Duowei News (traditional Chinese: 多維新聞; simplified Chinese: 多维新闻; pinyin: Duōwéi xīnwén; lit. 'multidimensional news'), originally named Chinese News Net,[1] was a Chinese language news website established in 1999 based in New York City, United States. The website was also known in English as Multidimensional News,[2] which is the literal translation of its Chinese name. It specialized in Chinese political news.[3][4]

Duowei News was blocked in Mainland China. In 2013, Jason Q. Ng of China Digital Times and Citizen Lab[5][6] considered the outlet to be critical of mainland China and the PRC government's policies.[7] According to Radio France Internationale in 2018, the site has been accused of having a pro-Beijing view point and promoting Chinese Communist Party propaganda.[8] It was viewed as one of the independent Chinese language media outlets in the United States that later were taken over by pro-Beijing businessmen.[9]
