Even if the mainstream won't touch this, we the people watching will remember this.
The internet exists now, the globe is watching.
OUR MAINSTREAM MEDIA IS SHOWING THIS IN THE UK YET HARDLY A MENTION ON THE YELLOW VESTS IN FRANCE
@Don't Tread On Me Eh, you just need to go to a media bias check site.
@ Russia today, far left??? You're confused Lol.
So called "mainstream media" covers it almost every night! I bet you are a Trump supporting right winger!

A video with balanced interviews to enable viewers to form our own opinion. Good job Bloomberg!
the craziest part is how many cameras you see everywhere vs how little footage actually seems to comes out
Rumford Chimpenstein because you are not Chinese, you just watch TH-cam , TH-cam is west media
China has they're own media TH-cam etc
Because some of the guys who wear a vest of Press is actually not a "real press". they are the allies of the riots. some of them will cover the riots when the police want to arrest the riots. some of them will stop the patroit who support HK police from leaving the front and which finally cause them beaten by the riots. I ve seen that in many videos.
Western only show the image they want.
@@WengMarco well. You try writing non latin with a latin keyboard, while only speaking latin languages! Its near impossible.

Umm...ever taken a course in media literacy. This is highly biased anti-hk reporting!!

Their opponent is a CPP that is so inbred it can hardly be bothered to pretend it cares about anyone but the rich hiding regime money overseas.
Are you joking????This is highly biased reporting. All footages shows police action but not how dis riot bash people in the street and police officer.
@@Lee-vb6ib You're sure about "all footages"?
The video is 47 minutes long, at least watch it all through the end.
There's a policeman being beaten up by protesters at 37:19
Nah, you don't need to go that far, 1:40 already shows few protesters throwing bricks and molotovs, do you even watch like a minute into the vid?
The video is littered with protesters destroying public property
I dislike CPP as much Dan Smith over there, but he's being even more biased than Bloomberg. This vid is the most neutral one I've seen so far.
Speaking of Western News Media, one can always tell whether a nation is willing to bend over for the West or not. If they are, and they're complete tools, then ANYTHING they do would be covered up. If they aren't, then we get stories, through Western news media, about how "bad" and "mean" they are.

I love Hong Kong, I can’t go back there this year be cuz of corona and this, like what the f*ck is this? This was where my ancestors were. And now the place they called home, is really a living hell. People in Hong Kong just wanna defend their home and they want rights. I miss Hong Kong, the food, the shops, the views, much more. I’m so heartbroken at what I’m seeing in this video. I wanted to see my family members this year and ofc not. Bc of freaking Chinese communism. Resistant to change. F*ck you communism.

By far the only objective and unbiased reports I’ve seen on mainstream media
Bloomberg finance is the news I can trust, all they care about is numbers and numbers don't lie, i cant even trust regular bloomberg as much
RT America is another one worthy of watching
DW from Germany got a good interview with Joey Siu as well
Only the scenes of the policemen standing against protesters while the scenes of rioters destroying public facilities and beating up individual opposers are completely cut.
Now u call that Objective and Unbiased?
David Lai watch the Conflict Zone interview, pretty good journalist
Best reporting of the situation in Hong Kong that I have seen.
ps. I reside in Hong Kong so I can say that this is a very accurate representation of all perspectives.
Thank you.
I agree. It gives the perspectives and challenges from all sides and allow the viewer to make his own judgement. Well done! It is better than the biased portrayal from my state media.
@Allan no no, I don't speak cantonese. In Hong Kong you can have a good life with English. Since Hong Kong was a British colony until 1997, most people know English.
Don't be misled. This video is still biased. Bloomberg, being an American media, is obviously blaming China for the unrest in China. Why didn't Bloomberg investigate the ongoing interference by US and UK in aggravating the riot in HK?
China Uncensored has better reporting, and it's oddly funnier.

Since you are such a follower for freedom, I just want to know if there is really anything as democracy in the international arena or any country, especially for Korea in the face of America and the common Korean people in the face of the syndicate in your country? How does it feel to live under the dominance of other countries? to live a life with the mercy of the consortiums.

Us Americans need to take note. This will be a thing in the near future for us Americans
This will happen in Not US but China. Because It's human nature to have a desire for freedom when they get economic wealth.
Now China is growing rapidly economically, but it still has to follow the Communist Party's decision to do everything, so how much can the people endure such a heavy life?
Maybe In 30 years, China will be Hong Kong. Your children will be doing what young people in Hong Kong are doing.

Mr.Jefferson had not seen Hong Kong's riots!
This is how people use unjustice to fight for justice, You are supporting them ruin the future.
th-cam.com/video/X9qez3D9N_I/w-d-xo.html
Thomas Jefferson became president. many many many many poor people died
S W ToDi true but he raped n enslaved kids
@@SWToDi-qc8hb Jefferson had seen a war of independence. The American Colonies were part of the UK. The Americans were British citizens, now they are not anymore. However, they rebelled because of higher tax without lack of democratic representation. And Britain already had an elected parliament at that time.
Now, the Hongkong people shall put their faith and trust in a government in China, which has never been legitimated by general and free elections at all, to guarantee their political rights and freedoms, from which billions of Chinese in mainland China are deprived from by the same regime ? That is what I would call a leap of faith.
Revolutions happen. History happens. And what is considered an unchangeable reality today may not be the case in the future. Even in China. Look into Chinese history. Dynasties changed all the time, every hundered to two hundered years or so. Why the Communist party should have been the last one ? The party leaders know that. That is why they need so much surveillance and commit so much resources to block and control the media. They are basically afraid of their own population. They have much to loose.
So when British colonists could become Americans and Indians Parkistanis, Roman citizens of Roman Brittania, English; Germans Austrians
, why should Chinese Hongkongers not become just Hongkongers over time ?

A very ancient man once said,
"Democracy is the rule of mob". Misinformation are propaganda are more dangerous than tyranny.
Hatsoff to that man, Aristotle
Oh yes, trust a totalitarian government like the CCP to serve the people's will. That will go down well...
@@lordmashie but they did serve the people's will pretty darn good so far, didnt they?
@@eddiez5061 They'll only do something beneficial to the population if it also benefits themselves - like opening up to the world and letting people make money again (as long as they still have control one way or another) after Mao Zedong seized the means of production (and killed more Chinese people than any foreign power combined in the process). But if what the people ask for involves the potential for the CCP to lose even a bit of their authoritarian grip on power, it's a completely different story - and to stop people from demanding such things in the first place, they 'teach' their population from a very young age to be loyal to the communist party and push the toxic mentality which suggests that the communist party _is_ China and if you denounce them (the CCP) then you're denouncing all of China - which simply isn't true.
Sidetracking a bit here but it also doesn't help that since they 'represent' China by ruling it, the media all over the world says "China did this, China did that" when something bad involving the communist party happens so even the less-political of the general Chinese population feel attacked as well even though they didn't get any say at all over what happened and then they get all defensive as a result and refuse to condemn their government's actions.
Yeah someone needs to let them know that a straight up democracy will only be favorable to them if their party constitutes the majority. The protesters seem to be very fond of America (waving our flag and singing our national anthem while they demonstrate), but if they want a government like ours I’m not sure exactly how they would institute a constitutional republic in Hong Kong.
@@KaileyB616 Actually most of them I think just fly the US flag to piss off the central government and other pro-CCP people, much like how they fly the old British HK flag and say that they'd rather be under their rules instead of that of the CCP. Some of course do call for the US to 'liberate' HK but when has 'liberating' places ever worked out for the US in recent times, lol.
I am waiting for the sequel "A Beautiful Sight: USA on Edge".
lol came back to have a good laugh at those comments supporting freedom.

th-cam.com/video/b1fldOc0hRU/w-d-xo.html
China shows restrain because they respect and honour the Sino British Joint Declaration, hence they didn't send troops to deal with those entitled protestors.
Here is the sad part.
What the hk protestors doesn't even realize is that they're being used by other countries to start tiananmen square 2.0. They're being mislead by fear and false promises.
So I come up with an analyze. Please tell me what you think mate. It has help me understand tiananmen square a lot better. Why? Because hk protest and tiananmen square protest are very similar.
I also understand why China censored it because that incident was all about sowing discords.
It's very hard to get people to see the truth, but I'll try it anyway.
Here is the thing that many don't know about.
Pretty much every protestors leaves the Tiananmen square peacefully that night, until they're on the steet, that's where a group of rioter start killing soldiers. I'll cover that in a bit.
I'll try summarize it by others who have done their homeworks.
GX Mei: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1989_Tiananmen_Square_protests#Deaths_in_Tiananmen_Square_itself
'could not find enough evidence to suggest that a massacre took place on the Square itself'
'there was no bloodshed inside Tiananmen Square itself'
'did not observe any mass firing of weapons into the crowds of the square itself'
'most of the troops which entered the square were armed only with anti-riot gear'
also
www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/wikileaks/8555142/Wikileaks-no-bloodshed-inside-Tiananmen-Square-cables-claim.html
‘Wikileaks: cables from the United States embassy in Beijing have shown there was no bloodshed inside Tiananmen Square’
‘Protesters who were still in the square when the army reached it were allowed to leave after negotiations with martial law troops’
Here is the elusive culprit that slip through our minds for decades.
Amidat: The government let them sit there for 6 weeks. The FACT is that rioters began beating and killing soldiers... That's when the shooting started.
I've verified about the soldier killing and its true and it can be found at the most unexpected place. (this video condemn China action, but it also contain the video evidence we need about the soldier killing.)
th-cam.com/video/g3xMaEdLLk8/w-d-xo.html
Just skip to 2:18 to see the dead soldier on the above video and not on this page. The rioters would kill the journalist too if he didn't keep shouting he's an American and showed his passport. Someone threw a rock at his head regardless and laughed at him. That mentally is strong on every social media discussion, if you disagree with a hk sympathizer, they'll cuss at you by calling you a 50c, a communist, CCP, and all sort of nasty names. Try verify it by playing devil advocate.
Anyway, this might explain why there were bloody corpses outside on the streets and not inside the Tiananmen square.
The attacking of soldiers, vandalizing buildings and burning things up remind me of the Hk protestors, which can found on this link.
th-cam.com/video/bH12UjYllbA/w-d-xo.html
And here is man gotten beaten into coma by violent protesters in Hong Kong.
th-cam.com/video/Q2Wgce4ipy8/w-d-xo.html
They're so freaking similar. The only difference is that there is no hk police death yet.
And here is a video where the Tiananmen square protestors went out safety.
th-cam.com/video/azP_gTPEL_Q/w-d-xo.html
Here are the eyes witnesses accounts of the incident.
th-cam.com/video/GwKx02ClIA8/w-d-xo.html
What are your thoughts my friends?
Unfortunately even this bbg one is biased. It showed most dramatic action scenes by HK police, but what about the riots? What about the people beating civilians on streets and at the airport, hurting eyes of a policeman, etc.... we hk residents know what really happened. We can understand the peaceful protest, but any violent actions on the streets should be forbidden and these criminals should be put into prison no matter they are students or what!!! Everyone is fair in front of the law!
This is so far the most objective report I've seen on Hong Kong issue
孙颖 : So do you think it’s time for a political solution to this impasse?
@@KnightInDaLight you are brainwashed. The basic principle of news should cover the points of two sides, but It's sad that this is the first news agency to report two sides.
Unfortunately it still fails to explain why things got worse and worse over time, especially the past 2 months, though. According to numerous surveys conducted from time to time by universities and other credible organisations, roughly 65-70% of the Hong Kongers don't support the government and they simply loathe the police force, 20% or less are pro government and police, the rest stand in the middle. The bill probably contributes only 30% to the mess we see today. it was just the starter, I have yet seen one journalist from the west got the rest right yet.
Actually bloomberg is biased in most of its report..
HKP did a great job in 2019. They tried their very best to protect the normal people.

@@yangtianyi766 northern Ireland is also free but some of them would rather be a part of the republic of Ireland however the majority of them want to remain part of the UK.

@@ryouisono1806 none actually. If you want to know why Hongkongers are so surpressed, I suggest watching videos about HK's cage homes and history.
For this incident, the Verge or SCMP would be a great starter, though there are many hate comments from pro-chinese people.
Unbias my a$$. Why doesn't it mention how many citizens the "peaceful demonstrators" have beaten up? Why doesn't it mention the 70 year old cleaning staff killed by bricks by those "democracy fighters"? Why doesn't it show the video where those "demonstrator" set fire on a guy who disagreed and debated with them?
God, show us all mercy. Will Hong Kong ever be the same or be rebuild back to restoration? A brighter and newer Hong Kong on the nearer future.
Brenda Gordon It won’t and it does not deserve it. Hong Kong is done now.
I am really afraid that Hong Kong won't be the same anymore. Because if it became the same, I'm afraid the next group of rioters would be generated. I personally feel very heartbroken seeing what Hong Kong protesters have done to our country.

The most neutral documentary from Western media. This should be a role model for all media reports. Bloomberg, you've got my subscription.
@Rosida Andriyana - No, they are biased and slanted according to their owners' world view and ideology. Most are opinion-based now. It was called 'Yellow Journalism" 100 years ago and we evolved away from it for a while, in the 70s-80s. Now it has reverted back.
All media should be neutral according to professional standard and leave judgement to the viewers, but they're so biased/manipulated in real world, which create unnecessary hatred. I have to go through a variety of media to get the whole picture. Neutral report is precious in today's environment, so sad.

You made a lot of effort to give us a balanced view.
Thank you to everyone involved.
Thank you for reporting on this
Strange that it’s hard for people like Rita to see how these students and professionals could be organized so well. I wonder how? Jeez maybe because they’re smart, they’re educated, they’re passionate; they’re young kids who have grown up in a society far different from that of the mainland, they have the advantage of education, numbers, and the layout of the city itself. They’re little soldiers. Even if some of them know it’s hopeless they still fight. They have the highest integrity a human can really have. If one isn’t willing to fight for their own rights and freedom and for those around you then what is the point of life? They just want to be heard.
Excellent recap of the whole situation, hope to see more pieces like this
Thank you Stephen for a balanced report.

Ask Mr Lai to look further to the freedom that british colony gave to hongkong
What freedom??? Oh.......Corruption???
Withdraw the extradition bill is not the solution for answering criminal/killer who done his or her crime in Taiwan and flew back to Hong Kong without any prosecution. Can Hong Kong protesters be responsible for that?
Can pro-china extradition bill be respinsible for all the innocent people that will be pluck out of Hong Kong to be executed.
@@xijingpooh5879 what is being dealt with the murderer is justice, what you are saying here is just a contradiction, your govt will nt just extradite anyone unless the person is really guilty.
Hadn't heard about that except once before....the gruesome stories from the mainland about the legal system might still justify not allowing extradition, mightn't it??
@@xijingpooh5879 You probably haven't read the bill. The bill clearly stated that only several serious crimes such as murder, fraud, rape, etc are eligible to be extradited. And the process will be under severe scrutiny by Hong Kong court. Mind you most supreme court justices are British or dual citizens.

Welcome to HK style petro bombs and acid bombs.
They are not taking sides and they are not offering solutions either. Lol they are businessman, they want profits. Isn’t that cold fact of capitalism?
it is so so so much freedom here in HK, so that who has greater power who got more "freedom", for me it is natural when it is so "free", of cause unfair in some way, but human still animals.
Who doesn't want profits? only capitalism? Come on, be smarter ok?
Quantum Jump You work to make profit not creating riot. Why should businesses man spend money to intervene the chaos when they can easily invest overseas. You should ask the HongKongers being smarter.
It’s time for this tyrannical system to change. The MTR is owned by the people, and being used against the people!
i hope you make an special about what is going on in Chile now.
It looks the Chile riot used HK riot as a role model....How ironic

China shows restrain because they respect and honour the Sino British Joint Declaration, hence they didn't send troops to deal with those entitled protestors.
Here is the sad part.
What the hk protestors doesn't even realize is that they're being used by other countries to start tiananmen square 2.0. They're being mislead by fear and false promises.
So I come up with an analyze. Please tell me what you think mate. It has help me understand tiananmen square a lot better. Why? Because hk protest and tiananmen square protest are very similar.
I also understand why China censored it because that incident was all about sowing discords.
It's very hard to get people to see the truth, but I'll try it anyway.
Here is the thing that many don't know about.
Pretty much every protestors leaves the Tiananmen square peacefully that night, until they're on the steet, that's where a group of rioter start killing soldiers. I'll cover that in a bit.
I'll try summarize it by others who have done their homeworks.
GX Mei: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1989_Tiananmen_Square_protests#Deaths_in_Tiananmen_Square_itself
'could not find enough evidence to suggest that a massacre took place on the Square itself'
'there was no bloodshed inside Tiananmen Square itself'
'did not observe any mass firing of weapons into the crowds of the square itself'
'most of the troops which entered the square were armed only with anti-riot gear'
also
www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/wikileaks/8555142/Wikileaks-no-bloodshed-inside-Tiananmen-Square-cables-claim.html
‘Wikileaks: cables from the United States embassy in Beijing have shown there was no bloodshed inside Tiananmen Square’
‘Protesters who were still in the square when the army reached it were allowed to leave after negotiations with martial law troops’
Here is the elusive culprit that slip through our minds for decades.
Amidat: The government let them sit there for 6 weeks. The FACT is that rioters began beating and killing soldiers... That's when the shooting started.
I've verified about the soldier killing and its true and it can be found at the most unexpected place. (this video condemn China action, but it also contain the video evidence we need about the soldier killing.)
th-cam.com/video/g3xMaEdLLk8/w-d-xo.html
Just skip to 2:18 to see the dead soldier on the above video and not on this page. The rioters would kill the journalist too if he didn't keep shouting he's an American and showed his passport. Someone threw a rock at his head regardless and laughed at him. That mentally is strong on every social media discussion, if you disagree with a hk sympathizer, they'll cuss at you by calling you a 50c, a communist, CCP, and all sort of nasty names. Try verify it by playing devil advocate.
Anyway, this might explain why there were bloody corpses outside on the streets and not inside the Tiananmen square.
The attacking of soldiers, vandalizing buildings and burning things up remind me of the Hk protestors, which can found on this link.

This wasn't about the bill was it as that was removed.
It was at the very beginning, but people have found out the root problems
Such as having a puppet gov that isn't chosen by the hk people
Thus there are 5 demands
The withdrawal was too little and too late
@@Chan-me5wg i dont remember at any time the PM of hk where ever chosen by hk people?
It started about with that, but it was not withdrawn so it escalated! Apparently, you don't understand things when you hear them, like Trump!
Such an interviews fake news. The man said that they fought for democracy for 35 years. Was he fighting when Hong Kong was ruled by Britain, All the people interviewed were vested interests.
I remember the people celebrating, when the British left, how they wish the British never left.
They will be celebrating again real soon.

It's interesting how Lai describe this thing "the first battle of a new cold war". Hmmmm who are in this new cold war then? China and US? So is Lai basically say they are the proxy and front line for the US to start the first battle? When hk is by their constitution part of China. So basically if they want independence I think they need first change the consititution. Don't talk about democracy and freedom and beating around the bushes. Don't be a coward just say you want to change the constitution and a referumdum for people to vote whether to stay in China or not. And then I'll repsect you as fighters. But I do think these middle and upper class people with dual nationalities are questionable and probably should only get half a vote since they pledge loyalty to two countries.
Precisely. Interesting the interviewer VOX editors didn't dig deeper on this.
markuc but clearly these HK protesters are dumbass who think by provoking violence and play the sympathy card in the international community will get them what they want lol. I m really curious to know if there is a referumdum, how many will vote to stay in China. And if they vote to leave do they have legitimate ground to be legally independent as their constitution says they are part of China. In order to change the constitution, they need to throw over the current government system and to do so they would need to first defeat the police and the troops stationed in HK. Now I guess the only answer to independence is war. How will HK PEOPLE choose? I bet they are too coward to do this lol. Finance industry wont breed fighters.
markuc they would never
He meant between hong Kong and china you dunce
Martin Lee, love him
No one even speaks of justice for the murdered girl anymore.😢
The extradition Bill showed that HK people not only mistrusted Mainland Chinese courts but their own as well.
Beyond the standard provisions, there were clauses for judicial review twice in the process for any of the 37 specific crimes that fall into “extraditable” crimes. There also many exceptions made, for instance political dissent or any crime punishable for less than 7 years.
These rioters just don't care about the justice and the extradition bill, many of them are paid by CIA and some of them are just brainwashed and stupid enough to read only Apple daily ! More than half of the Hong Kong medias are telling fake news and anti government by non sense! Hong Kong is just a very good example of how the so called " freedom " and democracy can harm and destroy a normal life and the world! After the second war world, how many countries have been destroyed and how many people are killed in the name of freedom and democracy?
