BEIJING — One day before a key meeting of China's anti-graft watchdog, the state broadcaster aired a program on how grassroots corruption is being crushed, dispelling any notion that China is losing its grip on graft.
The first of four episodes of "Fighting Corruption for the People" ran on Sunday night, focusing on petty corruption cases including a northeastern primary school director profiting from kickbacks from on-campus meals and an official in rural Sichuan taking bribes from farm project contractors.
