Global Times

Chinese state media, nationalist

The Global Times is a state-controlled tabloid published by People's Daily, the flagship organ of the Chinese Communist Party, giving the CCP significant editorial authority over its content. It covers international affairs from a strongly nationalist, pro-Beijing perspective. Its stance toward the Trump administration is mixed — it has praised Trump actions that benefit Chinese interests, such as cuts to U.S. international broadcasters, while sharply criticizing his tariff policies and Taiwan posture.
