They're not clowns. They're employees of the US propaganda arm. They are paid for this kind of "analysis" since the organizations behind them are basically funded by the establishment. They are the American equivalent of the 50 cents party. Just more sophisticated and externally targeted.
What the US does incredibly well is this kind of "bottom up" influence campaign. This is accomplished primarily through incentives. If you're a political science graduate and you want a career in a foreign policy institution or think tank, this is what you do to get attention. To the public it looks like just an "independent" analyst giving their take. In actuality it's how they advance their career. All the while they avoid drawing attention to the US government's involvement because it's not a "top down" directive.
China, by contrast, is a lot more "top down" and that's also why it's a lot easier to get accused of being government propaganda. This "bottom up" approach is really one of Western propaganda's greatest achievements.
To all fellow Fujianese and overseas Chinese whose ancestors are of Fujian origin - War declared! War declared!
The West has a centralized propaganda system (CIA, Pentagon "reviewing" Hollywood films, tv shows, etc, CIA's National Endowment for Democracy (NED), Voice of America, etc) , but it also uses every other tactic available including what you described.
The issue with China is not that it is centralized but it has inexperienced operators. For example, their media is so easy to identify, which increases resistance to persuasion.
**CHINA** Global Television Network (CGTN)
**CHINA** Matters
New **CHINA** TV
**CHINA** Daily
**CHINA** News TV
**CHINA** Central Television (CCTV)
**CHINA** Human Rights
The West creates the illusion of independent/neutral voices by hiding behind a variety of different names that all repeat the same western lies.

China's low soft power is not a hard power issue at this point. It's mostly because they lack experience. Just look at the above. What does that have to do with hard power? Nothing. And, this is one of the most BASIC skills they should have mastered decades ago.

You're looking at this list and you can't tell that every American channel is has a political stance to support/spread and a base to appeal to? LOLOL Blind or pretending to be blind?
Every non-American country that aligns their media is due to America's hard power. They want to be on America's side because that is the side they think will win.
The same things can be said by a far weaker country and they will sound stupid and unbelievable, but with American hard power and the platform it affords America, it can spread the same lies but with effect.
There is no such thing as soft power; this is the day and night difference that hard power dominance makes. When a tycoon refuses to do valet and goes to street parking, they call him disciplined and principled; when a poor person does the same, they call him cheap and embarrassing. It's all about hard power.
LOL you got your own question wrong.
Lying from the bottom up to rot the entire population is not a basic skill; it's called sticking your head in the sand and causing yourself to fail the "know your enemy" facet. One of America's greatest disadvantages against China is that it understands China far far less than China understands the US and America is content to continue to actively spread disinformation, misunderstanding and ignorance to its population because it's too scary for them to admit the scale of the threat they're looking at.

The conclusion is downright Dickensian…

LOL we all know the answer to this.
The same reason BBC didn't report on the China-Saudi Arabia summits.
And it ain't because the lights went out in the BBC newsroom.
The elder's ashes were scattered in the sea by Yangzhou (578).
BBC in coping mode anyone? The UK is going to be the first of the US Allies on the chopping block and I simply cannot bring myself to feel any sympathy for these POMEs. In fact any Chinese person that cannot feel any sense of karmic justice for all the things that these di$kheads have done to China, simply isn’t Chinese at all and deserves to suffer like Nathan Law who I believe is going to be on ice once the British winter finally hits that son of bit$h real good (as anyone can see here, I absolutely hate this POS and hopes he suffers during his stay in the UK).
Honestly enough, does anyone know what has happened to Anges Chow as of late since I know Joshua wong in behind bars and Nathan law is basically touring Europe to try to get more support for HK independence to literally no one giving a sh!t due to the entire EU block that is about to endure a nasty winter due to his higher ups being a bunch of fags in stating a conflict that has cut Europe from its energy supplies due to EU leaders being ret@rds, like this clown.
