Prediction: in democratic countries this will be laughed off as 'soft power with CPC characteristics'. In China, this will be presented by the Party as colonialist attitudes and mistreatment of Chinese representatives.

Amazing how she’s defining democracy as being allowed to verbally and physically assault people

The video does show him "assaulting" her first and finger pointing in an aggressive manner why was he not restained? Can we have the whole story? Was she really arrested for self-defence? Both need media training I think to be fair.

This is very disturbing I spent 22 years in the private security industry and it is clear the Chinese reporter was justified in a small hand gesture to push him away and security controlled it until the weak man pursued to stir her up more.

Chinese are rude.
They use violence, and said that is Freedom of speech. Pathetic! Unreasonable, what a shame.

Who are these two guys who push and hold her? Are they bodyguards? She’s apparently incensed first by the shove and then by the man holding her arms from behind and reacted angrily. U r misleading by calling her assaulting the man. At least a fuller footage is needed.
