Thirty-Seven Years On, a Wound That Never Closed
A former star of Chinese state television turns her camera on a Taiwanese journalist wounded in the Tiananmen crackdown — and on the limits of what witnesses could say at the time.

The Propaganda Office of the Chinese Communist Party’s Tibet Autonomous Region Committee serves as the chief office responsible for communicating the agendas of the local party leadership and overseeing state-run media in Tibet, including the mouthpiece newspaper Tibet Daily (西藏日报). It coordinates party ideological work throughout the region while simultaneously operating under multiple official names — including the Regional Government Information Office allowing it to exercise comprehensive control over news, publishing, and cultural production. The department functions as the central enforcer of the party’s media discipline, ensuring all local outlets maintain proper political orientation in line with central and regional level directives, particularly regarding sensitive topics related to Tibetan culture, religion, and territorial claims.
