China Digital Times (CDT) is an independent,bilingual media organization that brings uncensored news and online voices from China to the world. We achieve this through: Filtering and aggregating news from English-language media and placing it in a broader social and political context; Amplifying the voices of Chinese citizens through translation; Revealing the hidden mechanisms of state censorship by collecting and translating filtered keywords,propaganda directives,and official rhetoric; Interpreting the resistance discourse of Chinese netizens by introducing and translating the codes,metaphors,and satire created in response to breaking news and censored topics. CDT English was launched in 2003 as a blog to track the development of the Internet in China and quickly grew into a more comprehensive news portal. In 2010,we launched CDT Chinese to aggregate content that has been censored or blocked in Chinese cyberspace. We select the most valuable and relevant material from CDT Chinese to translate for our English readers. CDT is based in Berkeley,CA,but our team contributes to the site from across the globe.
