Facebook is taking money from

Facebook is taking money from China to promote Communist propaganda which denies atrocities against the Uyghur Muslims, an investigation has revealed.

The Silicon Valley behemoth pocketed Beijing’s cash to promote articles which downplayed what Washington has called a genocide in Xinjiang, according to <a style="font-weight: bold;" class="class" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" target="_blank" website Press Gazette.  

China Daily and CGTN – the state-backed TV channel recently banned in the UK – have paid Mark Zuckerberg‘s firm just a few hundred dollars a time to promote posts to millions of users.

It comes as Facebook, worth £560 billion, was today accused of going to war with democracy as it banned Australians from sharing and accessing news on its website after Sydney threatened to force it to pay media companies for using their content.

As Facebook withholds money from Australian media with one hand, so they take it from Chinese media firms with the other and beam Communist falsities to millions of people around the world.

They charged just $400 for https://winstarlink.com/jasa-social-media-management/ China Daily, Beijing’s propaganda newspaper and website, to promote an article in October which accused Western countries of ‘lies’ and ‘disinformation.’

Facebook’s advertising analytics website shows the advert was mainly targeted at young men in Nepal which borders Xinjiang.

It shows clips of Western commentators discussing the plight of the Uyghurs and says: ‘Politicians, think tanks and the media work together to align narratives that drive public discussion and pervade the public consciousness often with malevolent intent’.

In another China Daily-sponsored video, it calls reports on the internment camps in Xinjiang ‘completely false’ and ‘straight from the manual of Western media tricks.’

An investigation by <a style="font-weight: bold;" class="class" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" target="_blank" website Press Gazette uncovered how another China Daily post said: ‘The tale of an oppressed Xinjiang is a myth Western media refuse to give up.’

CGTN, which was taken off air in Britain earlier this month after the watchdog found it in breach of licensing rules on impartiality, paid Facebook to advertise a post which promoted ‘vocational training centres’ in Xinjiang.

Dance teacher featured on 'Dance Moms' accused of sex abuse

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) – A dance instructor who appeared on Lifetime’s “Dance Moms” is accused of sexually abusing girls at an Orlando dance studio.

Kevin Cosculluela, 25, pleaded not guilty following his arrest in December on charges of sexual activity with a 16- or 17-year-old child, solicitation of a minor, lewd or lascivious conduct and illegal use of a communication device, the Orlando Sentinel reported.

He has also been fired from his job at Peaches Dance and Music Orlando, the newspaper reported.

The charges followed an investigation by Winter Garden police, Orange County Sheriff’s deputies and the Department of Children and Families, which uncovered accusations of manipulation and sexual battery by two teenage girls who took lessons with Cosculluela.

One student told investigators that she idolized Cosculluela and had considered him famous and important because of his appearances on the reality television show about dance kids, their moms and their studio.

The investigation found that Cosculluela often took students to lunch, watched movies with them and celebrated their birthdays, a police report said.

He also connected with students over social media, the report added.

The report said Cosculluela asked some of the girls for nude photos and twerking videos. One girl told investigators he could be scary at times if you didn’t do what he asked. She explained that he would yell, curse and ignore her for days, and threaten to halt his lessons with her.

He would also send messages that he loved her, the girl told investigators.

According to the arrest report, Cosculluela brought one girl to his home in early December and winstarlink.com forced her to perform a sex act on him.

He then drove her back to the studio and told her to “erase this from your memory and don’t tell anyone,” the report said.

The teen confided in another dancer at the studio, who said she’d had similar encounters with the instructor, the report said. The second teen told investigators she went to Cosculluela’s apartment on about 10 different occasions, adding that she trusted him and he took advantage of that, the report said.

“They put him on a pedestal, so they were willing to take whatever he did so they could keep him in their lives,” detective Bethany Rising wrote in Cosculluela´s arrest warrant.

Investigators spoke to an employee at the dance studio who is also a friend of Cosculluela.

He told them he didn’t see any inappropriate behavior between the instructor and his students, the report said. He thought Cosculluela was a “very nurturing teacher,” the report said.

Court records showed that the studio notified parents in late December that Cosculluela had been fired for inappropriate behavior, the Sentinel reported.

Cosculluela’s next hearing is scheduled for May 5.

His attorney declined comment to the newspaper on Wednesday.
