There are plenty of human rights abuses in eastern China against Hans even that get reported without mentioning Uighurs. I’m sure you can find a few those in the current stack of China articles from those sites, they make them easy to find.

Eg they released Liu Xiaobao’s widow today from imprisonment for...reasons. No references to xinjiang: https://www.wsj.com/articles/china-lets-widow-of-dissident-n...

First, that was from last month, before the Uighur issue was blowing up, not today.

Second, that was a positive followup to a negative story, not a new negative story.

Only a Chinese could view that as a positive but ok; in the west we consider it negative because it reminds everyone she was imprisoned in the first place, not to mention her husband’s plight.

Sorry, I didn’t look at the time stamp, wsj just doesn’t cover China as frequently as they used to. Here is one from August 2nd on nyt: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/08/02/world/asia/china-sun-weng...

Oh, and if you consider safe vaccines a human right: https://www.economist.com/china/2018/07/26/a-vaccine-scandal...

Nary anything about xinjiang.
