Controversies

[edit]

In 2012, Yuan Renguo (袁仁国), former chairman of Kweichow Moutai was exposed as holding a press pass from Consumption Daily, was called "China's most powerful journalist"[7] by some Chinese language media.[8] After the incident, the press cards of Yuan Renguo and others were cancelled. The Consumption Daily explained that Yuan Ringuo had been a special correspondent for the newspaper many years ago.[citation needed]
