Today, I received in the mail a sample copy of “The Epoch Time”. I took a glance at it and quickly realized it was a piece of propaganda.
In fact, The Epoch Times is a newspaper extension of the Falun Gong, a new Chinese religious movement.
A same group also operates the New Tang Dynasty Television (NTD). Published in Chinese since May 2000, the paper is either sold or distributed free-of-charge in 35 countries, including various international regional editions.
The Epoch Times websites are blocked in mainland China. That media is primarily known for promoting far-right politicians across Europe and the United States, and Donald Trump in particular, as the second-largest funder of pro-Trump Facebook advertising after Trump campaign itself.
The group's news sites and YouTube channels have also spread conspiracy theories such as QAnon and anti-vaccination propaganda. So, simply use that newspaper for your cat litter!
