Video: BBC and New York Times report on first Hong Kong National Security Law case with misleading headlines and contents BBC和紐約時報報導首宗香港國家安全法案件,標題和內容具有誤導性. 中英字幕
The first case to be tried under Hong Kong’s new National Security Law has concluded. A 24-year-old man will be jailed for 9 years for ramming his motorbike into a group of police officers while carrying an independence flag.
Western media have been frothing at the bit to use this case to paint Beijing in a bad light, but their ability to downplay the man’s potentially deadly actions should be limited, right? Wrong!
@The New York Times and @Wall Street Journal seem to be purposefully manipulating readers by implying the man was jailed simply for protesting, while @BBC News did a surprisingly “OK” job. @Associated Press? Absolute fail.
Come with me as I analyze how the world Reports on China.
