Chinese Media Allegedly Use Hongkongers to convince Chinese Mainlanders to receive China-made COVID-19 Vaccine
Since Nov 29, 2020, multiple media in China have been reporting that “close to 90% of Hongkongers hope to receive COVID-19 vaccine developed by China”.
All these articles described that the number of cases are rising again in Hong Kong for unknown reasons. According to them, on Nov 29, 2020, a group called “COVID-19 Vaccination Concern Group” held a press conference and presented results of a poll that showed 96.9% of Hong Kongers "felt confident in COVID-19 vaccines developed by China", and 88.6% would like a shot.
It was also reported that the said Concern Group was founded by Beijing loyalists such as the self-proclaimed “flag bearer” Lam Wai-man. The poll was purportedly conducted from Nov 25 to 28 through an "online platform". Among the 8,189 participants, 7,820 were "Hong Kong local citizens", and 177 were residents of the Guangdong Province in China who held Hong Kong citizenship.

No ‘Negative’ News: How China Censored the Coronavirus
In 2020, the whole world has been extensively affected by COVID-19, which was originally called "Wuhan Pneumonia" at the early stage of the outbreak because of its alleged origin. The pandemic has led to the lockdown of many countries, the suspension of economic activities and the separation of families.
In an investigative report published by The New York Times on Dec 19, 2020, it was revealed that the Chinese Communist Party government stage-managed what appeared online in the early days of the outbreak and downplayed the severity of the coronavirus.
The New York Times wrote,
“At a time when digital media is deepening social divides in Western democracies, China is manipulating online discourse to enforce the Communist Party’s consensus.
To stage-manage what appeared on the Chinese internet early this year, the authorities issued strict commands on the content and tone of news coverage, directed paid trolls to inundate social media with party-line blather and deployed security forces to muzzle unsanctioned voices."
For example, regarding the death of the whistleblower Dr. Li Wenliang, who had been threatened and prosecuted by the Chinese authorities, on Feb 7, 2020, China "ordered news websites not to issue push notifications alerting readers to his death. They [Chinese authorities] told social platforms to gradually remove his name from trending topics pages. And they activated legions of fake online commenters to flood social sites with distracting chatter, stressing the need for discretion".
The New York Times also found that "Chinese officials tried to steer the narrative not only to prevent panic and debunk damaging falsehoods domestically. They also wanted to make the virus look less severe — and the authorities more capable — as the rest of the world was watching."
According to Xiao Qiang, a research scientist at the School of Information at the University of California, Berkeley, and the founder of China Digital Times,
“China has a politically weaponized system of censorship; it is refined, organized, coordinated and supported by the state’s resources. It’s not just for deleting something. They also have a powerful apparatus to construct a narrative and aim it at any target with huge scale.”
“This is a huge thing,” he added. “No other country has that.”

No ‘Negative’ News: How China Censored the Coronavirus (Published 2020)
Thousands of internal directives and reports reveal how Chinese officials stage-managed what appeared online in the early days of the outbreak.
UK Revokes a China's Media CGTN Broadcasting license and Beijing Rebuts BBC as "Fake News”
China Global Television Network (CGTN), a subsidiary of China’s state-owned China Central Television, has been repeatedly questioned as biased. The Office of Communications (Ofcom) in the UK announced to revoke the local broadcasting license of CGTN today. On the other hand, the Chinese Foreign Affairs Ministry criticized a BBC report from last month as fake news linking politics to the pandemic and asked for apologies.
Ofcom confirmed on Thursday after the investigation that Star China Media owned the broadcasting license of CGTN. However, this company has no right to control the editorial content of this station. Therefore, it does not meet the legal requirements for the license.
CGTN once requested to transfer the broadcasting license to a company called China Global Television Network Corporation. However, as the “important information” for the application is missing and the company are ultimately controlled by CCP, Ofcom refused the request for license transfer. Ofcom emphasized that they have already given enough chance to CGTN, but they still failed to comply with the law, so they decided to revoke its license.

#ChinaDaily Caught Promoting China with Stolen Photo of #Switzerland, After Criticizing Western Media's Credibility
China Daily, China's state-owned newspaper, released a satirical cartoon via its Twitter account on May 10, 2021, suggesting that "western media lacks credibility".
The account subsequently shared a promotional video on sightseeing in China, which showed a natural landscape with the hashtag “#ChineGlamour”. However, German and French TV station #ARTE（Association Relative à la Télévision Européenne) discovered that the landscape image was taken by a travel blogger, and was in fact recorded in #Brienz, Switzerland. The image is then flipped horizontally, and the blogger's watermark cropped out.
The blogger criticised China Daily’s #plagiarism, and mocked them for promoting China with a stolen picture of Switzerland. China Daily had since deleted the video without apologies.

Pro-Beijing media claim first aider shot by police in the eye in Hong Kong protests is “completely healthy”; HK Police refuses to comment
Recently, multiple pro-Beijing media published an "update" on the female first aider who was shot by the Hong Kong police in the eye during the 2019 Anti-ELAB movement.
The horrific injury inflicted by the police on the woman had fueled public anger and sparked a round of #Eye4HK protests in 2019.
However, pro-China media claimed that she was “completely healthy with no eye injury”. Their reports also alleged that she had left Hong Kong in 2020 and that the Hong Kong police is now investigating whether the first aider participated in rioting.
On May 25, 2021, Stand News sent an media inquiry to the police regarding the progress of the said investigation. These questions include the exact happening during the clash; information on the officer who shot the girl; verification of the shot being the direct caused of the girl's eye injury; the police's knowledge of the whereabouts of the girl; and confirmation of the police's request of the girl to take part in their investigation.
The only response from the police is that they "declined to comment on particular media reports."

China says Microsoft hacking accusations fabricated by US and allies
The US and other Western countries on Monday accused China of hacking Microsoft Exchange - a popular email platform used by companies worldwide.
They said it was part of a broader pattern of "reckless" behaviour that threatened global security.
China says it opposes all forms of cyber-crime, and has called the claims "fabricated".
China's foreign ministry spokesman said the US had got its allies to make "unreasonable criticisms" against China.
The UK, EU, New Zealand, Australia and others joined the US to accuse Chinese state-sponsored hackers.

Facebook takes down China-based network spreading false COVID-19 claims
//The parent company of #Facebook and #Instagram said on Wednesday, December 1, 2021, it has taken down more than 600 accounts, pages and groups connected to a Chinese influence operation spreading #COVID19 #disinformation, including an account purporting to be a fictitious Swiss biologist.
The China-based network was one of six #Meta, formerly know as Facebook, removed in November for abusing its platforms, a reminder that bad actors around the world are using social media to promote false information and harass opponents.
The China-based operation came to light after the company was alerted to an account purporting to be a Swiss biologist named Wilson Edwards (no such person exists). The account posted claims on Facebook and Twitter in July that the U.S. was pressuring World Health Organization scientists to blame China for the COVID-19 virus. The posts alleging U.S. intimidation soon appeared in Chinese state media stories.//

China uses deepfake technology to fake news reports
According to AFP, US-based social media research firm Graphika released a new report, claiming that China is using Deepfake technology to create fake new anchors in order to spread deceptive political content. The report analysed a video by the fictitious media outlet “Wolf News”, featuring two news anchors, a man and a woman. However, while the anchors initially looked natural, their hairlines remained stiff and their robotic voices often did not sync with their facial movements. The subtitles contained many errors as well.
