The Oriental Morning Post[2] (Chinese: 东方早报; pinyin: Dōngfāng Zǎobào),[3] or Dongfang Zaobao,[4] also known as Oriental Morning News,[5] was a Shanghai-based[6] Chinese-language morning newspaper published in China.[7] The newspaper was jointly founded by Nanfang Daily and Wenhui Xinmin United Newspaper Industry Group (文汇新民报业集团)[8] on July 7, 2003.

In the fall of 2008, Oriental Morning Post was the first media outlet to expose the melamine contamination of Chinese infant milk powder. [10]
