84 - W.H.O. Can You Trust? feat Amanda Yee
from Ironweeds · host ironweeds
This week we’re joined by Amanda Yee to talk about anti-Chinese propaganda in American media, and the murky funding flows between government and private intelligence services, thank tanks, publications, and self-styled activist movements. Covid 19 has only ramped up anti-Chinese sentiment, and powerful players work behind the scenes to ensure that American media consumers get a very one-sided narrative of what is happening in China. In a bit of good news, some new embryos just dropped--the extinct white rhino may just have a shot at a comeback.
