Omni-media, platform-based communication on the rise in China's news media sector


Over the past two years, traditional media such as radio, television and newspapers have seen a slow pace of growth and continued to focus on deep convergence and digital transformation, the report noted.
According to the report, emerging technologies, such as media platforms, data transmission, high-definition video technology, artificial intelligence (AI) and 5G, have driven media reform and innovation.
"In this context, the media workforce in China is becoming younger and better educated, and more capable," read the report.
China's news sector employed approximately 1 million employees, according to figures.
The report also noted that the past two years saw further efforts made by the ACJA in protecting journalists' rights.
According to the ACJA, the report, originally in Chinese, will also be made available in multiple languages, including English, French, Russian, Spanish and Arabic.
