Again you construe publicly owned and government-owned

I do not misconstrue anything, here. Public property is accomplished from within the ownership of government, a news organization being a worker coop doesn't mean it is immune to bourgeois influence.

true, and a government being elected also doesn't make it immune to bourgeois influence, and especially not to influence from the politicians themselves

Correct, which is why you need to understand that the class in power in the PRC is the proletariat and the party structure gains its legitimacy and power from the bottom-up.
