- teknologist 7y agoSCMP has become a CCP mouthpiece after Jack Ma bought it.
- the_duke 7y agoThe post doesn't contain much in terms of commentary, but it does include a quote describing this as a "psychological warfare tactic", so it doesn't seem to be that biased yet.
- majia 7y agoSCMP still publishes a lot of anti CCP articles and is banned in China.
- loyukfai 7y agoVery much untrue, CCTV, People's Daily, Global Times, now those are CCP mouthpieces. That being said, one is not being unreasonable to suspect their level of editorial independence could be influenced.
- teknologist 7y agoThe "whataboutism" of naming other media outlets doesn't really help your argument here. You only just have to open the SCMP front page to find them calling military deployments in a stadium near Hong Kong "drills", citing anonymous sources that say "they are not of concern" and quoting liberally from anonymous posters on Chinese message boards spouting hate.
- loyukfai 7y agoI just did and I couldn't find the thing you mentioned, mind to share the link?
