Environmental News & Chinese propaganda

“I have enjoyed Living on Earth for years . It carried interesting stories of people taking action to protect our planet from environmental destruction. But in early February I heard a troubling segment that changed my opinion of the program. An interview was broadcast with Natalie Ma of “state-owned” Shanghai Daily. If you missed “state-owned “ you would have no idea you were going to be subjected to a whole, undigested segment of Chinese government propaganda on the Olympics.
The interviewer asked MS Ma nothing about the ethics of holding the Olympics in the middle of a pandemic. Nothing about the environmental destruction caused by the Olympics, the disappearance of Chinese Olympic star Peng Shuai, Tibet, the Huigurs etc..Instead we were treated to a steady stream Olympic happy talk by Ms Ma with no serious questions by the Living on Earth interviewer. My attempts to contact the program, the interviewer or PRX did not get a response. I’m disappointed that a program funded by listeners and public funds would air such deceptive propaganda from a repressive dictatorship without telling us what they were doing.”
