Yesterday, the Nation published a news article about a new agreement between the Thai cable television company True Visions and the Phoenix TV group. The full article is here.
An executive commenting on the agreement stated that the Phoenix TV group is "like the Eastern CNN." Indeed, True Visions has positioned Phoenix TV's news programming and content on channels directly in between the channels carrying major sources of Western media, CNN, BBC, CNBC and Bloomberg. This would appear to be progress for the Chinese leadership's efforts to engage in a public dialog on an international level. The Phoenix news channels broadcast on True Vision are Chinese language, but we imagine that there may be some serious efforts underway among Chinese media companies to build English language broadcasts on a global scale.
