Foreign journalists in China face surveillance, intimidation and "police tea" sessions

The Foreign Correspondents' Club of China (FCCC) annual report describes systematic surveillance, intimidation and harassment of foreign journalists working in China. Conditions for foreign correspondents have deteriorated so severely that pressure and monitoring have been labelled a "new abnormality." Practices include informal police interrogations known as "tea sessions," meant to pressure reporters into self-censorship.
