CNN’s signal in China appeared to be censored halfway through CNN’s Will Ripley reporting on the ousting and replacement of China’s foreign minister Qin Gang after a long absence from the public view.

      You’re calling 1984 anti-semitic because of Emmanuel Goldstein, aren’t you? Way to totally miss the point of why Orwell chose that name for that “character.”

      Given that your very first piece of evidence of how CNN lies about China is them saying tiananmen square happened, and your “disproof” is just a link to a random website entirely devoted to denying the massacre happened, it’s pretty clear why you’re not exactly getting a positive response

      Edit: The second disproof is literally just the Chinese government saying it isn’t true, which isn’t exactly thorough evidence

      If you exclusively take the statements of a government as unquestionable truth, you’re going to be wrong a lot, regardless of which government you choose

      Yes the country that censors everything, everyone, and has an entire setup to stifle information is the good guy
