U.S. Orders Chinese State Media to Cut Staff in U.S. by 40% By Nick Wadhams March 2, 2020, 1:00 PM EST Updated on March 2, 2020, 1:22 PM EST
The Trump administration ordered four Chinese state-owned news outlets to cut their Chinese staff in the U.S. by about 40%, amid a broader response to Beijing’s restrictions on American journalists and the expulsion of three Wall Street Journal reporters last month.
Starting March 13, the four outlets will be allowed to employ a combined 100 Chinese citizens in the U.S., down from about 160 now, two State Department officials told reporters Monday on condition of anonymity. The officials insisted that the reductions weren’t expulsions, though the 60 or so employees will almost certainly have to leave the country.
The outlets affected by the move are Xinhua News Agency, China Global Television Network, China Radio International and China Daily Distribution Corp. A fifth, Hai Tian Development USA, is also included under the cap but only has two Chinese employees on its payroll in the U.S. so won’t have to cut staff.
“Unlike foreign media organizations in China, these entities are not independent news organizations,” Secretary of State Michael Pompeo said in a statement after the two officials briefed reporters. “As we have done in other areas of the U.S.-China relationship, we seek to establish a long-overdue level playing field.”
The restrictions stem from an effort by the Trump administration to restore what officials call reciprocity between the way China and the U.S. treat each other’s journalists. China currently allows about 100 Americans in the country and has severely restricted the number of visas it issues to foreign reporters.

The administration began mulling expulsions in earnest after China last month ordered the departure of the three Wall Street Journal reporters -- two Americans and an Australian -- after saying the outlet had refused to apologize for a “racially discriminatory” headline on an op-ed piece. U.S. officials have also said the reporters were expelled because of the Journal’s coverage of a Chinese government crackdown on Uighur Muslims in Xinjiang province.
The Journal has defended its reporters and, like most U.S. outlets, said it operates with a strict separation between its news and opinion staffs. The op-ed piece in question referred to China as “the real sick man of Asia.”
Monday’s move is a direct outgrowth of a State Department decision last month to designate Xinhua and the other four outlets as “foreign missions.” That means their employees in the U.S. are treated as foreign government employees, not journalists. The five are “effectively controlled” by China’s government, Pompeo said in the statement.
The staffing reductions apply to any Chinese citizens working for the four news organizations in the U.S., whether they are reporters or managers or technicians. The outlets can still hire as many Americans as they like. Hai Tian wasn’t included in the new cap because it currently has only two Chinese staff on its payroll in the U.S., the officials said.

这是wsj的link： https://www.wsj.com/articles/u-s-orders-cap-on-chinese-state-media-personnel-11583172000 U.S. Orders Cap on Chinese State Media Personnel State Department to force reduction to 100 employees from 160 WASHINGTON—The Trump administration is ordering China’s major state media companies to sharply reduce the ranks of Chinese nationals in the U.S. in retaliation for years of tightening restrictions on American news outlets by Beijing. State Department officials announced Monday that a personnel cap is being imposed on four Chinese media companies, forcing them to reduce their Chinese employees in the U.S. to 100 in total, from 160. The four outlets targeted—Xinhua News Agency, China Radio International, China Global Television Network and China Daily—must comply with the new limits by March 13, the officials said. Those outlets purvey Chinese government views, and the State Department last month said their U.S. operations will be subject to the rules for representatives of a foreign government, not treated as independent news media.

明明是中国跟美国死磕
说这话的真是令人无语。这肺炎哪来的??? 谁传播到全世界的??? 厉害国要是像十几年前那么穷，哪来那么多出国留学或者旅游的，那病毒根本就传不出国门!这次疫情过去，不但美国，希望全世界都加速跟厉害国脱钩，把制造业回流或移到别国，把不知感恩，狼子野心，专门输出病毒/垃圾留学生/商业间谍的流氓厉害国打回原形。
中国传过来的肺炎，要治根治本

是，看出川普的力度了！
小五毛们应该优越感爆棚啊，它们在监狱里用VPN没有被驱逐出美国的危险啊
装的
传回去图文并茂地说“CDC证实首例新冠病毒源于美国”也挺烦人的不是。
在美国的粉红的确要小心了， 川普不是吃素的。 全收拾了可能不会，但抓些典型拿出来公开羞辱，川普是能做到的。
是呀，如果如实报道应该没什么问题的。
都是国内外派来的肥缺。 之前不是有爆料说央视的美国台长年薪快20万美元了，还有各种补贴和业务费用，爽死。
北京也很有力度的：
http://media.people.com.cn/n1/2020/0226/c40606-31604442.html
北京日报：《华尔街日报》为何死不道歉
不出来恶心美国华人的话，倒也无所谓了，反正花的是韭菜的钱
大外宣是党的政策！ 当年李长春给温家宝一口气要了至少500亿美元。之后年年还有外宣经费。就是养这些人的。你说的自媒体和个人，那都是小开销。
买美国媒体啊！你不看看彭博社都亲共成什么样子了啊？ 纽约时报当时也被治的很老实啊。 有外宣经费就能在美国媒体投放广告，美国媒体也是靠广告吃饭的。
哈哈
留了100个人，还是太多了
可以继续减
就没见过说实话的。外交部发言人都能当着全世界的面张嘴胡说，何况几个拿薪水的记者。
这些人滚蛋之后，歪哥的压力会不会小一些? 等些日子看看版上五毛会不会变少，拭目以待！
还是有点用的，我们这有点小事情，比如发了小洪水（就是某几条国内村头那种大小的路积水了），来了只黑熊什么的，我爸妈知道得都比我清楚。
一帮垃圾，赶紧通通遣回，一个都别留
随便网上截点图编两句，face mask翻译成面罩。豆瓣小组里面扒拉一下帖子。
愿意请留学生的都算肯花钱的了。
期待呀
太赞了， WMFH们倒数的日子开始了。
不急。慢慢来。还有入籍的时候隐瞒过加入共产党组织的，以后都会清算的。
嗯，大五毛被驱逐，房顶花不出去，小五毛们可能每周还能加个鸡腿呢。
哈哈，这个还真是很有可能的。
这也能爽死？离华人贫困线还差半米呢。
看来美帝很清楚人日不是搞新闻而是搞宣传的。
还是太多了， 应该参照美国媒体人在中国的比例
要看比例，不是绝对人数！
童言无忌啊！
这个很难做到吧，中国教授实验室不可能没有中国交换学者
包包应该感谢老川，这是为他精减机构省点美元呢……
一步步来。
留学生也要按照这个比例进行处理。
同时学科也要对等。
谁说的，你看睿大妈和米奇粉红都还天天蹦达。
莫非表现好抢到了宝贵的名额？
啰嗦半天就是想说，这些当年的同事可能某种程度上是既得利益者，也没有利用自身职业改变现状的勇气和斗志，但大部分也就是普通人，对个人口诛笔伐没有必要。
你就是抄板，真能装
