「双语」例行记者会/RegularPressConference（2021-3-31）(24)

The BBC has produced and broadcast a large number of fake news with strong ideological bias, seriously deviating from the objective, balanced and fair position of media reports. In particular, the BBC has spread large amount of false information about Xinjiang, Hong Kong and COVID-19, to which the Chinese people strongly oppose. The Chinese side has made solemn representations to BBC on many occasions, hoping that it will take China"s position seriously, abandon anti-China ideological bias and double standards, stop anti-China slanders, smears and attacks, and report China in an objective, fair and accurate manner.
我这两天看到张维为老师在《这就是中国》节目里有一个非常精彩的对话访谈，名字叫“西方媒体的信誉危机”。他在这期节目里提到了BBC。他举了些例子。如在2019年香港修例风波期间，BBC关于香港的报道充斥着双重标准和假新闻。2019年10月，BBC报道过所谓“39名中国人偷渡英国并死在英国货车里”的事件，结果最后查出来死者都是越南人，可是BBC对中国没有一句道歉。BBC在国际议题上的造假行为甚至到了内部人都看不下去的地步。2019年2月，BBC叙利亚新闻报道制片人达拉提在推特上发了一条推文，公布了被掩盖已久的秘密，那就是：所谓关于叙利亚杜马市的那段叙政府化学武器袭击的视频是自导自演的假新闻。可是他揭露了这个事实以后，他的推特账号就被封掉了。
I have recently watched a splendid talk show named "the credibility crisis of western media" featuring Mr. Zhang Weiwei in the program China Now. As Mr. Zhang Weiwei mentioned in the show, BBC"s coverage of Hong Kong during the turbulence over the proposed amendment bill in 2019 was riddled with double standards and fake news. In October 2019, the BBC reported that 39 Chinese nationals were smuggled into the UK and died in a British lorry. It turned out that all the dead were Vietnamese. But the BBC has never made any apology whatsoever. The BBC was producing fake news on international issues to such an extent that even those working for the BBC couldn"t stand it. In February 2019, BBC Syria producer Riam Dalati dropped a bombshell on the Syrian crisis by tweeting that the hospital scene in video footage taken after a suspected chemical attack in April 2018 was "fake". But after he revealed the truth, his Twitter account was banned.
