NBC: related to GE and microsoft. Seems somewhat neutral. We want to
keep them neutral and factual allies.
ABC: owned by Disney. Politically neutral-liberal. Normally seem neutral
to China. But in this case, their attempt to cater to the anti-Chinese
sentiment in the US backfired in the face of their effort to increase their
appeal in China market. Disney needs to attend to their core values. China
-US interests are not inherently opposed, but trying to do this kind of 2-
faced trickery really is superhuman or subhuman, whichever you prefer.

News Corp: owned by Murdoch, who also owns fox and wall street journal.
political right. Courting China in the past, but recently exited the China
market.
CBS: somewhat liberal related to viacom.
CNN: liberal. Pro-Union. Has an anti-China bias that blames China for
everything that they could get away with. The Union workers were fed
whatever lines that help them rationalize their lives. But our job is to
look for common interest and tolerating differences.
Washington Post: owned by amazon founder. Politically liberal. Not
inherently anti-China.
NPR: owned by public. tends to be rational and neutral. good place to
donate to and support local communities and media.
Journalists are supposed to speak truth to power. But this is reality boys
and girls. They will try to do whatever they could to guard their own core
interests, including twisting your words, hiding information from the
general public, be condescending and humiliating. So talk to the media with
some caution, silence or asking questions are the best way to deflect
sensitive questions.
Three rules in life:
1. It's way better to make friends than make enemies.
2. Our job in life is to convert enemies into friends, and keep our friends
friends. Appreciate our friends and accept sincere offer of peace by
our enemies.
3. Better to learn from others than talking. Ask questions if challenged.
Be calm and rational. |
