History

[edit]

In 1990, Xinmin Evening News personnel were dispatched to the U.S. to found an American edition to counter negative perceptions of the Chinese government following the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests and massacre.[1]

In March 2018, Xinmin Evening News won the Third National Top 100 Newspapers in China.[2][3]

In October 2020, the United States Department of State designated Xinmin Evening News as a foreign mission of the Chinese government.[4][5][6]
