Confusion in the News


For John, BLUFChina is trying, through its market power, to shut down dissenting speech.  Nothing to see here; just move along.




From Democracy Now and News Reader Amy Goodman, 17 December 2019.

Quoting Ms Amy Goodman, from this morning's edition of Democracy Now talking about [British] Arsenal Footballer Mesut Özil:

Turkish, German and Muslim
Which one of these is out of place?

Yes, the first two are nations and the third is a religion.  It is fair to note that the printed article got it right, "Özil, who is Turkish-German and Muslim".

Kudos to Mr Özil for speaking out for the Uyghurs, and shame on China for trying to silence him.
