It’s entertaining and completely in line with what you would expect out of media and propaganda. There were a bunch of interesting Soviet missions that are basically unknown and obscure in the West. And this Chinese station seems quite notable, but again I basically never hear about it. But then that’s expected, NASA has a massive PR arm that makes sure the tax payers are well informed of its accomplishments. The CCP knows that even if it put massive resources into western media outreach, western news sources would be talking about human rights abuses in the next breath. And it’s extremely rare for a paper to do actual investigative journalism, so even if a western journalist found this station particularly newsworthy, they would have to do all the heavy lifting to get the story published. And probably be getting some explicit or implicit political pressure not to focus so much on a non-ally’s success.
