When I lived in China, I'd never heard of April Fools Day. It seems to be a western thing. Hence this ban isn't all that relevant inside China.
From the examples it seems like China is actually trying to ban April Fools Day for western media, but the article doesn't make this clear, and it's difficult to imagine that is the case. So I find it hard to take this article seriously.
