In this Tuesday, March 20, 2018 photo released by Xinhua News Agency, Chinese President Xi Jinping waves to elected deputies after the closing session of the annual National People's Congress (NPC) at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing. The Chinese Communist Party's move to exert direct control over state broadcasters and regulators of everything from movies and TV to books and radio programs shows the party's drive to use the media for ideological efforts at home and to improve its image overseas, analysts say. The move is part of a push by Xi to tighten party supervision over much of Chinese public life as he renews his uncontested rule free of constitutional limits on his terms in office.
