| Mar 24, 2023 at 6:00 | comment | added | Qiulang | @WS2 the point I were making in my update was I don't know! I don't know whether Mr Vittachi's accusation were valid or whether the introduction about him(at my question) in valid, i.e. he is someone you can count on when talking about politics in Asia. So I updated my question. But from your reply I saw my intention was not clearly expressed. | |
| Mar 23, 2023 at 17:09 | comment | added | WS2 | @Qiulang I thought the point you were making in your question was that the BBC was one of only two worldwide news organisations which covered it at all. Now you are sending me a tweet from someone complaining that the BBC gave it minimal coverage compared to elsewhere. So what do you think? Mr Vittachi is probably just as critical of the New York Times's coverage of China as he is of the BBC's. Just because the BBC has extensive worldwide coverage it does not mean that it follows anything other than its own editorial policy when covering news from places like China. | |

| Mar 21, 2023 at 9:08 | comment | added | Qiulang | @WS2 then what is your opinion about this tweet twitter.com/NuryVittachi/status/1635482295321722880 ? I don't know this guy Nury Vittachi or Fridayeveryday.com. It is probably a pro-beijing website. I can't tell. | |
| Mar 15, 2023 at 8:42 | comment | added | Qiulang | @gerrit I heard that a lot but I also heard it is probably a stereotype. I never live there so I don't know. | |
| Mar 15, 2023 at 8:16 | comment | added | gerrit | Because they're more interested in celebrity nipples, sports results, or the latest development in what one commentator said about what one political candidate said about another in the Republican Primary in Idaho? | |

| Mar 14, 2023 at 20:46 | comment | added | WS2 | @JonathanReez The BBC believes it is the best international news service in the world - and it probably is. Like insurance, financial services and cartography, international news gathering is one of those industries where Britain has retained a role, applicable more to its pre-eminent 19th century position than to the country's relatively diminished status today. In the case of finance London is assisted by it's geography. E.g. The London FX market is open before Tokyo goes home for the night and it is still open when New York wakes up. The BBC has the same sort of advantage. | |

Is 3.14 a timestamp? You can encode it directly in the URL (so it will immediately start playing from there), in this case appending &t=3m14s (eight letters) to it.

| Mar 13, 2023 at 23:24 | comment | added | Criticizing Israel not allowed | @StuartF Western countries might also be embarassed about such atrocities because they pay for them. | |
| Mar 13, 2023 at 20:24 | comment | added | JonathanReez | @hszmv to give another example, the conflict in Ethiopia had about as many victims in 2022 as the war in Ukraine. How many nations dedicated at least 1 week of front-page coverage to that conflict? Probably zero, outside of Ethiopia and it's neighbors. | |
| Mar 13, 2023 at 20:22 | comment | added | JonathanReez | @hszmv how often does German media reports on events in South America / how often does Australian media report on events in Central Asia? There's only so much space on the front page of a newspaper. Every country reports primarily on domestic events, then about China/US, then a bit about everyone else. The US isn't any worse in this regard. | |

| Mar 13, 2023 at 14:46 | comment | added | hszmv | U.S. news media is notorious for being very poor on reporting on international stories unless it involves U.S. interests or major tragedies. Americans as a whole do receive a stereotype of being rather ignorant of most of the international community with terrible geography skills and larger portion of the population who have never traveled abroad. That said, it's not entirely deserved, but it's not wholly undeserved. | |

| Mar 13, 2023 at 13:02 | comment | added | Stuart F | Does it have any immediate impact on the west? Stories from Iran or Saudi Arabia are normally only reported if they are particularly sensationalistic (the dismemberment of Jamal Khashoggi was an exciting story, but lots of other Saudi atrocities go completely unreported - e.g. the war in Yemen, or many other human rights abuses. Likewise a lot of Iranian news is unreported, and the women's protests are arguably under-reported despite a lot of sensationalistic detail.) Likewise, Chinese trade deals or diplomacy are seldom reported. | |

| Mar 13, 2023 at 7:44 | comment | added | NoDataDumpNoContribution | "it is such a big deal" Is it? Nobody really knows. Maybe compare the US news coverage of the topic to other nations coverage (for example take some random country from each continent). Maybe you would find that most news organizations didn't cover the deal a lot. I myself am not sure how significant the deal is. I guess the future will tell. But I definitely saw one or two articles about it in the NYTimes. | |
