    Your claim is that… China has incentive to reduce deployments of solar panels by criticizing the deployment of solar panels over agricultural land? We’re talking about the same China, right? World leader in solar panel production, being criticized by American and European leaders for overcapacity in solar panel production? I just want to make sure we’re on the same page here.

        Your claim is that a PRC news source wants people to deploy less solar panels.

          No, my claim is a PRC news source is not trustworthy.

          If you want to show me a source that discusses this issue from a media outlet that isn’t state-controlled, feel free to do so and I will read it.

          I do not give my time to state-controlled media.

            BBC? CBC? NPR? RFA? Al Jazeera?

            What, exactly, do you think the incentive is for a PRC news source to discourage solar panel adoption?

              Neither the BBC nor NPR are state-run media.

              State-funded is not the same. You’re being dishonest.

                Jeez my bad the government responsive for legislating the sale of my broadcast rights has no oversight into the operations of my media company. Silly me.

                  Being sarcastic about your dishonesty makes it no less dishonest.

                  But feel free to give me some examples of the U.S. government interfering with NPR’s programming.
