Departments of cyberspace affairs at various levels should guide website platforms to establish dedicated “news accounts” and require the verification of licenses or qualifications as a prerequisite for setting up such accounts, the release added.
All online channels providing internet news services to the public, including website platforms, social media, applications and livestreams, should prominently display the entity’s name and license number in approved channels, according to the release.
For websites and content platforms, they will be required to optimize their algorithm models and information recommendation mechanisms, with a priority given to high-quality news information published by “news accounts”.
The campaign will expand channels for complaints and reports, actively handle and verify clues related to illegal activities, and publicly expose typical cases, the release said.
