How The Epoch Times Created a Giant Influence Machine
"Since 2016, the Falun Gong-backed newspaper has used aggressive Facebook tactics and right-wing misinformation to create an anti-China, pro-Trump media empire."

- redis_mlc 5y agoFYI: I watch NTD media (Epoch Times) daily on Youtube. The link in the parent is the infamous hit piece done on NTD by NYT because US MSM (and/or leftists) are losing subscribers and viewers by 60+% since Biden entered the WH - the MSM is in a business death spiral. You'll find similar pieces on Joe Rogan, Dave Rubin, etc. for the same reason - all who are Liberal moderates. NTD is one of the best sources of actual reporting in the world today. They're anti-Marxist and anti-China, so that makes them by default pro-Trump, who is a Liberal moderate. - they're demonetized and their subscriber counts are frozen across their 20 Youtube channels. This proves they're legit, along with the NYT hit piece on NTD linked in the parent. - in the past year, they've had no story retractions, whereas the US MSM has monthly retractions on US politics and corona news. That's the difference between actual reporting with two sources, and being a leftist organ. - NTD interviews weekly current and former US top officials. Nothing that NTD has said contradicts what other experts say (aside from Fauci, who's a habitual liar.) - the NTD China-related channels combine Western and Chinese sources, so you can see what's really happening with political and business events in China I suggest you watch NTD for a month, then compare with what you see on cnn.com. It's amazing the difference in quality of reporting. NTD today is like CNN in 2000, before CNN lost its credibility.
