Hu Xijin (Chinese: 胡锡进; born 7 April 1960) is a Chinese journalist who previously served as editor-in-chief and Chinese Communist Party Committee Secretary of Global Times from 2005 to 2021.
Hu is one of the most popular opinion leaders in China.[1] Hu's writing is often nationalistic and provocative.[2]: 302 According to academic Lin Mao, Hu genuinely regards himself as a professional journalist whose mission is to shape public opinion to make China stronger.[2]: 307 Hu has been accused by the western media of being a political propagandist[3][4][5][6] and an early adopter of China's "wolf warrior" communication strategy of loudly denouncing perceived criticism of the Chinese government and its policies.[7] “Frisbee Hu” (胡叼盘), a nickname for Hu Xijin, arose from a joke that he retrieves whatever the government throws at him.[8][9]The Guardian described Hu as "China’s troll king".[10]
