Another newspaper I've been following for their international coverage recently, Singtao from Singapore: (it's all in Simplified :wink:)

The language they use is quite easy to follow, though haven't come across any in-depth reporting yet, but enough to give me inspiration for the News-related word of the day thread...

I remember that two years ago I could download current and previous issues of 人民日报 from their site. Now I just can't find that option. However, there's a paid registration (supposedly, for getting newspaper in PDF). Hence, the question: do they now charge for accessing the PDF version? Just curious. If there's still a free option, please give me a link.

Reviving an old thread.

 

Searching for alternatives to the tired and tiresome 人民日报 of my student days and other major newpapers and online news sources, I recently came across this newspaper:   

https://www.thepaper.cn/   

It's called simply: "The Paper" (澎湃) and is published by Shanghai Oriental Press Co.   
https://www.thepaper.cn/about_paper.jsp  

 

I find it very readable:  it has a nice clean interface (no adds, no deranged animations!); covers a wide variety of topics including local/regional and international news, economy, lifestyle, media, books & arts etc.; has moderate length articles; is quite well written and is even humorous in parts.

 

Note: There's at least one more newspapers' thread with suggestions and links in the Forums:

When it comes to regular newspapers I mostly read 自由時報,it's not great, but I find it a good way to keep up to date with news from Taiwan.

 

I also quite like buzzorange, especially their tech section. It's a lot less dry than a regular paper. The "life" section of the website is very fluffy and clickbaity though.
