CNN Misreported China's Protection Of Intellectual Property Rights
Andrew Korybko- Unlike how CNN dishonestly misportrayed it, China's shutting down of a major website that violates intellectual property rights is something that the whole world should applaud.
Unlike how CNN dishonestly misportrayed it, China’s shutting down of a major website that violates intellectual property rights is something that the whole world should applaud.
The front page of CNN International ran a story on Wednesday dishonestly titled “A content crackdown” with the subheading reading “China has shuttered its largest website for pirated entertainment. Fans mourn a window to the uncensored world”. Clicking on the article leads a piece with the changed title “How a Chinese website for pirated TV shows became a cultural touchstone for millennials”. Nectar Gan, described by the outlet as CNN International’s Digital Producer based in Hong Kong, then proceeds to sympathize with users of pirated content. She dishonestly portrays them as victims of strict cultural censorship.
