Chen Younglin, defector from Chinese Communist Party and former envoy, exposes Chinese imperial agendaStory here. h/t: Jana
(Emphasis mine)
Through an in-depth interview and never-before-released documents provided to The Epoch Times, Chen detailed the regime's efforts to control Chinese-language media overseas, and through student and community groups acting as front organizations, influence western government officials.
The purpose, Chen says, is to discredit and intimidate five target groups: Tibetan exiles, Taiwanese, Uighur Muslims, democracy activists, and most of all Falun Gong practitioners.
(...)
"The control of the overseas Chinese community has been a consistent strategy of the Chinese Communist Party and is the result of painstaking planning and management for dozens of years," says Chen. "It's not just in Australia. It is done this way in other countries like the U.S. and Canada, too."

Minutes of one of the Working Group's meeting provided to The Epoch Times , dated February 7, 2001, were signed off by both the consul general and deputy consul general of the consulate and included reports on 22 anti-Falun Gong activities. A translation of the minutes is given at the end of this article.
Read it all! Yes, all of it... there's more.
Hmm.... the influence the Chinese Communists exert over the Chinese-language press across the world bears an alarming resemblance to the fearful adherence to leftwing political correctness and apparent willingness to help promote and impose an extremely militant leftist social/political agenda on the part of the Free World's mainstream media (MSM). Alarming... in that the MSM of the Free World isn't truly "free" at all. In fact, the MSM isn't all that critical of the Chinese regime, is it? I mean, where's all the ripping them a new one for such things as the organ harvesting done on living, innocent Falun Gong practitioners?
Where's all the criticism of the fact that, inexplicably, astonishingly, a repressive, murderous nuclear superpower hellbent on world domination is granted the right to host the Olympics? I wonder why! Guess the IOC learned no lessons from having granted Hitler's Third Reich the right to host the Olympics, then... which begs the question: is the IOC evil, as is the United Nations?
The Free World's MSM had better get the message. They don't demonstrate any "freedom", despite being constitutionally guaranteed the right to act as a "free press".
I guess only the blogs like mine and many, many others and non-MSM news organizations (like the Epoch Times) can be trusted as being truly "free".
As for most, if not all, Chinese-language MSM outlets, I'm afraid I cannot accept any claims they may publicly make that they aren't controlled by the infinitely evil, insanely money-loving, murderous Chinese Communist regime.
It's a state of international human rights emergency... that the tyrannical Chinese Communist Party is allowed by the Free World to exert whatever ideological and imperial agenda it pleases... upon the Free World (particularly against Chinese people everywhere) as well as within China.
There needs to be a movement to raise awareness of this reality and put a certain end to it all!
Just as there's already a growing, if unsung-by-the-supposedly-free-international-MSM, movement underway to destroy the Chinese Communist Party so that it can no longer terrorize humanity! The CCP is aware of and fears this movement and is doing all sorts of desperate, deadly things to try to stop it.
But mark my words: the Chinese Communists will soon be out of power.
And those who refused to be part of the movement to end Communist tyranny in China in order to protect the human rights of innocents... will be remembered for their willing, greedy submission and cowardice in the face of the money-waving, sinister Commie regime's imperialist operations in the world.
Interesting, also, that we don't see a whole lot of far-left "demonstrations" against the CCP regime. They're too busy, for example, demonizing the Free World instead for its alleged "imperialist" activities/policies in the world (but at least the Free World's aims are good, as opposed to evil, unlike the aims of the SinoCommies).
