    BBC News Banned in China

    BBC World News Banned From Airing In China | ZeroHedgeState-run media CGTN published a statement from the State Administration of Radio, Film, and Television on their Weibo account detailing the rules BBC violated and how it "has been barred from airing in China."

    The State Administration of Radio and Television does not allow BBC World News to continue landing in China] After investigation, BBC World News's China-related reports seriously violated the "Regulations on the Administration of Radio and Television" and "Administrative Measures on the Landing of Overseas Satellite TV Channels".
    It is stipulated that it violates the requirement of truthfulness and fairness in news, harms China's national interests, undermines Chinese national unity, and does not meet the conditions for overseas channels to land in China. The State Administration of Radio and Television does not allow BBC World News to continue to land in China, and it is new One-year landing applications will not be accepted.
    BBC World News has been barred from airing in China, the National Radio and Television Administration (NRTA) announced, saying some BBC's reports on China infringed the principles of truthfulness and impartiality in journalism.

    CGTN gets banned for political purposes in the UK. Now China returned the favor.

    There is no reliable, unbiased media available via the internet. It’s all doctored or opinionated. (See any BBC article opined by their chief political correspondent, or anything that Cyrille quotes from the Guardian).

    Seekingass just makes up his own bullshit, and tries to make it sound realistic. Any source he dares to mention is a remain bias posting from somewhere obscure. (I.e. anywhere between his floppy ears).

    Oh look, switch is shooting messengers and wallowing in ad hom yet again.

    And for once he's on a thread where the pathetic weakness of his counter argument doesn't stick out like a sore thumb.

    That's a de facto ban.

    This is great news. More countries should crackdown on 'news' agencies that spend blatant propaganda and false information.

    Is this supposed to be something new? The chinkies routinely blackout BBC, CNN, TVB, Bloomberg, etc. whenever they start talking about those naughty chinky human rights abuses or disgusting things like democracy.

    BBC World Service shortwave radio blocked in China

    Published 5 February 2013

    OCTOBER 16, 20145:26 AM UPDATED 6 YEARS AGO

    China blocks BBC website as Hong Kong tensions rise
    OF course the real reason the chinkies have engineered this "row" to block the BBC this time is it because it broadcast a report about them abusing Uighurs and they just don't like the truth being talked about do they?

    This story barely got a mention.


    BEIJING (AP) — CHINESE authorities are blocking access to Clubhouse, a social media app that allowed users in China to discuss sensitive topics with people abroad including Taiwan and treatment of the country’s Muslim minority.

    The move adds Clubhouse to thousands of websites and social media apps to which the ruling Communist Party blocks access in an effort to control what China’s public sees and reads.

    China Blocks Clubhouse, App Used for Political Discussion | Business News | US News

    Of course Hoohoo will be along in a minute to remind us:

    It really does make you question the BBC's credibility, doesn't it.

    Being blocked by China and Thailand.

    And being accused of bias by Switch and Captain Nemo.

    Yes, I don't think I'll ever be able to trust them again.

    I will use reliable, unimpeachable sources like "VLADTV" and "MRSHITHOLENEWSNETWORK".

    CGTN banned in Germany now too due to some
    agreement they had with the UK

    CGTN off the air in Germany after UK pulls Chinese broadcaster’s licence

    Either way , CGTN is just an RT wanna be. The world was groping for an official anti US broadcaster in the 2000's. RT filled that role. CGTN will never be RT

    Why not debate the opinion in my post, instead of sending worthless red repo and personal insults. Is it because you are unable to debate the topic, or are you just blinded by irrational hatred of someone who might disagree with you lofty opinions?

    Which is the better option? Allow everyone to believe the impartial stance of the BBC, or use a Chinese blanket ban? It’s not like you ever posted from the darkness is it ............

    It's pity, the BBC such a credible source. They tried so hard to sell Iraq war, who would not remember poor Dr. Kelly?

    And the docs of his "suicide" investigation are frozen for 70 years...

    The success of RT speaks to the demand. Do you even know that its the most viewed news network on the internet ? Russia started RT in part because of the Iraq war. There was no alternative coverage in the lead up to the war
