| 0:00.0 | This is CBS, I'm the World, I'm John Bachelorette with Gordon Chang at Gordon G. Chang, my |
| 0:10.1 | colleague and co-host and friend. We point to a headline in the Guardian newspaper, |
| 0:15.0 | most recently, alarming. Satellite data sheds light on China's detention facilities in |
| 0:22.0 | Tibet. Gordon, recovering the Tibet story, we've been watching since 2008 and before, |
| 0:29.6 | the persecution of Tibetans by the Beijing government, Huzhen Tao and now Xi Jinping. |

| 1:50.7 | using satellite imagery of the Tibetan plateau. The concern here is what are they seeing in the |
| 1:59.1 | Tibetan Autonomous Region, describing this as an information black hole. What is alarming about |
| 2:05.1 | these photographs to you, Tencent? Good evening to you. |

| 2:21.0 | First of all, it's striking just the method that the Rand group has had to employ to study the |
