Our media should be doing this too.

BBC’s Andrew Marr confronts China’s ambassador to the UK, Liu Xiaoming, with horrifying drone footage of shackled, blindfolded and shaved prisoners believed to be Uighur Muslims. Powerful to watch him struggle with his response as footage plays beside him.

This isn’t real
Replying to @marwilliamson
Why should they? The US has been busy demonizing Muslims since the creation of Israel. The media reflects the pure arrogance of the ignorance of the American people. If my fellow Americans are so outraged by the media, I suggest they take a look in the mirror.

He had zero answer.

They should be but they’re not. Why? Could it be that the media’s business model depends on ratings which depends on fabricating as much outrage as possible? The media care more about renaming Army posts than they care about the Chinese genocide of the Uyghurs.

I'd rather they do it with American politicians first.

Our media is barely covering the protests going on in our country and the federal and police abuse happening to them. Our main stream media is part of the political/corporate machine now.

Maybe we don't need to incite even more anti China hysteria, marrianne? Where did this drone footage come from? Is it recent? What year? What's the context? We have no information. Without more context, all this does is incite my hatred and fear and paranoia.
