Overview
Headquartered in
New York City, New Tang Dynasty (
NTD) Television serves more than
100 million potential viewers in
China and around the world.
Founded by
Chinese Americans, and rooted in traditional
Chinese culture,
NTD serves as a unique bridge between the
East and the
West.
NTD
News, the company's flagship program, strives to provide insightful coverage of China with the highest ethical standards of
Western journalism.
NTD
News broadcasts directly into parts of mainland China via satellite, providing a truthful, uncensored
Chinese-language alternative to
China's state-run media.
NTD News also provides its global viewers with important news about China and the rest of the world in more than a dozen non-Chinese languages, including
English,
Spanish,
Russian, Japanese,
Persian, and
Hebrew.
In addition to news, NTD promotes traditional
Chinese arts and culture through a wide variety of
TV shows and events.
NTD is a
501(c)(3) nonprofit organization primarily funded by individual donations.
Mission &
Background
NTD's mission is to:
• Bring truthful and uncensored information into and out of China
• Restore and promote traditional Chinese culture and values
• Facilitate mutual understanding between the
East and West
NTD seeks to be the world's most trusted authority on news and information about China.
Besides NTD, no major
Chinese language television network reports with complete independence on China.
The Chinese communist regime has long dictated politically related content for all
TV stations inside mainland China. And starting in the
1990s, it began using its economic and political clout to pressure
Chinese TV stations outside China to avoid reporting on the most "sensitive" China-related topics.
In
2001, NTD was founded with the goal of reporting on what other Chinese
TV networks would not. NTD fills an important void in Chinese language media, boldly investigating topics like abuses of power and human rights violations, and making this information available both inside and outside China.
In
2002, NTD was the first Chinese
TV station to report in depth on the Chinese regime's persecution of the
Falun Gong spiritual group.
In
2003, NTD reported on the spread of
SARS in China a full three weeks before
Beijing—and hence Chinese state-run media—acknowledged the outbreak.
NTD continues to report on the Chinese regime's ongoing suppression of Christians,
Tibetans, democracy advocates, and other dissidents—as well as other issues affecting
Chinese people such as food safety and political corruption.
