国内英语新闻:China builds teaching, research base for socialist journalism

BEIJING, May 29 (Xinhua) -- A teaching and research center for socialist journalism with Chinese characteristics opened in Beijing on Sunday.

The teaching and research base, a joint project between Tsinghua University and Fudan University, will facilitate the implementation of instructions on news reporting issued earlier this year by the central authorities, according to Deng Wei, deputy secretary of Tsinghua University's Communist Party of China Committee.

"We should develop journalism in China with a thorough understanding of the good aspects of journalism in other countries, so that wrong or harmful content can be identified," said Tong Bing, a professor at Fudan University.
