If someone’s coordinating the US media, they’re also doing the same to high quality UK outlets too. The FT and Economist have been publishing a lot of stories that are very critical of the Chinese government.

I agree it’s good to question. What do we think may not be true? I can fact-check HK situation via personal sources to some extent. The other stories that I’ve seen recently are those about re-education camps for (reported) hundreds of thousands of Muslims in the country, and the campaign against Huawei’s involvement in 5G and other projects.

I noticed the “2 million people on the streets stat” wrt HK was met by the government with a number in the tens of thousands. That’s a ridiculous discrepancy; at least one party is outright lying. Perhaps fact checking that stat would be a good indicator of how much to trust the Chinese media vs the protestors or western press.
