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.

AI to analyses facial expression and skin pores of the tied suspect

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."

Foreign reporters being abused in China isnt new - whether it’s due to COVID or Xinjiang reporting.

What’s new is now China seems to be driving them out for reporting floods too.

Barbaric 🙄

Oh and in case you didn’t see it in the tweet, they mistook one journalist for another. 😂 Is this racism?

Chinese embassy in UK 'firmly opposes' BBC's reporting on 'Chinese Taipei' Olympic team -statement

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.

"There is only one China in the world, Taiwan is an inalienable part of Chinese territory, and the government of the People’s Republic of China is the sole legal government representing the whole of China," the embassy said.

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.//

2023-08-07 1435 #中國 #留學生 #大外宣 #文化入侵 #英國 #倫敦
周日(8月6日),幾名中國留學生在小紅書和Instagram等社交媒體表示,他們在倫敦的一面牆上用紅色顏料寫下了在中國司空見慣的24字政府宣傳標語。

「我們在倫敦刷了一面牆。」一位名為「不跑糯辣」的博主在小紅書上寫道,「充分弘揚社會主義核心價值觀……歡迎大家打卡!」

這一事件迅速在中文社交媒體引發討論和爭議。有網民稱讚「一秒回中國」、「文化輸出」,但亦有不少網民批評「強化中國負面印象」、「文化入侵」。

該活動的策劃、英國皇家藝術學院(Royal College of Art)的中國留學生「一鵲」(網名)對BBC表示,他在事後收到了很多指責,但該事件的發酵和他「想表達的並無任何關係」。

在現場拍攝的畫面中,紅磚巷(Brick Lane)的一部分——一段長約百米的道路——兩側都被刷成了白色,其中一側的牆壁上噴上了12個漢字詞語:富強、民主、文明、和諧、自由、平等、公正、法治、愛國、敬業、誠信和友善。

該活動的策劃者「一鵲」在Instagram上將他們的塗鴉命名為「反者道之動」,目的是「用社會主義的構建方式來反殖民西方的虛假自由」。

他直言不諱地地解釋說:「借自由民主之名彰顯著西方的文化中心,這是倫敦的自由」,「這樣的自由便是西方對東方主義的建構,其內裏隱藏著極大的文化階段的權利不平等和剝削」。

很多批評者強調他們覆蓋了一些精美的創作,其中似乎包括一幅致敬逝者的繪畫。

「他們本可以只用一面已經噴繪的牆,但卻如此貪婪地蓋過這麼多優秀作品。這是問題所在。」在倫敦的藝術家蘇西·盧雅德(Susi Luard)批評道。

此前,「一鵲」在帖子中表示,很遺憾遮住了很多藝術家的作品,但是「可能這就是自由的代價」。

在該事件引發爭議後,8月6日(周日)有一些反對者前往該塗鴉牆,在這些學生所噴塗的「社會主義核心價值觀」上噴寫其他內容以示抗議。例如,有人在「自由」下寫道「No freedom in China」(中國沒有自由),還有人貼上了反對習近平的標語。
