WASHINGTON—The Falun Dafa Association of Washington DC has called for The Washington Post to cease publishing advertising supplements by the Chinese communist-controlled newspaper China Daily, which are inserted into its print editions and can be found online.

Association spokesman Frank Lee said at a news conference, Feb. 2, “We are deeply saddened to see the Washington Post, one of the most respected newspapers in the country, sacrifice its principles for profits, and assist an evil regime to spread its propaganda to the American people.”
