China imposes strict rules on news sites
The Chinese government announced new regulations Sunday to control content on the country's news Web sites.
Under the new rules, news sites should only post news on current events and politics, according to the the official Xinhua News Agency.
Only "healthy and civilized news and information that is beneficial to the improvement of the quality of the nation, beneficial to its economic development and conducive to social progress" will be allowed, Xinhua said.
News sites are also "prohibited from spreading news and information that goes against state security and public interest."
