CNN
China's government is using new intimidation methods against journalists and their sources, according to an annual survey by the Foreign Correspondents' Club of China.
The report, which was released Monday, said foreign correspondents are facing "unprecedented hurdles" covering the world's most populous nation. Those hurdles include online trolling, cyber hacking, visa denials and physical assaults.
Almost all the foreign journalists surveyed said that reporting conditions in China did not meet what they considered to be international standards. The survey was conducted in December 2021, and includes responses from 127 of 192 correspondent members representing news organizations globally.
