Western media has a tendency to see China through a pair of gloomy glasses, and thus often are so certain that next Tuesday is China's doomsday. Here are ALL the headlines (contains the word "China" ) from Yahoo News in the last 3 days. 12 out of 13 have negative words in the headline: ------------------- Xi Jinping has run into the one thing in China he __can’t control__ China's Boom Has World Bank __Worried__ The South China Sea is now a 'core interest' of Beijing — and that's a __problem__ for its neighbors China’s __aggressive__ posture toward the South China Sea has been __stirring tensions__ in the... China hunts for "manipulators" as stocks __tumble__ Is ‘China in Africa’ something to __fear__? China __angered__ by new U.S. military strategy report China says tourists __attacked__ in Turkey during __anti-China protests__ China Has World’s Fastest Trains, U.S. Lags China’s __insatiable appetite__ for power Zeroing in on __empty homes__, China throws developers a lifeline S. Korean official falls to __death__ in China China's __Unsettling Stock Market __Collapse__ ------------------- I wanted to record the headlines for a month, produce a fancy chart and demonstrate how extreme and rampant the bias is, but I keep forgetting about doing it. Besides, it's probably well known that most media outlets from any country (including the USA) are shit, so why beat a dead horse? Before you shout "foul", I agree we can debate all day on whether a particular word really has negative connotation. Oh, China's media outlets are shit too, even shittier. As long as we get information from as many diverse sources as possible, we should be fine. The problem is majority of folks has been fed biased information since childhood, and once a system of beliefs and images is established it's nearly impossible to shake it off.
