Is anyone shocked by this? REVEALED: China-Linked Influence Group Paid to Cultivate Dozens of U.S. Journalists and Manufacture “Positive” Coverage of the Chinese Communist Party. Here Are Their Names.
Participants came from The New York Times, The Washington Post, CNN, NBC News, NPR, and Reuters. And many more.
You only think you hate the media enough. You don't hate the enough.
Beijing-aligned political warfare network sponsored 54 American journalists through a program explicitly designed to “improve” coverage of China and generate “positive stories” about Beijing.
The pay-for-play-style arrangement provided airfare, hotels, meals and privileged access to Chinese ministries, state media, government-selected companies and senior officials inside the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, a central institution in the Chinese Communist foreign influence and espionage apparatus. The objective was not simply to show reporters China. It was to change what they told the American people about it.
