News Re****ting: On October 15, 2004, Hong Kong-based Wenweipao
re****ted that China's 20th satellite returned to earth, falling on and
destroying the house of Huo Jiyu in Penglai Town****p, located in Dayin
County, Sichuan Province. The re****t quoted Dayin County government
office director Ai Yuqing saying that the "black lump" was confirmed
to be the satellite. Ai was himself the on-site deputy director of the
satellite recovery project. However, Xinhua News only re****ted the
time of the satellite's recovery, emphasizing that this was the 20th
scientific and technical experimental satellite recovered by China.
Xinhua News did not mention a word about the satellite destroying a
house. This is a typical example of the Chinese news media's
consistent practice of re****ting only the good news and covering up
the bad news, as instructed by the Party.
Lies and slander published by newspapers and broadcast on television
have greatly assisted the execution of the CCP's policies in all past
political movements. The Party's command would be instantly executed
by the media in the country. When the Party wanted to start an Anti-
Rightist Movement, media all over China re****ted with one voice the
crimes of rightists. When the Party wanted to set up the people's
communes, every newspaper in the nation started to praise the
superiority of people's communes. Within the first month of the
persecution of Falun Gong, all television and radio stations slandered
Falun Gong repeatedly in their prime time broadcasting in order to
brainwash people. Since then, Jiang has utilized all media repeatedly
to fabricate and spread lies and slanders about Falun Gong. This
includes the effort to incite nationwide hatred against Falun Gong by
re****ting false news about Falun Gong practitioners committing murder
and suicide. An example of such false re****ting is the staged
"Tiananmen Self-Immolation" incident, which was criticized by the NGO
International Educational Development as a government-staged action to
deceive people. In the past five years, no mainland Chinese newspaper
or TV station has re****ted the truth about Falun Gong.
Chinese people are used to the false news re****ts. A senior re****ter
of Xinhua News Agency once said, "How could you trust a Xinhua
re****t?" People have even described Chinese news agencies as the
Party's dog. A folk song has it: "It is a dog raised by the Party,
guarding the Party's gate. It would bite anyone the Party wants it to
bite, and bite however many times the Party wants it to." ...
