China Tops List of Global Jailer of Journalists, Says Press Group.

China has been identified as the biggest global jailer of journalists with over 100 behind bars, according to Reporters Without Borders. The country also ranked second to last on the group's annual index of press freedom. President Xi Jinping's government has tightened control over society and is one of the biggest exporters of propaganda content. All newspapers and broadcasters in China are state-owned, and websites and social media are required to enforce censorship that bans material that might spread opposition to one-party rule.
