WASHINGTON – The official Chinese news agency Xinhua today blames WND for over-hyping the safety issues about food and consumer goods exported from the Asian giant – specifically citing a story last May that sparked a wildfire of coverage by other media.
"For example, in May, the conservative news organ WorldNetDaily.com asked, 'Is China Trying to Poison Americans and Their Pets?'" the Xinhua story states in trying to make the case for racism in the U.S. media.
It was the only example of negative news coverage mentioned.
On the other hand, the official Chinese news agency praised the Washington Post for setting the record straight.
"China has been portrayed as a nation blind to hygiene and blissfully unconcerned about recent reports of food contamination," said a Washington Post commentary that formed the basis of China's attack on WND. "That's troubling, because it reinforces the notion that befouled food is the consequence of a foul culture."

""China has been portrayed as a nation blind to hygiene and blissfully unconcerned about recent reports of food contamination," said a Washington Post commentary that formed the basis of China's attack on WND. "That's troubling, because it reinforces the notion." Then I invite the leftist traitors at the Washington Post to eat communist China's "food" products. Enjoy!

China is a nation blind to hygiene and more concerned about food production profits than food contamination, and they're representative of the entire Asian continent.

I’m sure the ChiComs weren’t happy at WND at focusing the spotlight on Global Crossing and those containers of automatic weapons entering a COSCO port in CA!
