Is anyone familiar with this news source? It came up as an ad on YouTube. If anyone is familiar with it, please share a review. Thanks.

The Epoch Times is a multi-language newspaper[2] headquartered in New York City. The company was founded in 2000 by John Tang and a group of Chinese Americans associated with the Falun Gong spiritual movement.[3] The newspaper covers general interest topics with a focus on news about China and human rights issues there. It draws from a network of sources inside China, as well as Chinese expatriates living in the West.[4][5][6][7] The Epoch Times is widely distributed in overseas Chinese communities, and has been publishing in Chinese since May 2000.[8] It is either sold or distributed free-of-charge in 35 countries, including various intranational regional editions. It has editions in English, Chinese and nine other languages in print,[9] as well as 21 different languages on the internet.[10] Weekly print editions are also available. A typical issue includes sections for world and national news, op-eds, sports, entertainment, business, arts and culture, travel, health and automobiles.[11] The Epoch Times websites are blocked in mainland China,[8] but people can access the newspaper using VPNs that function in mainland China.

It's fine, lots of their stories have been posted on this website. Some of their stories I believe are just using the big news agencies like AP and Reuters.

Good stories about China.

Conservative values. I think their cred has really grown lately.

I read them regularly.  So far, they have been accurate and not over the top.
