Chinese Journalists Have Own Festival

Chinese journalists now have their own festival -- "Journalists' Day", which is set for November 8. Journalists' Day has been approved by the State Council, the paper said.

The festival for the 550,000 Chinese journalists will be a work-as-usual holiday, just like the country's Teachers' Day and Nurses' Day, when they have to work on their posts.

The date was chosen because on November 8, 1937, the China Young Journalists Association was founded by left-wing reporters headed by well-known journalist Fan Changjiang in Shanghai.

The establishment of Journalists' Day will encourage all Chinese journalists to carry forward the fine traditions of their profession and continue to make great strides in this area.
