Sep. 26, 2005 hollywoodreporter BEIJING -- China said Sunday it is imposing new regulations to control content on its news Web sites and will allow the posting of only "healthy and civilized" news. The move is part of China's ongoing efforts to police the country's 100-million Internet population. Only the United States, with 135 million users, has more. The new rules take effect immediately and will "standardize the management of news and information" in the country, the official Xinhua News Agency said Sunday. Sites should only post news on current events and politics, according to the new regulations issued by the Ministry of Information Industry and China's cabinet, the State Council. The subjects that would be acceptable under those categories was not clear. (AP) |
