The Challenges of Foreign Reporting in China: An In-Depth Discussion with Jane Perlez
In this episode of 'Barbarians at the Gate,' hosts Jeremiah Jenne and David welcome Jane Perlez, former Beijing bureau chief for the New York Times, to discuss the evolving challenges of reporting from China. Jane shares her experiences from her tenure in Beijing (2012-2019), where she served as bureau chief for the New York Times. She describes the gradual erosion of press freedom, the increasing difficulties foreign journalists face under Xi's leadership, including the expulsion of journalists in 2018, and the ongoing obstacles that news assistants working for foreign media encounter in China. The conversation explores how reporters have had to adopt creative strategies to conduct investigative journalism, given the current lack of direct reporting from within the country. Additionally, Jane discusses her latest podcast project, 'Face Off: The US vs. China,' which examines the dramatic deterioration of U.S.-China relations in the 21st century.FACE-OFF: The US vs. CHINA (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/face-off-the-u-s-vs-china/id1734890307)The Great Wager (https://www.wbur.org/hereandnow/2022/02/07/the-great-wager-podcast)On the Trail of Xi Jinping (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/on-the-trail-of-xi)China Books Review, Graham Peck: Two Kinds of Time reviewed by Jeremiah
