(2/4/2021,England) In the UK, broadcasting laws say licensees must have control over their service and its editorial policies.
However, Star China Media Limited (SCML), which owns the licence, doesn't have day-to-day control over the channel China Global Television Network (CGTN) .
The regulator said it was unable to transfer the licence to that company because it is "ultimately controlled by the Chinese Communist Party, which is not permitted under UK broadcasting law".
In revenge, China banned BBC news as a return.
(2/12/2021, Beijing) China has banned BBC World News from broadcasting in the country, its television and radio regulator announced on Thursday.
China has criticised the BBC for its reporting on coronavirus and the persecution of ethnic minority Uighurs.
Observation: The investigation of influence of Chinese Communist Party’s propaganda, shows us that those CCP’s overseas media are trying to brainwash/misleading the western world specially targeting to new generation by promoting the advantages of socialism and communism.
Recent years the western countries like UK and USA were aware such a trend so now they were standing up for defending Democracy and Freedom. This is a war of our core value which is a war without gunpowder and it is very different from any war we had before.
