Sure, the quality of mainstream news is always, and has always been, a problem. More education and improvement in understanding is always a good thing. But you're not making any interesting points there, and you have no way to quantify that "most of them are like Gordon Chang". And the problem I see is that people have a tendency to find poor sources of information and use them to dismiss entire categories of information and positions.

By the way, your statement was about "Western China watchers," not some or even most. You may not have meant it that way, but that's how you said it.

Okay fine. Although I did mention MSM.
