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

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!
