The UK’s state-run BBC news outlet has rejected accusations by China’s Foreign Ministry that the agency reported “fake news” when covering the Covid-19 crisis in China, saying it stands by its “accurate and fair reporting.”
Amid escalating tensions between the two nations, the Chinese Foreign Ministry said Thursday that it had registered “stern representations” with the British Broadcasting Corporation while demanding an apology for unfair and biased reporting on the handling of the coronavirus pandemic in China.
