“…For newsmakers, this arena of discourse furnished a rich new source of leads and materials (Hassid and Repnikova 2016), allowed for new forms of communication and community to emerge among journalists (Repnikova 2013;Svensson 2012), and afforded them new ways to get their news stories circulated to audiences (Guo 2020;H. Yu 2011;Gao and Martin-Kratzer 2011).…”

Rather than treating the news in any contemporary context as an extension of the political and ideological systems that are associated with it, it is necessary to ask how the news' truth-claims are being shaped by the culturally particular ideas and sensibilities that orient its producers, distributors, and consumers to their worlds. At a time of intensifying geopolitical tensions, the hope of this book is thus to contribute to more thoughtful and nuanced ways of engaging with news both in China and beyond. chapter 1 the curreNcy of truth of you because they think that you're out to make trouble for them. And news readers don't trust you, because they think that you only say what the leaders want you to. Why should readers trust you, really? They know that you write news for your own sake and not out of concern for them. This is your rice bowl, after all. You may not be happy about the leaders' demands, but you're still going to write as you're told to because you cannot afford not to.The close involvement of Party officials and the top-down control that Zheng Wen's comments allude to are well-known features of the news media in China, where the ruling Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) large and powerful Publicity Department (xuanchuanbu) 3 systematically stipulates what the country's newspapers can and cannot report. This arrangement dates back to the founding of the People's Republic in 1949, when the newly established CCP government, with its charismatic chairman Mao Zedong at its helm, brought the nation's printing presses under its control and designated them the political and ideological mouthpiece, or "throat and tongue of the Party." While China's post-Mao marketization policies later broadened the range of topics that newspapers were permitted to cover and created more room for newsmakers to circumvent and even "push back" (Hassid 2016; Repnikova 2017) against the Party's press restrictions, the conditions that journalists work under today remain highly restrictive. Although there are now a large number of entirely market-oriented non-Party newspapers, all news outlets are to some degree still governed by "the Party principle," which demands that they accept the Party's guiding ideology as their own; publicize the Party's programs, policies, and directives; and abide by the Party's organizational principles and press commands (Y. Zhao 1998, 19). Compared to his predecessors, China's current president, Xi Jinping, has enforced this principle with renewed vigor. He has emphasized that the media should serve as "propaganda fronts" of the Party (Associated Press 2016); created new administrative offices whose mandate is to tighten the censorshi...

“…Chinese journalists are taking advantage of the internet's special characteristics to avoid severe censorship, such as opening interactive spaces, using microblogs to publish anonymous or fast contents, and employing crowdsourcing to finance investigative journalism (Gao & Martin, 2011;Song & Chang, 2017;Jian & Liu, 2018;López Parra, 2013).…”

pero creada y distribuida con una intención maliciosa. A pesar de sus posibles efectos negativos, la IA está transformando el panorama mediático junto con otras tecnologías. Este artículo explora la relación entre la IA y la desinformación en el contexto del periodismo en línea chino. La ciberesfera china se puede explicar a través de definiciones opuestas. Por ejemplo, China es un país donde los medios de comunicación masiva, especialmente los medios de noticias, están bajo vigilancia del gobierno y donde no hay medios polarizados, a diferencia de las democracias occidentales. Después de realizar una revisión sistemática de la literatura sobre la relación entre la IA, el periodismo y la desinformación en China, se detectaron vacíos en la literatura que incluyen las iniciativas autorreguladas realizadas por la IA dentro de los medios de comunicación, el impacto de la IA en el periodismo especializado, la evaluación de textos producidos por la IA, y los efectos de las campañas y productos de cámara de eco entre la población china
