SinoVision was a U.S.-based Chinese language television network. SinoVision has offices in Lower Manhattan, Flushing, and Brooklyn. It has correspondents in Washington, D.C., Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Houston. SinoVision was founded in 1990 by personnel dispatched to the U.S. from the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office (OCAO) and its China News Service to counter negative perceptions of the Chinese government following the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests and massacre. SinoVision is formally owned by Asian Culture and Media Group, which also owns the newspaper The China Press. According to academics Larry Diamond and Orville Schell, OCAO "set up the firm in the early 1990s but hid its financial role." According to Reporters Without Borders, SinoVision and The China Press are "discreetly controlled by the Chinese authorities and use content taken directly from China’s state media." According to Larry Diamond and Orville Schell, "SinoVision’s content echoes China's official media. The vast majority of its stories about China, Sino-American relations, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and other important issues for the PRC government are taken directly from official Chinese media outlets or websites, including CCTV, Xinhua, and the People’s Daily." In a letter to its advertisers on July 9, 2024, SinoVision announced that it would end its broadcasts on September 1, 2024.
