Q: Is China the country with the most "good" news stories?
There's no news like bad news...except in China? Would you say things are evenly balanced?
One reason I stopped watching Chinese TV about two years ago was "too much good news." First few months in China I spent time watching CCTV English...God damn man! I am not getting any news that is little bit negative. I switched channels to Chinese language programs. Gosh!!!!!!!!! To many red flags. Or, poor guy loving reach girl or vice versa and same old stories like Indians.
Just after two months, I stopped paying and now the TV is covered with dust. Anyway, I was never a TV guy nor I will ever be. 24 hrs internet, and I can get the whole world which is better than watching those craps on TV.
No. China's news formula goes like this;
- Top story, some place other than China sucks
- Things in China are great
- The Communist Party of China is working to make it eve greater!
Or how about the total bias BS towards the US, outright lies when it comes to trade disputes... you know, I'm stopping there cause I get too pissed.
It's a hidden secret but I don't think they show too many bad news here. But really I think there is so much good news because the fact they don't want to show the public too many bad news otherwise it could cause a stir.
