The BBC Acts as the Vanguard of the CCP’s Suppressing the Underground Churches

by Jin Shen 

(from China)

I’m a Christian of the Church of Almighty God. Living under the dark ruling of the CCP government, I’m very miserable and depressed. I often climb over the wall to read various articles of the BBC. From the BBC’s previous working style, I saw a media demeanor of “being fair, impartial, realistic, and accurate” and saw that the BBC put its editorial value into work well, which is “we seek to establish the truth of what has happened, and we strive to be honest and are committed to achieving due accuracy in our reports.” I felt that the BBC was a trustworthy western media and a just organization that strived for the freedom and democracy for the vulnerable groups.

Recently, I saw that the BBC directly quoted “the Murder in Zhaoyuan, Shandong Province” reported by the CCP’s “mouthpiece” media, the CCTV, and stood on the CCP’s side to discredit the Church of Almighty God. I felt disappointed and sorry about it!

To my surprise, as a rather influential media magnate in the world, the BBC should have respected the freedom of religious belief and paid attention to equal human rights; however, in reporting “the Murder in Zhaoyuan, Shandong Province,” it didn’t make inquiries or investigations about this case or interview the Church of Almighty God. Without any evidence, the BBC affirmed directly that the six murderers are members of the “Church of Almighty God.” Besides, it broadcast the false case full of holes which was engineered by the CCP and was exposed and attacked by the public. Even with the condition that many netizens proved through online manhunt that Zhang Lidong is the owner of a gold miner, the BBC, against its “realistic” editorial value, still held the same opinion as the evil CCP, without making any investigation of the case. We can’t help suspecting the BBC: Is it that the BBC is no longer what it was before? Has it been assimilated by the CCP, the evil party, and lost the media attribute of “being impartial and objective”? Has it become the “mouthpiece” of the evil CCP?

On August 14, the BBC China editor Ms. Carrie actually wrote an article entitled The Chinese Cult that Kills “Demons,” explicitly putting herself on the evil CCP’s stand to make an extended report of “the Murder in Zhaoyuan, Shandong Province.” In the article, she claimed that she interviewed a man named Wang Jiannan. Additionally, according to his one-sided statement, she alleged that the Church of Almighty God is “killing demons,” undoubtedly doing a favor for the CCP’s framing and defaming the Church of Almighty God. Moreover, such a deed is astonishingly similar to the deed of the CCP media’s identifying Zhang Lidong and the others as members of the “Church of Almighty God” without collecting evidence! We can barely understand: As a world-famous media magnate, facing such a special case, it should have made a deep investigation and restored the truth, adhering to the western media philosophy of “being fair, impartial, and realistic.” However, without making any investigations or inquiries about the Church of Almighty God or asking the man for the factual evidence, you willfully accused that members of the Church of Almighty God “kill demons.” Almighty God has worked in China over twenty years and there are millions of followers of Almighty God. If everyone had “killed demons,” how many people would have been killed in China? How many murders would have happened in the land of China? However, why hasn’t the CCP government given us a factual evidence until now?

As we all know, the evil CCP assumes the notorious dictatorship, and it is globally considered as the biggest clique of underworld gangsters embodying lies and violence and it is the most frenzied evil force that suppresses and persecutes the religious belief. As a news media which represents the western universal values, you BBC not only don’t lash out at the deed of the evil CCP’s persecuting religions or defend the suppressed vulnerable groups, but instead become the “mouthpiece” of the CCP, colluding with it to be its alliance. We can’t help asking, “Why do you BBC willingly abandon the media demeanor of ‘being impartial and objective’? Why do you beat the drum for the evil force in the world even at the cost of violating the western universal values? Are you driven by interests? Or are you trying to win the trade of China for the British government?” If this is the truth of the fact, then BBC, how far can you go? Does a media that speaks and defends for the evil force have credit? BBC, you have lost the dignity of a media and you’ll pay a painful price for your consciencelessness. The BBC writes for the evil CCP to suppress the Church of Almighty God. That means it is rubbing salt into the wounds of millions of innocent Christians who are undergoing the CCP government’s inhuman persecution! It is acting as a headsman for the evil CCP, and it is mercilessly strangling Chinese people’s hope of pursuing the freedom of human rights!

The Future of the Media Magnate BBC Is Worrying

by Xiao Xiao

(from Guangdong Province, China)

On August 14, the BBC Chinese website published an on-spot report entitled The Chinese Cult that Kills “Demons.” The article tacitly agrees that “the murder in Zhaoyuan, Shandong Province, China” is related to the “Church of Almighty God,” but also adds a tragedy of the family of a “victim,” Mr. Wang, implying that the Church of Almighty God is a cult that stops at no evil. This is undoubtedly the best assistance and support to the CCP government’s deed of cracking down on the underground churches.

As we all know, since April the CCP has launched a political campaign of cracking down on the “cults” in Mainland China. They not only unilaterally fix a list of twenty “cults,” but also high-handedly suppress the religious people in Xinjiang and other places. And they even demolish the churches and crosses in places such as Wenzhou, Zhejiang Province, arrest the ministers, seal off and expel the house churches, hunt and persecute the Christians….

The BBC’s guideline says, “Trust is the foundation of the BBC: we are independent, impartial and honest.” In over 90 years, as the biggest public news organization in Britain which is subsidized by the government but operates independently, the BBC took part in reporting almost every important news event of Britain. For a long time, the BBC has been considered one of the most respected media in the world. However, what’s puzzling is that after Chinese netizens raise many strong doubts about “the case in Zhaoyuan, Shandong Province,” the BBC actually chooses to issue such an incorrect report at the crucial moment when the world pays high attention to the religious freedom of China. It’s really astonishing and pitiful! Why is the reporting style of a world-class media so similar to the contemptible CCTV? Why does the BBC with the noble identity of the “voice of Britain” sing the same tune with the CCP?

The British government has been concerned about the human rights situation of China. However, to our disappointment, the BBC China editor Ms. Carrie simply stood on the CCP’s side in this report. Although it’s called “on-spot report,” it’s not objective or neutral and the content is partial and impetuous. She not only didn’t interview the Church of Almighty God but also hastily reached a conclusion and determined the nature of it. This way of doing makes people astonished at the BBC’s level of news reporting! We can’t help doubting: On the eve of the public trial of “the case in Zhaoyuan, Shandong Province,” what happened to the BBC, which asserts to “observe a strict neutrality and not to be disturbed by commerce”? How come it published such a report? To our doubt, why does the BBC, always having an insight to the affairs of the world and keeping the whole world in view, willingly act as the vanguard of rumoring and ballyhooing for the CCP? Why can’t it see clearly all at once what kind of party the CCP is? Why does it fail to see clearly all at once that the CCP is an expert at fabricating false news? Additionally, why can’t it see clearly the serious consequence of being hostile to the world, the mankind, and the history due to keeping company with the CCP?

All people of insight in the world see that the CCP is the real evil party and cult. Think back to the over sixty years since the CCP was in power in modern history. Black clouds weigh the country heavily with slaughter and fights everywhere, and bloody atrocities prevail in each place, where wails can be heard and people live in misery. It is these heads of devils weaving the lie of “communism” that pour in the generations of Chinese people the potions of “atheism” and “loving the party and the country” and publicly put the evil party in the place of God. Such a group of devils, which go against Heaven and run counter to right principles, can only bring the Chinese people to hell and to everlasting perdition! China has been claiming that it allows the “freedom of belief.” However, the Church of Almighty God has always been the object the CCP, the evil party, attacks and condemns, and thousands of people are arrested, detained, and cruelly tortured and even to disability or death. In face of these bloody facts, why does the sophisticated BBC play a role that is “silly and naive”? Why does it become selectively “blind” all at once? Is there a benefit chain hidden behind it? What kind of trade is concealed? These are the factors people can’t avoid thinking of.

As a Christian of the Church of Almighty God, I pay attention to the BBC and respect the BBC. So I hope that such an impartial media can be a model of resisting the vicious CCP and be a relatively impartial and true voice in the world. However, what the great majority of netizens worry about is that the public confidence level of the BBC has been declining over the decades. In 2012, due to the exposure of the sexual abuse scandal of its previous ace host and its incorrect coverage of a Parliament member’s child abuse case, the BBC’s CEO and news chief resigned successively, so that the BBC suffered the greatest crisis throughout its history. According to the analyses of various media, what the BBC that broadcasts the report of the facts lost most in this storm was the unrivaled public confidence that it once had owned.

The journalist John Simpson said, “Reputations once lost are very hard indeed to regain. People forget the precise reasons why they no longer have faith in an organisation, but the whiff of untrustworthiness lingers for a very long time. The BBC must have a thoroughgoing reform, though it will be painful. Or we will never regain the high reputation we enjoyed around the world until just a few weeks ago.”

Whenever the crisis of the public confidence comes out, it needs a long time effort to recover gradually. The incorrect report is one of maladies causing BBC’s many crises. The anger and disappointment of the public will surely turn into the paper money burnt on its funeral. It is the time BBC should have a deep examination. If the BBC doesn’t put an end to such a kind of report, its future is worrying! The chairman of the BBC Trust Chris Patten said, “Does the BBC need a thorough structural radical overhaul? Absolutely it does and that is what we will have to do.” I agree with Chairman Patten’s opinion and expect to see that BBC can again become the most respected media in the world through reformation.

We’ll wait and see how the BBC is going to resolve this problem.

英国媒体BBC已失去往日“公正”媒体的光环

http://bbs.wolfax.com/t-46474-1-1.html

                                                                                        ——写给BBC中国总编辑凯瑞的一封信

凯瑞女士：

         你好！我是BBC中文网的一名忠实读者，也是全能神教会的一名普通基督徒，当我看了你写的一篇文章《实地报道：“除魔”的中国全能神教》（8月14日），以及你亲自采访的一个短片《山东招远人命案和全能神教》（8月15日）之后，我感到非常遗憾和失望，心里有一种难以言表的痛楚和悲愤。

         在我的心里，英国媒体BBC是一个全球最悠久、最受尊敬的媒体，近百年来一直秉承了真实、准确、公平、公正和独立的价值观。从BBC对震惊中外的中国“六四学潮”的报道，对诺贝尔和平奖得主刘晓波的报道中，我看到BBC记者可以不顾自己的生命危险，冲破中共的层层封锁，深入新闻现场采访，获取第一手新闻资料，做出客观、公正、独立、符合事实真相的报道，备受亿万人的尊重，我感到BBC是正义和人权尊严的代言人，这样的媒体值得人尊重。我曾从BBC的“编辑价值观”中看到“信任是BBC的基础：我们是独立的，公正的和诚实的。”“我们寻求所发生的事情的真相，并致力于我们所有输出的信息达到适当的精度。”这让我看到了作为全球最受尊重媒体的风范。但此次凯瑞女士对山东招远案和全能神教会的报道却一反常态，让人感到非常的不解。

        此次对全能神教会的报道中，你没有像以往一样独立进行调查，而是直接引用了中共喉舌媒体CCTV的报道,首先肯定了“山东招远杀人案”凶手六人是全能神教会的人，却没有采访过全能神教会，没有向全能神教会证实张立东等人的身份。单凭中共的报道就肯定张立东等人是全能神教会的人，这有失媒体客观、公正的态度。违背了BBC“我们是独立的，公正的”编辑价值观。明白人都知道“山东招远杀人案”是中共为了维护其独裁统治，唯恐自己的独裁政权受到威胁，故意设罪陷害全能神教会，为全面镇压地下教会尤其是全能神教会找的借口。这与当年以反革命暴乱为罪名，镇压“六四学潮”的爱国学生如出一辙。这样一个早已被普通中国百姓拆穿的诡计，居然能使有着悠久历史的英国媒体BBC失去敏锐的观察力，致使你的报道建立在了中共谎言欺骗的假新闻的基础上，堂而皇之地与共产党站在了同一立场上。试想如果你本着BBC“独立的”的价值观，你会亲自去调查漏洞百出、已被公众揭穿的“山东招远杀人案”；如果你本着BBC“公正的”价值观，你就不会偏听偏信，你可以直接通过全能神教会的网站，了解全能神教会的情况，了解他们的教义，了解他们受逼迫的事实，相信你会很容易得出正确的结论：中共栽赃陷害、残酷迫害全能神教会，企图将全能神教会的基督徒一网打尽，而真正的全能神教会的基督徒不会做任何犯法的事，相反他们都是诚实善良的人；如果你去采访任何一名全能神教会的基督徒，他们都可以负责任地告诉你：张立东等人绝不是全能神教会的基督徒；如果你凭着客观、公正的态度，你一定会得出一个与这个报道截然不同的结论。但是，很可惜！你抛弃了BBC的价值观，毫无疑惑地与中共保持了高度的一致，成为中共逼迫全能神教会的帮凶，成为了这个邪恶政党的站脚助威者。

        再接下来,你采访了一个自称王建南的男子，该男子声称：他的姐姐和母亲自20年前起开始信奉“全能神教”。报道称，去年10月1日，王建南的姐姐将他们的父亲打死。同山东招远的凶杀一样，王建南的姐姐认为父亲是个“魔鬼”，必须除掉。杀死父亲后她到警察那里自首，现在关在监狱中。按照BBC一贯的作风一定会对此事做深度报道，一探究竟，但是BBC就此打住了，肯定了王某的说法。试想自全能神在中国作工以来，已有20多年的时间，跟随全能神的人有数百万，如果全能神教会的人以“除魔”为己任的话，这数百万人在20多年间不知会以“除魔”为名杀掉多少人，为什么之前一直没有这方面的报道呢？如果真是这样的话，为什么没有引起民间的恐慌，中国官方20多年没有这方面的报道呢？难道中共在包庇袒护全能神教会吗？这件事就连我这样一个普通人都能看出破绽来，难道凯瑞女士这样一个见多识广的人就看不出来吗？没想到以“诚实”为价值观的BBC竟然也如此愚弄自己的忠实观众。

        现在整个世界都在揭露共产党，公认共产党比纳粹还邪恶，你们难道不知道吗？欧洲各国都反对共产党，弃绝共产党，你们BBC作为主流媒体应该比我们更清楚，你们为什么相信中共的报导，不相信地下教会受迫害的事实呢？为什么要站在中共一边来逼迫地下教会呢？如果纳粹现在还存在，你们是否也会站在他们一边呢？现在我对你们BBC的价值观表示怀疑，因为你们的行为已颠覆了世界公认的普世价值观；我对你们奉行的媒体宗旨也产生怀疑，因为我看到你们现在是在“挂羊头卖狗肉”，你们BBC“公正”媒体的声誉与你们的所作所为已经完全名不符实。

         BBC啊BBC，你究竟是怎么了？！到底是什么驱使你沦落到与中共喉舌媒体一样让人难以信任的地步？难道真的像传说中一样，BBC真的会为了英国能从中国得到经济上的好处，而出卖媒体的尊严吗？以致于要在8月16日中国总理李克强访英之前，送一个礼物给他，讨好一下中共政府。亦或是BBC的经济状况已堪忧到了足以丢掉尊严的地步？BBC真的会为五斗米而折腰吗？我不禁仰天长叹：英国媒体BBC已失去往日“公正”媒体的光环，失去了读者和观众的心，BBC的前途令人堪忧啊！中国有一句名言“水能载舟亦能覆舟”，BBC好自尊重吧！
