The Global Times (simplified Chinese: 环球时报; traditional Chinese: 環球時報; pinyin: Huánqiú Shíbào) is a daily tabloid newspaper under the auspices of the Chinese Communist Party's flagship newspaper, the People's Daily, commenting on international issues from a Chinese nationalistic perspective.^[1]^[2]^[3]^[4] The publication is sometimes called "China's Fox News" for its propaganda and the monetization of nationalism.^[5]^[6]^[7]^[8]

Established as a publication in 1993, its English version was launched in 2009. The editor-in-chief of Global Times was Hu Xijin until December 2021, who has been described as an early adopter of the "wolf warrior" communication strategy of loudly denouncing perceived criticism of the Chinese government and its policies.^[9] The newspaper has been the source of various incidents, including fabrications, conspiracy theories, and disinformation.^{[note 1]} It is part of a broader set of Chinese state media outlets that constitute the Chinese government's propaganda apparatus.^[17]^[18]
