Sixth Tone

Sixth Tone is an online publication that produces informed and insightful content on contemporary China. Like an additional tone to the five of Mandarin Chinese, Sixth Tone offers a new voice to coverage of China, placing the emphasis on the human element of every story. Through in-depth features, up-to-the-minute reports on emerging issues, and illuminating contributions from guest writers, Sixth Tone seeks to uncover what China’s most pressing issues and news mean for real Chinese people.

Not that there's anything wrong with it. However it gets posted here often (I've even posted some it's articles myself) so i think we outta do our due diligence of media criticism.

Sixth Tone is owned by the Shanghai United Media Group which is overseen by the Shanghai committee of the Chinese Communist Party.

It's published in English and is intended for a western audience. This reminds me of other government media organizations like DW or NHK World Japan which publish media about their home country in English intened for an international audience.

So what other questions should we have about Sixth Tone? I'm interested in an discussion about this with y'all.
