I've been hearing about the Uighur situation for over a decade. Even then, I only heard it on a station that doesn't exist anymore.I do wonder what the hell is going on in journalism.
They know this is happeening yet can't spare some hour to write about it? You can say it doesn't bring clicks but should it matter? Just posting an article reporting on it without being a huge piece is fine enough for now.
If more journalists talked about it, it would create a domino effect for sure.
Journalism ccontinues to be a god damned joke.
However, the situation has continued to get worse since then.
I think the issue is that China/CCP has a lot of investments in western media outlets, so they hamper on the reporting.
Additionally, getting information out of China is difficult, as China closed its borders during the COVID pandemic to western journalists.
Its firewall is hard for people to cross, and its sphere of influence continues to grow.
Right now, CCP is going after HK, Uighurs, and blaming the US for COVID. Along with who knows what other issues are going on in the country.
