Reference News (Simplified Chinese: 参考消息, Traditional Chinese: 參考消息, Pinyin: Cānkǎo Xiāoxī), began at December 7 1931, is a newspaper daily which has the largest circulation in mainland China with 3 million [1]. It is published by Xinhua News Agency.

Reference News was at first available only to cadres and their families, but it was made available to the entire Chinese public after competition from news sources had started, and subsequently its circulation dropped from 11 million in 1980 to 4 million in 1985 [2].
