Taipei Times
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Taipei Times is one of the three English-language newspapers in Republic of China (Taiwan), the other two being the Taiwan News and the China Post. Established in 1999, it is published by the Liberty Times group, which also publishes the Chinese language newspaper the Liberty Times. The newspaper's 2002 reported circulation was 285,130 copies.[1]
In contrast to the China Post, it is widely regarded as taking an editorial line that leans toward the Pan-Green Coalition.
Along with such newspapers as The Guardian, it is a participant of Project Syndicate, established by George Soros.
In March 2005, the Taipei Times web site incorporated a "Wikipedia feature" for its online articles. By clicking on a link marked "Wikipedia", you can view a new version of the article with links to the Wikipedia pages about certain subjects mentioned in the news article.
Every year since it was founded, the Taipei Times has won awards for excellence in newspaper design from the Society of News Design.[2]
