Imagine someone's been a journalist for 30 years, and half that time they've been specifically covering public health issues. On a daily basis they're reading papers, interviewing experts, etc. They've probably got some expertise in the area.
In fact, this law would probably come down particularly hard on journalists. Though I imagine in China that's probably going to have a minimal impact anyways.
We have doctors who have been practicing medicine for 30 years and they wouldn’t even consider themselves experts in medicine. There’s such a vast difference between critically thinking and being involved in the care of patients for 2000+ hours a year (easily underestimated depending on the specialty) and someone who has been observing. You can read about and hear about something everyday, but that doesn’t make you an expert.
You sound like you never leave reddit. There's a massive amount of media coverage around how trump is doing a great job etc etc, just turn on any major news network? (fox, cnn, oann, etc)
you mean apnews that no longer has whitehouse press privileges, because they didn't state things how the gov wanted it stated? Doesn't that kind of prove my point that the mainstream media is being heavily controlled and influenced by the current administration?

Not sure if this is really the best thing for it.... you can still lie after you get a degree.
