While the China Times exerted itself in critiquing the government for the sake of the public good, it never forgot to place itself in the shoes of those within government. For example, not long after moving to Taiwan, when Chiang Kai-shek was seeking a second term as president, the China Times (then Chen Hsin Hsin Wen) decided to support Chiang in the interests of maintaining a stable Taiwanese polity.
在維護大局安定的前提下，時報儘管對政府多所諍言，但也不忘設身處地的站在政府立場設想，例如遷台不久，先總統蔣公欲第二次連任，時報（徵信新聞）就站在穩定台灣政局的立場，而採取支持態度。
