Abstract

Many scholars acknowledge the substantive changes in Chinese media in the post-Mao period, but regret that these have not resulted in western-style press freedoms. Significant among these changes has been the emergence and rapid development of what is termed the semi-independent media that now constitute a prominent feature of China's ''socialist'' media industries. Focusing on a case study of the Chengdu Business News, this article argues that the rise of these semi-independent media, which reflects the relaxation of media regulation post-Mao, has generated significant structural and operational changes in Chinese newspapers.
