CBC Maliciously Mischaracterizes Epoch Times in Effort to Continue to Discredit the Outlet
Recently, some competitor media published biased, misleading reports about The Epoch Times. Please see our past response to NBC and The New York Times (click on the hyperlinked text).
On Jan. 29, the CBC published reports on The Epoch Times’ recent sampling edition delivered by Canada Post.
The national broadcaster’s report was the second top story on CBC’s website on the morning of Friday, Jan. 29, and was the first segment on CBC Radio’s World Report. It was also heavily promoted on CBC radio.
CBC is trying to discredit us by saying we’re covering “the QAnon conspiracy theory” in both its online report and early in its radio segment, which sets the tone for its reporting.
Due to CBC’s Past Bias, Epoch Times Publishes Its Response to Broadcaster’s Inquiry
Please see our response to the CBC reporter’s inquiry after our statement below.
In early January 2021, The Epoch Times published a 28-page sample edition distributed to select areas by Canada Post to grow our readership and subscription base, a common and established practice in the publishing industry.
The sample edition includes and showcases a collection of our articles on national and international news, opinions, health, culture and other lifestyle content, as well as a 10-page special report on Beijing’s persistent efforts to influence, and infiltrate, Canada and the West, including Canadian politicians.
In early January, The Epoch Times began showing up in mailboxes unsolicited. The polarizing paper has been the subject of controversy before due to its sharp criticism of China and other right-wing issues. In the paper s free spring edition, it ran a story with the headline “How the Chinese Communist Party Endangered the World” that accused China of covering up the COVID-19 pandemic. On its website, The Epoch Times describes itself as a paper founded in response to communist repression and censorship in China. It said it uses truth and tradition as its guiding light. In a statement emailed to CTV News, Cindy Gu, the publisher of the paper, said the sample edition was distributed to select areas by Canada Post to grow the paper’s readership and subscription base.
