Reuters Down in China




The Reuters news website is down in China. GreatfirewallofChina.org shows the English version and the Chinese language version of Reuters were blocked in China.

Among the news organization websites blocked in China are Bloomberg and the Wall Street Journal. The Chinese government often blocks news websites in response to unfavorable press coverage. This can sometimes be temporary or on a longer-term basis.

The most recent article Reuters wrote about “China,” according to a online search, was “Senators seek U.S. strategy to stop China’s South China Sea reclamation.

A Reuters spokesperson said in a statement to TKNN, “Reuters is committed to practicing fair and accurate journalism worldwide. We recognise the great importance of news about China to all our customers, and we hope that our sites will be restored in China soon.”
