      All news media run by the Party must work to speak for the Party’s will and its propositions and protect the Party’s authority and unity

      They should enhance their awareness to align their ideology, political thinking and deeds to those of the CPC Central Committee and help fashion the Party’s theories and policies into conscious action by the general public while providing spiritual enrichment to the people

      Xi Jinping February 2016.

        Taking the quote completely at face value:

        So it’s now censorship of freedom of expression if the state is not actively sponsoring, advertising, and distributing criticism of itself? I should try writing to NPR about how we need a proletarian party controlling the government so I can say that they’ve “censored” me when they obviously don’t invite me on to talk about it.
