Inside the Firewall: Tracking the News That China Blocks

Every day since Nov. 17, 2014, ProPublica has been testing whether the homepages of international news organizations are accessible to browsers inside China. Of the 18 in our test, 9 are currently blocked. The most-blocked news homepages over time appear to be the New York Times (Chinese, International, and US), Bloomberg, and (since the 25th anniversary of the Tiananmen Square massacre on June 4, 2014) the Wall Street Journal.
