The Crisis in U.S.-China Media Coverage

 01 Jun 2021   Overseas Press Club of America


Hear the stories of three correspondents effectively expelled from or pressured to leave China. In view of these departures and rising tensions between Washington and Beijing, how can the Western media continue to cover China? How effectively can it be covered from elsewhere? How does the Chinese government monitor correspondents? What are the Biden administration’s policies toward Chinese correspondents in the U.S.? How important is the International Olympic Committee’s commitment to press freedom during the Winter Olympics, to be held in Beijing in February 2022?

RSVPs are essential. Please register in advance to receive the link to join about an hour before the program.
