Just FYI #TheEpochTimes is a far-right international multi-language newspaper and media company affiliated with the Falun Gong new religious movement.The newspaper, based in New York City, is part of the Epoch Media Group. The #FarRight encompasses a range of ideologies that are marked by ultraconservatism, authoritarianism, ultranationalism, and nativism (nativism is a largely American notion that supports anti-immigration and immigration-restriction measures.)

Shen Yun Needed Publicity. The Epoch Times Wrote 17,000 Articles.

A publisher that rose to prominence promoting right-wing conspiracy theories has also served as sword and shield for the dance group and the religious movement behind it.

Shen Yun Performing Arts, the classical Chinese dance group famous for its ubiquitous marketing, began its latest world tour last week.

I don't care if it's at #Stanford, if you invite #TheEpochTimes to something, you are no longer serious in any critical way.

"Moderating the panel will be Jan Jekielek, a senior editor at The Epoch Times, a #FalunGong-affiliated Chinese outfit that has aligned itself with Donald Trump and the MAGA movement. The publication...faced a money-laundering #scandal in June and is known for promoting anti-vaccine narratives.

Important Context · Stanford University To Welcome Vaccine Skepticism, Epoch Times At Upcoming Health Policy ConferenceBy Walker Bragman
Continued thread

#PeterStrzok, fyi, was a part of #RobertMueller's investigation team, until he got caught texting an FBI lawyer about how incompetently evil #DonaldTrump was (shocker). #TheEpochTimes was doing a #hitpiece on Strzok and it I think it took up almost the entire issue.

I was confused as heck. I knew it was a #politicalrag, I just didn't get why a rag that lamented about "oppressive Chinese dictators" was carrying water for TRUMP, the most #dictatorial #president of the US (so FAR).

Not my proudest moment, but I used to (occasionally) read #theEpochTimes.

The local food court would get a stack of them (back when they were free) and sometimes I would grab a copy to read during lunch.

I didn't know about #FalunGong and what I remember reading was mostly articles about how EVIL the #CCP were.

It wasn't until the middle of the #MuellerProbe that I first realized something was off about TET. The last issue I read had a big front page article about... #PeterStrzok.
