Having driven the BBC's TheJohnSudworth out of China, Beijing now brands the Foreign Correspondents Club of China an “illegal organization,' broadening its attack on journalists

He knows he lies, so ran away.

BBC journalist TheJohnSudworth leaves China after being 'criticized', they def don't make journalists like they used to:

You should follow suit Just sayin'

????🤡🤡🤡🤡bbc

Another hypocrite

The loser was sued in china

Lying journalist escaped over fear of lawsuit.

shocking that BBC does not take critism. or they ran because farmers in xinjiang are planning to sue them over falsified news

Good riddance Better Bullshit Corporation

If John Sudworth thinks his report is objective, he should stay and respond bravely instead of fleeing to Taiwan.

After lying about Xinjiang and then being sued he's running away, lol like a rat.

The BBC has some neck, considering its shocking coverage of brexit and Northern Ireland.

RobLondon FREETIBET!

BBC fake news, rubbish, UK should be ashamed of this nasty and low level propaganda corporation.

He was caught lying and making fake news about Xinjiang and Xinjiang people try to sue him. Then he ran away.🤣🤣🤣

BBC is so bad British people don't trust them to be factual or tell the truth.

No wonder majority ppl in West, have such 'Negative Opinions on China' due to misleading headlines from CNN and BBC. The Journalist from BBC have been 'Selective' in reporting about China Xinjiang and are being Sue by these so called 'Forced Labour'!

BBC putting out fake news about mass rapes in Xinjiang based on the lies of one Tursunay Ziyawudun who's claims the BBC itself said cannot be verified. The BBC is now the British government hate propaganda outfit against China. It have lost all credibility

The BBC reports on mass rape in Xinjiang is absolute disinformation.

BBC fake news twisted the facts based on a 2017 news video from China. The BBC is now a Nazi outfit. Watch 'Assignment Asia Episode 75: Transforming lives and building bridges in Xinjiang' on YouTube

Just to give a brief account of the Chinese explanation, this man was sued by the people for fabricating a large number of lies when reporting the news in Xinjiang, and then fled China without going through the corresponding departure formalities.

The report on this (Today R4) was chilling. Wake up before it is too late.

I like the BBC but some times try to be balanced too much negative reporting on China and Russia how many Muslims are suffering around the world by bombs killing them and their families please give peace a chance

Coverage? Since when did BBC have any real coverage about Chinese people? Lies can be made while sitting in their office.

Taiwan is a much nicer country in which to be based. Great people, wonderful food, and a lively democracy still with growing pains. Definitely not China.

He failed to comply with the departure formalities of resident foreign reporters. If he thinks his report is fair and objective, he should respond to the lawsuit. Was he anxious to leave because he was worried about being sued by the people of Xinjiang for spreading rumors?

Because Uighurs are suing him for false reports

BBC journalists are always getting thrown out of somewhere.

Fact check: Businesses are suing him after he made up fake news about Xinjiang and hurt local businesses. Then he ran away.🤡🤡🤡

Well done!!!!!

Uighur theme is used by the repressive Chinese regime to line up western policies and every single one falls for that.

That's alright, he can fly to Israel and criticize that government of their treatment of Palestinian citizens. Or he could call out Saudi on their lethal bombing and blockadevof Yemen. With British weapons.

He hasn't left China. He has just moved to the bit of China where there is a legitimate democratically elected government that doesn't practice genocide and oppression on its own people.
