Beijing (CNN Business) In the latest round of tit-for-tat between Beijing and Washington targeting each other's media outlets, Chinese authorities have imposed new visa restrictions on foreign journalists working for US news organizations in China amid growing bilateral tensions.. CNN has learned that reporters being targeted include both US and non-US citizens from several major US media outlets, including the Wall Street Journal. The US State Department revealed Sunday that its diplomats in Beijing had recently been informed of the Chinese government's impending measures targeting US media in China. In May, Washington limited the duration of stay for most US-based Chinese journalists to 90 days. If no approval is granted, the Chinese journalists will have to leave the United States by early November, exactly when Culver's new Chinese visa is set to expire.
