BEIJING (Reuters) - Chinese officials should take a lesson from the selflessness of President Xi Jinping in not living extravagant lifestyles or separating themselves from the people, Chinese state television said in the latest episode of an anti-corruption documentary.

Xi has waged a sweeping war on deep-seated graft since assuming power almost four years ago, vowing to go after powerful "tigers" as well as lowly "flies", warning the problem is so bad it could affect the Communist Party's grip on power.
