Google’s flagship news platform indexes content produced by three Chinese state-run outlets that have been accused of disseminating propaganda on behalf of the Chinese Communist Party, including downplaying the Uyghur genocide and attempting to sow dissent among U.S. citizens.
Google News provides a nearly unending stream of articles published by the People’s Daily, the official newspaper of the CCP, and China Global Television Network, a Washington Examiner review has found. Both outlets have been flagged by the Justice Department as foreign missions of the CCP working to advance China’s interests by exerting influence in the United States. Additionally, the platform presents readers with articles from China Daily, an outlet run by the Central Propaganda Department of the CCP.
