Count China Media News as originally supportive of News Views & Reviews when it was first launched a couple of years ago. At first, the idea of compiling what was happening in the news in an easy-to-read format seemed quite palatable. The magazine contained interesting stories focusing on news and politics, which is often difficult to find in mainland China.
Unfortunately -- at least for some -- NVR has published its last issue. The magazine has suspended operations in a fast-changing media environment in Shanghai, where the magazine was based. For further information on what has transpired, we direct you to a post on Shanghaiist which does a good job of rounding up what is being said.
Rumors are also swirling about the future of That's Shanghai magazine. The magazine, which was once distributed for free, now carries an RMB 18 price tag. However speculation the magazine is in financial trouble remains only that -- speculation.
