While the broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, and NBC) were stoking fear of any coronavirus vaccine produced under Trump’s presidency, they blacked out the nationwide outrage at ABC-owner Disney for giving a “special thanks” to the operators of China’s Uighur concentration camps in the credits of their new movie Mulan. It was a missed opportunity for their competitors at CBS and NBC.
The Libertarian magazine Reason put it best in describing the disturbing situation with Disney’s praise for the murderous Chinese regime. “The new Mulan movie is facing a barrage of criticism—and promises to boycott—for filming near Chinese concentration camps and then thanking the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) for the privilege,” wrote Elizabeth Nolan Brown.
Disney’s outrageous actions even made its way on to Fox News Channel’s Special Report. “In the credits of Disney's Mulan, the movie’s creature shot scenes in Xinjiang. And even thanked government agencies there, including one the Commerce Department sanctioned in October, the Turpan Municipality Public Security Bureau,” reported State Department correspondent Rich Edson.
