Granted that their military is huge. They last time I looked there are several problems with it. The first being with no standing threat why would need that large of a military? China's active military is about 2.3 million. Yet they really don't have any outside commitments? Something is going on that either we (our government) doesn't talk about (I know hard to believe) or that we don't know about (considering the CIA's record very believable). Another problem they have that we have picked up on is very poor quality equipment. I believe that are working on that problem but aircraft and tanks are not cheap, even there. I read a report about 25 years ago that claimed that Chinese combat aircraft had a service life of just a couple hundred hours. Don't know if it was true or not. But like us they have a budget. Few (about 25 or so) years back they claimed they were going to a 6 million man active military. They got up to about 3 million and cut back to current levels. Just too expensive.
AS far as news? I get mine from several sources including CNN, CBS and Fox. I really think of CNN and CBS more as indoctrination like the Soviet Tass news agency was rather than real news. Telling me what they want me to know and telling me what to think.
