Taiwan News

Taiwan News

"Taiwan News" (formerly "China News") is one of the three English-language newspapers in the Republic of China (Taiwan), the other two being the "Taipei Times" and the "China Post". It is published by the food manufacturing company I-Mei, which also publishes the Mandarin-language news weekly of the same name ("Taiwan News"; the title being in English).

The China News was established in Taiwan in 1949. At that time, the China News was published in the afternoon. The China Post was launched in 1952. It was published in the morning. In order to compete with its new competitor, the China News had to change and was published in the morning in order not to lose its advertisements.

Its name was changed to "Taiwan News" after I-Mei, a Taiwanese food manufacturing group purchased it from Simone Wei in 1999. Since coming under the ownership of the I-Mei Group the editorial policy of the Taiwan News has been in favour of the Pan-Green coalition.

On 1 January 2008 the Taiwan News started publishing in a tabloid format replacing the old broadsheet style.
