They're not wrong though, Global Times editorial is an example of CPC telling English readers what they want hear, one could argue how much commitment there is behind these sources but they are representative.

The Economist and WSJ also speaks for the capitalist class, WSP literally interfered in the election. I don't see the big deal or embarrassment about China having their "official unofficial" media.

Think about the opposite, would you allow your state affiliated media to just talk random shit that could seriously affect the economy and foreign relations?

Yes, but anglo sources are never labeled with the "state media" thought-terminating epithet. It's the double standard I have a problem with.
