What happens when tragedy becomes a media narrative? In this latest edition of Pointcast, Liu Xin speaks with Hong Kong-based author and journalist Nury Vittachi about media coverage of the devastating landslides near Gyirong Port in southwest Xizang, China, along the China-Nepal border. As rescue efforts continued following the disaster, some Western media reports raised questions about the scale of the damage and accused China of suppressing information. Liu Xin and Nury Vittachi take a closer look at these claims, examining what may have been overlooked in the reporting and how tragedy can become entangled with broader political narratives about China. What did the media reports miss? What do the facts on the ground tell us? Watch the full conversation and share your thoughts in the comments. #Xizang #GyirongPort #ChinaNepalBorder #Landslide #NaturalDisaster #WesternMedia #CGTN #ThePoint #LiuXin Guest Nury Vittachi Editor of Hong Kong's "Friday" news project 📺 Subscribe to our Yo
