- Concerns over political bias
I’ve long felt the female reporter was biased, but now her political leanings are completely blatant. Reading other reviews confirms I'm not the only one who feels this way. Is ICRT signaling its own political stance by continuing to work with her? As a long-time listener since my student years, this is very disappointing.😔

I’m very disappointed with ICRT Taiwan News. I used to listen to their broadcasts when I was little, but now it has become a political media outlet! It’s extremely biased and clearly leans toward the DPP. Their news reports are completely lacking in neutrality. The headline might seem like it’s about the KMT’s party chair election analysis.., but the guest speakers—who knows who they even are—just spend the whole time brainwashing the audience about how terrible the KMT and TPP are.
In reality, ... more
