China's Influence on Taiwan's Media?

Blog friend Pursuit of Serenity sends this link. Troubling if true. Blurb from eTaiwanNews (RTI is Radio Taiwan International and GIO is Government Information Office):
According to Taiwan media and RTI contributors, GIO claimed that RTI was an agency for "international broadcasting" and should "uphold the image of the Republic of China" and should also not be "too" critical of the Chinese Communist Party-ruled People's Republic of China, apparently in accordance with Ma's policy of promoting cross-strait "reconciliation" and his unilateral call for a "diplomatic truce" with Beijing.
