Seeing the success of The Epoch Times as America’s fastest-growing newspaper, @NBCNews has published a hit-piece that is riddled with inaccuracies, blatant errors, and misrepresentations.

(Thread 👇) theepochtimes.com/nbc-news-repea…
@NBCNews NBC News mischaracterizes our subscription campaigns for our print newspaper. We provided @NBCNews with a statement back in June to clarify this, but they chose to ignore it—against well established journalistic practices. theepochtimes.com/our-response-t…
While The Epoch Times has been at the forefront of covering the actions taken by officials in the Obama admin targeting the Trump campaign during the 2016 election, @NBCNews is refusing to look at verifiable evidence and simply dismisses this reporting as a “conspiracy theory.”
@NBCNews This comes from an outlet that misled the American public for over 2 years with false claims of #Collusion between President Trump and #Russia to win the 2016 election.

Further, in an attempt to discredit The Epoch Times, NBC News resorts to repeating propaganda produced by…
…China’s ruling #Communist regime. This comes as @NBCNews’s parent company @NBCUniversal continues to work with a consortium of #Chinese state-owned companies on a multi-billion dollar project in #Beijing. sec.gov/Archives/edgar…
@NBCNews @NBCUniversal It is sad to see a once respectable news organization engaging in such behavior.

The reality is that @NBCNews is inadvertently lending legitimacy to #China’s ruling regime at a time when it is cracking down on its own citizens in #HongKong.
@NBCNews @NBCUniversal Their report also adds fuel to the #Communist Party’s ongoing horrific 20-year-long persecution of tens of millions of #Chinese citizens for their practice of #FalunGong—an ancient Chinese meditation practice based on the principles of truthfulness, compassion, and forbearance.
Just 2 months ago, in June, an independent people’s tribunal in the UK headed by Sir Geoffrey Nice QC unanimously concluded that #Chinese authorities have been killing #FalunGong practitioners for their organs “on a significant scale.”
In 2016, the U.S. House of Representatives unanimously condemned the #Communist regime’s forced organ harvesting from #FalunGong practitioners in #China.
The @EpochTimes has been transparent that our founders, who fled #Communist #China themselves, were practitioners of the spiritual discipline.

This information is available in our own 'about us' video.
The @EpochTimes is a proudly independent media based on the principles of Truth & Tradition and is dedicated to upholding the highest standards of journalism. Over the years, we have sustained ongoing attacks. This includes ten of our staff members who were arrested in #China…
… and given extensive prison terms for their commitment to independent media.

The reality is that The @EpochTimes is growing so quickly exactly because we believe in the principle of truth, something many other media have abandoned.

Note: The Epoch Times has previously addressed questions by @NBCNews in a statement issued on June 20, 2019.

🚨 CCP Targets Shen Yun, NYT Coverage Raises Questions

“Two years ago, we learned the CCP planned to escalate its war on us in America. Now, we’re facing legal weaponization, media smears, and threats to bomb, shoot, and rape our performers.”
— Shen Yun VP Ying Chen

🧵A ThreadImage
Sabotage Campaign. Shen Yun Performing Arts is facing mounting challenges. Recent incidents include bomb threats, sabotage such as tire-slashing, and a wave of disinformation aimed at disrupting its global performances. Evidence points to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) as the driving force behind these efforts. Meanwhile, the New York Times’ reporting on the group has drawn scrutiny for its alignment with Beijing’s narrative—here’s what’s happening to the U.S.-based arts group.Image
Global Tours. Shen Yun tours the world to top theaters to showcase China’s true cultural heritage through classical Chinese dance and music—traditions the CCP has tried to erase for decades. Its popularity has made it a target for attack on U.S. soil and around the world.

THREAD 🧵
Corruption is an “endemic feature” of China under communist rule due to the opaque political system in the party-state and the lack of checks and balances, according to a recent U.S. intelligence report. Image
The report, released on March 20 by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), states that bribery increases “an official’s legal earnings by four to six times.”

It also reported that Chinese Communist Party (CCP) leader Xi Jinping and his family had amassed more than $1 billion in wealth as of 2012.

Since Xi assumed power in 2012, information on corruption among CCP officials has been more challenging to obtain, the report said, adding that Xi’s family is known to have held at least millions in financial investments as of last year.

Link to report: dni.gov/files/ODNI/doc…Image
The Intelligence Authorization Act of 2023 required the ODNI to produce an unclassified report for the general public on the wealth and corruption of senior CCP leaders. Marco Rubio, currently U.S. secretary of state, inserted that requirement into the bill when he was vice chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee.

THREAD 🧵
British chat forums are shutting themselves down rather than face regulatory burdens recently applied to internet policing laws.

On March 17, the United Kingdom’s Online Safety Act, a law that regulates internet spaces, officially kicked into force.

The law means that online platforms must immediately start putting in place measures to protect people in the UK from criminal activity with far-reaching implications for the internet.

However, for some forums—from cyclists, hobbyists, and hamster owners, to divorced father support and more—the regulatory pressure is proving too much, and its myriad of rules are causing chat forums that have been operating for decades, in some cases, to call it a day.

Conservative Peer Lord Daniel Moylan told The Epoch Times by email that “common sense suggests the sites least likely to survive will be hobby sites, community sites, and the like.”Image
‘Small But Risky Services’

The Act—which was celebrated as the world-first online safety law—was designed to ensure that tech companies take more responsibility for the safety of their users.

For example, social media platforms, including user-to-user service providers, have the duty to proactively police harmful illegal content such as revenge and extreme pornography, sex trafficking, harassment, coercive or controlling behavior, and cyberstalking.

But what the government calls “small but risky services” which are often forums, have to submit illegal harms risk assessments to the Online Safety Act’s regulator, Ofcom, by March 31.

Ofcom first published its illegal harm codes of practice and guidance in December 2024 and had given providers three months to carry out the assignment.Riverside House is seen along the waterfront on Bankside in London on July 27, 2010.

It was given powers under the law and warned that those who fail to do so may face enforcement action.

“We have strong enforcement powers at our disposal, including being able to issue fines of up to 10 percent of turnover or £18 million ($23 million)—whichever is greater—or to apply to a court to block a site in the UK in the most serious cases,” said Ofcom.

Some of the rules for owners of these sites—which are often operated by individuals —include keeping written records of their risk assessments, detailing levels of risk, and assessing the “nature and severity of potential harm to individuals.”

While terrorism and child sexual exploitation may be more straightforward to assess and mitigate, offenses such as coercive and controlling behavior and hate offenses are more challenging to manage with forums that have thousands of users.Image

THREAD 🧵 Does gaming change the brain?

Gamers total 71 percent of the U.S. population and, on average, spend at least one month per year gaming. How does this affect emotions, cognition, and senses?

Research from over 90 medical reports highlights the impact on 15+ parts of the brain, as shown in this infographic:Image
From the Atari 2600 to the PS5, from Zelda to Fortnight, from mobile app games to gaming PCs, billions of players worldwide engage in gaming.

First, here's a quick breakdown of game design.

Game design incorporates three major strategies to keep players hooked: Image

The color, touch, and sound effects that are designed to sync with the brain’s inherent set of rules give players a rewarding sense of control over in-game changes, tricking the brain into perceiving the game world as both real and charming. Image
