What companies will be featured on China's national television network on Saturday when it airs 3.15 Evening, an annual muckraking program for World Consumer Rights Day?

After targeting Volkswagen, Apple Inc, Carrefour SA, Toyota Motor Corp and The McDonald's Corp in the past three years for allegedly treating Chinese customers differently from those in other countries, State-owned broadcaster China Central Television came in for some criticism itself for double standards toward Chinese and foreign companies.

"You can surely criticize Apple. But you shouldn't be blind to the markedly more defective products made by Chinese companies, which are much easier to find", wrote Li Chengpeng, a famous Chinese blogger.
