As journalists have come under attack for accepting and forwarding Chinese propaganda about the coronavirus they unleashed from Wuhan, the National Association of Black Journalists was forced on Tuesday to cancel a panel discussion with CNN host Van Jones and former CNN analyst Roland Martin on the "rise of misinformation" on the virus when it became controversial due to its financial backer -- Huawei, a telecom giant connected to the Chinese communist government that's been indicted for racketerring and conspiracy to steal trade secrets.
In a statement, the NABJ explained/complained: "It had come under attack because controversial technology giant Huawei was planning to sponsor the webinar though it had no editorial control. NABJ always retains editorial control over all such content along with final say over moderators and panelists. Huawei knew all of this in advance."
Brad Slager at Redstate reported the Huawei press release sounded like the usual leftist boilerplate:

That headline is one of the funniest things I have read in a long time. “Van Jones Plays Dumb” is awesome. “Corona-Racism Panel” is dense with humor. “Chinese Sponsor” is just icing on the cake. HONK!! HONK!! The amazing thing is that it got cancelled.
Wait! What??
CNN’s Van Jones Plays Dumb as Corona-Racism Panel Is Canceled Due to Chinese Sponsor:
See my tagline for confirmation of how CHICOMPRCNN control CNN.
Had Van Jones ever called out China for their racism?
Van Jones ‘’plays’’ dumb? The guy IS dumb, he doesn’t have to play at it.
The DNC: bought and paid for by the ChiComs.
Going back to the Clinton Administration.
At least.
The most brilliant propaganda ever created were the words vast right wing conspiracy.
If he’s pretending, then it’s damned convincing and with remarkable consistency. No, he’s not playing at all. Meanwhile, “Corona-Racism Panel” ... what the hell was that thing going to be, and why were the Chicoms going to sponsor such a gathering?
He’s not playing at anything.
Community organizing is a lie. All it is, is just a means for people who can't cut it in the real world to get attention and to get paid in a government or media position, all the while screwing over the very people that you're claiming to help.
“Though it has no control”
Since when has the CCP ever let anti corruption rules stop them from manipulating people.
We’ve reached peak clown world.
Let’s hope so. Clown World keeps out-clowning itself.
Watch yourself there; I have been a card carrying member of the VRWC since the 80’s.
Card # 203.

I’m betting the National Association of Black Journalists has been in bed with the Chinese for a long time. It’s a ‘democrat’ thing....
