Abstract

The article focuses on the expansion of Tibetan-language programming by China National Radio (CNR), a state-owned broadcaster, amid the suspension of Tibetan services by the US Agency for Global Media (USAGM)-overseen Radio Free Asia (RFA) and Voice of America (VOA). Reporters Without Borders (RSF) highlights that CNR increased its Tibetan programs from one to seventeen within a year, filling the information void left by RFA and VOA and promoting Chinese government propaganda in Tibetan communities. The suspension of independent Tibetan-language broadcasts has deprived Tibetans of reliable information on human rights abuses and cultural persecution, while Chinese authorities have tightened control over television access in the Tibet Autonomous Region. RSF calls on USAGM and the international community to restore independent Tibetan media to counterbalance state narratives amid increasing media repression under the Chinese Communist Party.
