journalism majors at universities.

According to a plan to deepen reform of the All-China Journalists' Association (ACJA) circulated by the office, a long-term training mechanism for education on the Marxist view of journalism should be established to "united and lead Chinese journalists to be loyal to the Party's news cause."

The training should take "socialist core values" as an important component, and should be expanded to schools of journalism at colleges and universities nationwide, it added.

It also said the ACJA should broaden its representation of front-line journalists and new media and to step up review of fake news and other prominent problems haunting Internet-based news reporting. Endi
