Printing Propaganda—China Paid US Media Millions
This makes me furious! They didn't even make me an offer! But seriously, with the help of the China Uncensored 50-Cent Army, we're kicking the CCP's butt!

"This makes me furious! They didn't even make me an offer!" Hehe, you're a lost cause to the CCP. Besides they'd need to back track on their existing reporting of you, and we know the CCP can't look like they made a mistake.
Chris, could you please get Abhijit Iyer-Mitra on the show? He's one of the best strategic / security analysts in India, and incorporates economic, social, political, bureaucratic and geographic considerations, backed by OSINT and ground intelligence (including his experiences in Tibet and China) into his analysis. He speaks informatively at length on multiple subjects and would fit quite well with the China Unscripted format. In various videos, he's spoken about the Chinese sinicization experience with their minorities, including the (dis)similarities with the Soviet assimilation experience in Central Asia (which ultimately did quite well, since they were able to mold a tribal and religious ethnic Muslim population into a Euro mold), about nuclear proliferation with Pakistan, about their BRI projects, and the long term issues with them, about their relations with Pakistan and Russia, and about their military strategy with their neighbors, including the recent border tensions with India, although I'd like to hear his views on Taiwan and Japan too, given the recent US move to sail three carrier groups to the region, and Abe's more overt policies against China. I'd also be interested to hear his thoughts, if any, on the possibility of Chinese involvement in the US protests. He's quite popular in India, and I've seen him do follow up interviews with channels he's built a good rapport with, so if you don't get to cover everything in one call, and if the viewers like him, hopefully we can get him back again. Here are some (smaller) examples of his talks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tKeQzVVuanc (3:46 - on the Indo-Russia-China relationship in Asia) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D7tXp0A2IWA (14:11 - an early video on the CCP Flu - guess who else calls it the CCP Flu) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Q_yxmvOBiY (21:21 - Indo-China-Pakistan nuclear deterrence, this is a little longer, but one of his more popular early talks) For some reason, my first attempt at this comment got removed. Hopefully, I don't need to type this again.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tYEvwE9ycKA This one is a long form interview (~2 hrs) that covers more of his China views in depth, but it also gets very technical and India specific in a lot of places (since that reflects what the audience desires on that channel). Having this on CU would help disseminate his China insights to a broader audience.
CCP only needs to pay relatively small sums of money to bribe key persons in western organizations to betray values and their countries. CCP has always been bringing out the worst in people and exploit it for their own benefits, killing millions and countless suffering in the process.
It's the old saw...give them enough rope and they will hang themselves. But things are always more complicated in reality.
Do you actually pull questions out of that hat, or do you pick and research them before you make these videos?
It's funny. I recently had the same thought as well. I think the hat thing basically happens off air (if there is more than one question from viewers), but everything on the show has to be researched beforehand. There are screenshots from news articles, and other facts presented on viewer questions - that can't happen impromptu.
Mr Chappell, Would love an accounting on international media access in Communist China and survey of US media outrage at their expulsion.
A Mother Teresa type should be put in charge of the WHO. Really...
Or even just someone competent, but ideally a change in their organization structure is needed. We can't rely on leadership. These organizations need to be able to function irrespective of who is in charge. Part of the problem with international organizations like these, whether it is the WHO, World Bank or IMF, is that elections are always political. That fact won't change. International organizations like the WHO do offer critical capabilities, particularly for parts of the world which do not have the infrastructure and organizational capacity that developed nations have, so ensuring that they continue to function irrespective of who is in charge is important. I don't know what the solution is, but making the leadership roles largely ceremonial, and playing perhaps the role of announcing major policies to the press, is one option. The head of the WHO should have powers akin to Miss World or Miss Universe, a pretty face, in a cozy role that does not significantly impact the operations of the organizations, which should remain strenuously independent and apolitical.
Please do a story on Trudeau and the CBC being nothing but puppets of the CCP. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6cpSd9e83lA&t=37s
Claws of the Panda, the book, does much for things in Canada.
