After years of downplaying the likelihood of a lab leak and amplifying scientists with conflicts of interest, The New York Times published a piece Sunday claiming to have “found” evidence of a Chinese censorship campaign about COVID-19.

Reporters for the Times “investigated” the silencing of information about COVID-19 in China in the early days of the pandemic, as well as later attempts to flex control over international institutions like the World Health Organization (WHO) and prestigious scientific journals. But many of the narratives pushed by Chinese Communist Party (CCP) actors were parroted in mainstream papers like the Times itself for the first three years of the pandemic.
