Bloomberg News killed story on the wealth of Chinese President Xi and his family: "Among those in the reporters& #39; sights: the family of new Chinese President Xi Jinping. The story gained steam throughout 2013....That story never ran." https://www.npr.org/2020/04/14/828565428/bloomberg-news-killed-investigation-fired-reporter-then-sought-to-silence-his-wi">https://www.npr.org/2020/04/1...
For context, remember that Michael Bloomberg - the darling of the blue chekist brigade here both broken by Trump & yet desperate for a benefactor for their grift - said that President Xi of China was not a dictator (if Uighur, Christian etal ymmv) https://youtu.be/T3o_fiVfv7M ">https://youtu.be/T3o_fiVfv...
Whatever else one may say of the BBC, DW, WSJ, NYT, WaPo etal, their reporting on China - despite enormous pressure from Beijing, has been straight down the line. The WaPo journalists esp reporting from Wuhan are heroes who deserve prizes https://twitter.com/GrayConnolly/status/1246196376079183872">https://twitter.com/GrayConno...
