The Rosa Luxemburg Foundation recently published a study entitled "China Coverage in the German Media in the Context of the COVID Crisis". In it, the authors accuse the texts from seven newspapers and magazines of having "a Western values agenda and a Eurocentric perspective". In the reporting, "clichés and stereotypes" were taken up. Political scientist and China expert, Andreas Fulda from the University of Nottingham thinks the study's conclusions are wrong.
