    Well you’re right that they’re not truly equivalent, as China’s state reporting is generally much higher quality than the slop that is produced from American State Department outrage mills. But I was addressing your seeming urge to want a truly unbiased source, which I don’t believe exists.

    If you want to trawl through CCTV’s English website for posts about Xinjiang I invite you to do so, I posted that facebook post specifically because it was fresh in my mind from a previous discussion. And calling it “a literal facebook post” as though it’s the rantings of a suburban conspiracy theorist when it’s a post on facebook by a major news agency is more than a little misleading.
