China's Communist party ran campaign to discredit BBC, thinktank finds

China’s Communist party (CCP) orchestrated an international campaign to undermine the BBC and discredit its reporting during the first two months of the year, using western social media networks. Posts on Facebook, Twitter and YouTube which platforms are blocked in mainland China, were uploaded by diplomatic and state media accounts, and pro-Beijing influencers, and then amplified by troll networks.

Three main approaches were repeatedly deployed to try to undermine critical reporting from the UK’s public broadcaster.

The posts claimed that the BBC was biased and spreads disinformation, alleged that domestic audiences in the UK don’t trust its reporting, and said that its coverage of China is instigated by spy agencies or foreigners hostile to Beijing.

China Takes Aim at ‘Illegal’ Club for Foreign Correspondents

China slammed a Foreign Correspondents’ Club of China (FCCC) as an “illegal organization,” broadening its attack on journalists whose reports differ from the government’s official line. While Beijing has long described the FCCC as illegal, the rebuke as a whole was longer and more detailed than in the past.

The BBC’s China correspondent John Sudworth recently left Beijing for Taipei. That followed criticism from the government over the broadcaster’s recent coverage. The BBC News Press Team said in a statement that his reporting “exposed truths the Chinese authorities did not want the world to know.”

The Communist Party-backed Global Times characterized Sudworth’s work as biased.

#CCP has recently driven a #BBC reporter out of #China. "As my family scrambled to the airport - late and unprepared from the last-minute packing - we were watched outside our home by plainclothes police, who then followed us to the airport and tailed us through check-in," said John Sudworth. There is absolutely no concept of #PressFreedom in their minds and we should lose the hope that they would improve.

BBC: Xinjiang Police test emotion-detecting AI on Uyghurs

It was revealed earlier that Alibaba’s facial recognition technology can be used to identify Uyghurs. Afterwards, Alibaba announced that they have eliminated any ethnic tag in their products. However, a Chinese software engineer showed to BBC's “Panorama” programme that, Xinjiang police are testing emotion-detecting AI. Some human rights activists described the incident as shocking.

The software engineer who did not disclose his company showed 5 photographs to BBC, saying that China is testing emotional recognition system. He claims that his job is to install such systems in police stations in Xinjiang. “The Chinese government use Uyghurs as test subjects for various experiments just like rats are used in laboratories”, he said, “We placed the emotion detection camera 3m from the subject. It is similar to a lie detector but far more advanced technology."

The Chinese embassy in the UK "firmly opposes" the BBC's reporting on the participation of Taiwan's "Chinese Taipei" team in the Olympics, it said in a statement on Monday.

China Aims Its Propaganda Firehose at the BBC

Chinese trolls and fake news websites have been attacking the BBC in a bid to undermine its credibility, new research published today claims. The online influence operation, which is being linked to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), is seemingly a response to the BBC’s reporting on human rights abuses against Uyghur Muslims and state-backed misinformation campaigns.

The new research from analysts at cybersecurity company Recorded Future claims that the “likely state-sponsored” operation used hundreds of websites and social media accounts to attack the BBC’s reporting. In particular the network has accused the BBC of adding a “filter” to its reports from China to make the country look dull and lifeless.

Foreign journalists harassed covering China floods, correspondents' club says

Journalists from several media outlets covering recent floods in China were harassed online and by local residents, with staff from the BBC and Los Angeles Times receiving death threats, according to the Foreign Correspondents' Club of China (FCCC).

In a statement on Tuesday, the FCCC criticised what it said was growing hostility to foreign media, some of which it said was fanned by official bodies.

"There must be immediate action by the Chinese government to stop these attacks which continue to endanger foreign journalists," the BBC said in a statement on Twitter.

Chinese man held over #racist videos and claims his aims to spread Chinese culture

A Chinese filmmaker wanted by Malawi as part of an investigation into allegations of racism and child exploitation has been arrested.

#LuKe was a #Malawi resident when he was exposed by #BBC #AfricaEye, which reported he had used local children to film personalised greetings videos, some of which included racist content.

These videos can be bought for up to $70 (£55) on Chinese social media and internet platforms.

Lu Ke denied making derogatory videos.

He said he made his videos in order to spread Chinese culture to the local community.
In one of the videos seen by the BBC, a group of young children is made to chant - in Chinese - "I'm a black monster. My IQ is low", clearly unaware of what they are saying.//
