China welcomes journalists from all countries to cover news in China according to the law, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin said on Tuesday at a daily news briefing.

Wang was responding to the remarks made by Caroline Wilson, UK ambassador to China, on the media environment in China.

The criteria to judge a media outlet is whether it abides by the professional ethics of journalism and insists on the principles of objectivity and fairness, Wang said, adding that some media reports on China by UK companies are biased, full of ideological prejudice and fake news.

Wang said China is always open to foreign journalists, including those from the UK, reporting in China and is willing to offer convenience for their work and life in the country.

"What we oppose is ideological bias against China and fake news in the name of press freedom," Wang added.

The Chinese government encourages the media to monitor public opinion in accordance with the law, protects the legitimate rights and interests of journalists, and protects the intellectual property rights of news publishers, the spokesman said.
