'Amazing': CNN anchor John Berman draws attention to Chinese censorship of CNN coverage of Peng Shuai — as it's happening [video]

We’ve called out CNN plenty of times for effectively bending over for the Chinese government.

So when Chinese censors cut off CNN’s feed during a report about vanished tennis star Peng Shuai, we were pleasantly surprised to see CNN anchor John Berman take the opportunity to spotlight what was going on:

This definitely isn’t the first time that Chinese censors have swiftly cut off CNN’s feed.

It really is striking.

I’m actually stunned @CNN talked about this

Better late than never. Now if only they’d do this all the time.

Imagine what the response would be if @cnn did this much coverage of the genocide of an ethnic minority.
