【新唐人2011年11月16日訊】上個月底，中共才發出嚴格控管網路信息的指令，不到一個月的時間，中共新聞出版總署又發動新一輪對新聞出版業的“打假”行動，這次管控範圍更大，包括所有的新聞出版領域。有媒體工作人員認為，如此接二連三在新聞出版領域發動所謂“打假”，顯示中共對新聞的鉗制更加嚴厲。
中共“掃黃打非”辦公室、新聞出版總署聯合發出通知，要求從11月10號起到12月底，在全中國組織開展打擊非法報刊專項行動，這項行動的重點是打擊非法報刊、非法報刊機構、假記者和假新聞。
華龍網傳媒公司簽約公益歌手楊銀波：「我覺得新聞本身沒有那麼複雜，它就是要真實、迅速即時，要做到這樣的條件，它儘可能的去還原事實真相，去接近、追問、挖掘事實真相，那這樣的新聞不管它在哪樣一個媒體上出現，它就是一個真的新聞，這才是根本的。」
前《中國民營》雜誌記者、專欄作家劉逸明表示，在沒有新聞自由的中國，甚麼是真新聞？甚麼是假新聞？他說，公民記者也是記者，這不需要官方欽定的。
專欄作家劉逸明：「沒有官方的記者證，你不能說他就不是記者，實際上很多官方媒體，他們也就只有單位發的記者證，他們沒有新聞總署發出來的記者證，按照他們所謂的標準，都算是假記者，那實際上，這些假記者，官方的假記者比真正的他們認為所謂的假記者多多了，他們不會去懲罰那些人，他只會懲罰這些公民記者。」
這項被外界批評為鉗制新聞自由的“打假”行動，在一些獨立媒體人看來，多是借題發揮，利用一些社會現象為藉口，目地是加強對新聞和互聯網行業的控制。
人權組織“自由之家”最新年度新聞自由評估報告指出，中國加強了對傳統媒體和互聯網的控制。在2011年新聞自由評級報告中，中國的新聞自由度在196個國家當中倒數13，排名第184。
而中共新聞出版總署還要求，新聞機構須建立健全虛假失實報導的糾錯和更正制度，完善虛假失實報導的責任追究制度，杜絕虛假新聞的產生。
專欄作家劉逸明：「很可笑，官方的假新聞比民間的假新聞多多了，很多時候官方都鼓勵媒體作假新聞，只要是對官方形象有利的，對官方的利益有利的，假新聞他們就會鼓勵。象新華社，新華社的假新聞是做得太多了，每天都在做假新聞，但是，因為他是官方的喉舌，沒有人會對它怎麼樣。」
有網友質問，中央人民廣播電臺壟斷的每晚“新聞聯播”就是真新聞嗎？
對此，劉逸明表示，中共自己的假新聞，目的就是想愚弄老百姓，維護政府和官員的形象，他認為中國要有真新聞，那就得讓媒體獨立，讓公民有選舉官員的權利，再來就是停止打壓那些做良心新聞的記者。
日前，以調查報導聞名的《財經》雜誌，因政治壓力，解聘資深調查記者楊海鵬。因為過去一年，楊海鵬在他的微博揭露上海公權力濫用，將他的妻子梅曉陽冤判入罪4年，楊海鵬把各種的枉法行為曝光，因此被迫辭職。

CCP Clamps Down on Freedom of Speech
In the third week of October, the Chinese Communist Party
(CCP) issued orders to even more strictly control the Internet.
And now, it decided to tackle the problem of fake news
in the news publishing industry.
This last control measure is broader than the previous one,
which now includes the whole news publishing industry.
Some media workers believe that this so-called
“strike fake news” measure shows that the CCP wants to further restrict news freedom.
The CCP’s “Combating Pornography and Illegal Publications”
office and the General Administration of Press and
Publication office were ordered to tackle the many illegal newspapers
and periodicals in China from November 10 to December 31.
The CCP says it wants to target illegal newspaper and periodicals,
illegal-publishing agencies, fake correspondents, and fake news.
Yang Yinbo, a community singer for Chongqing News Net:
“I think news itself isn’t complicated. It should be real and be quick.
Real news should restore the truth, that is, approaching,
following and digging out the truth.
Then, no matter which media uses this news,
it’s real news, which addresses the fundamental issue.”
Liu Yiming, former correspondent and columnist for
China Private Magazine, said today it’s hard to say
what is real news and what is fake news because
there’s no media freedom in China.
He said a normal citizen could be a reporter and
they don’t need the government to tell them they can or can not report the news.
Columnist Liu Yiming: “You can’t say he is not a reporter
if he doesn’t have an official reporter ID card.
Actually, even CCP mmouthpiece reporters only have a
reporter ID issued by the media,
but don’t have an official ID issued by the General
Administration of Press and Publication.
According to the newly announced standard,
even these CCP reporters could be considered fake reporters.
In fact, the official fake CCP reporters are much faker than
the so-called fake reporters.
The government will never punish those officials
fake CCP reporters, but they won’t hesitate to punish ordinary citizen reporters.”
Independent media thought these “fake strike” actions
were CCP tricks.
It uses some social phenomenon as an excuse,
to tighten control of media and the internet.
The latest annual freedom of press assessment report
by human rights organization,
“Freedom House" pointed out, the CCP strengthened the
control of traditional media and internet.
In the 2011 freedom of press list, China ranks 184,
which places it in the bottom 13 of 196 countries.
The General Administration of Press and Publication also
required that news agencies build a system to find and
correct fake and inaccurate news, perfect accountability and
prevent the generation of false news.
Columnist Liu Yiming:”It’s ridiculous.
The official fake news are much more than private fake news.
Most of the time, the CCP encourages media to
produce fake news.
If the fake news is good for the government,
the CCP encourages media to do it.
Like Xinhua News Agency, there is too much fake news
produced by Xinhua News Agency.
It makes fake news every day. But it is the official mouthpiece,
so nobody can do anything against them.”
Netizens are questioning the monopoly of “News Broadcast”
being real news in Center People’s Broadcasting Station.
Liu Yiming said the CCP use fake news to fool people,
and maintain the image of the government and officials.
He thought the only way to have real news in China, is to
grant the media independence, and give the citizen the
authority to vote for officials, and stop suppressing the
reporters who report conscientious news.
“Finance” is a well-known investigation magazine.
Recently, its veteran investigative reporter Yang Haipeng was fired just because of political pressure.
Yang’s wife Mei Xiaoyang was injustly sentenced to
4 years in jail.
Yang then unveiled the abuse of public power in
Shanghai via blogs in the past year,
which include a variety of capricious behavior by officials.
Finally, Yang was forced to resign.
