Do you have any actual examples?
Chinese TV & newspapers spend most of their time speaking about how good China and Chinese companies are rather than caring about US companies. Lots of Chinese people are not aware of the "trade war".
I'm not asking for many just 1 recent example.
- nullwasamistake 7y agoI'm not going to take your obvious bait. There's thousands, use google
- kibibu 7y agoIt didn't look like obvious bait to me, just asking for a single recent example.
- nullwasamistake 7y agoThere's clearly many examples out there to support any opinion. The only reason to ask for a single article instead of giving concrete opinions is to derail the topic by trying to point out flaws in whatever you find. It's a really common trolling tactic. You can see the user responded anyways when I refused to participate. Why didn't they just say that the first time?
- adinobro 7y agoI'm not actually trolling. I'm interested in reading an article like this. I've seen people talk about them and looked for them but not seen one. The ones I've seen are just boring. Sorry if you thought it was a troll. It sounded like you knew an actual source that I could check out rather than just rumours.
- JCharante 7y agoA new account refusing to back up its claims? Maybe it's because you know you'll get banned for your baseless anti-China propaganda.
- adinobro 7y agoI live in China as an expat. I haven't seen any bashing of US companies from the media in the limited amount of Chinese media that I consume. There is propaganda everywhere but it is about China. They don't tend to bash other countries but keep going on about how good China is. They just ignore everyone else because China is everything. The US media bashes China all the time but that may just be because I read English news. If you have seen the Chinese equivalent I would like to check it out since I haven't seen that side of China yet. The Chinese people are strongly nationalistic just like people from the USA (I'm from Australia which is nice ... but not really important). Social media is big over here and people organise boycotts of companies all the time. You said "state-controlled media puts out massive amounts of propaganda railing foreign firms" and "China is far worse". It should be easy to find one if this is true otherwise it is just "fake news" that gets repeated so often that people think it is true. It should be easy to find one example.
- yorwba 7y agoI've had trouble finding anything more recent than https://news.sina.cn/gn/2018-09-13/detail-ihkahyhw6080560.d.html?from=wap https://news.sina.cn/gn/2018-09-13/detail-ihkahyhw6080560.d.... When Apple disambiguated the US Virgin Islands from the British Virgin Islands, someone wrote an angry article about it, because they felt that Hong Kong and Taiwan should be labeled as Chinese territories. Limiting searches to xinhuanet.com does yield massive amounts of propaganda, but mostly about how great foreign companies think China is. Maybe I'm just using the wrong search terms, though.
- adinobro 7y agoThanks, Yorwba. I guess I've been desensitised to the whole Taiwan issue. They do go on and on and on about it and any company that refers to it separately rather than as part of China. There was the issue about the airlines recently as well. I just skip over those stories but there are a lot of them.
- dis-sys 7y agoI read both Chinese/English sources and I am really interested to read your mentioned propaganda. Once your source is provided, those who don't read Chinese can get a little bit help from Google Translate as well, I found its quality to be really good.
