Trump disputes that China is repressive toward journalists
Original: Q: China is one of the most repressive countries for journalists in the world-- TRUMP: Well, I don't know about that. I
When asked whether China is one of the most repressive countries in the world for journalists, Donald Trump pushed back, saying he did not know about that and adding that he thinks the United States is also repressive. The exchange has drawn wide attention, with critics calling the remark an unfair comparison between the two countries' press freedom records.
Why now: Trump's claim that the US is also repressive toward journalists is a provocative statement about press freedom, sparking debate.
