No - and certainly not on any appreciable or meaningful scale.
The bill's proponents claim that intelligence agencies have found proof of this, and that the proof is classified and therefore cannot be shown to the public. (If you're over the age of 30, you're almost certainly getting early 2000s flashbacks reading that sentence).
> Is this the only media outlet this applies to?
No. The ban applies to TikTok, but as pointed above, not to Chinese (or Russian) state media, which do directly control the content shown to users.
