1st Ld-Writethru: China to show only "ethically inspiring TV
series" in prime time from next month
BEIJING, Jan. 22 (Xinhua) -- China's broadcasting watchdog will
impose stricter restrictions over prime time TV series from February
2007, an official has said.
The country's satellite TV stations should only screen "ethically
inspiring TV series" during prime time, said Wang Weiping, an
official in charge of TV programs under the State Administration of
Radio, Film and Television (SARFT).
The restrictions will go into effect beginning February and last
for at least eight months, according to Wang.
