Chinese Airline Passengers See Split Media Reaction to Trump’s Beijing Visit

Chinese residents are closely following the news about the visit of US President Donald Trump to Beijing, watching reports even in the airport departure area before boarding the plane. A report by columnist Viktor Sineok on May 14 noted that on Chinese airlines, passengers are given two newspapers reflecting an ambivalent attitude toward the visit: China Daily, aimed at a Western audience, publishes a large photo of the leaders of the two countries, while the Global Times is limited to just the headline on the cover.
