In this week’s #HeadlineBuster, is TikTok’s time up in the U.S.? We will look at how the media are covering Trump’s threat to ban TikTok in the U.S. on the grounds of national security risks. The Trump administration has been playing up concerns that TikTok’s Beijing-based parent company ByteDance is sharing user data with the Chinese government, so are media investigating how convincing those claims are? And after Trump claimed the U.S. Treasury should collect a commission if the sale goes through, are media asking the right questions about a president who moonlights as a broker? And how does the story play into the greater saga of deteriorating China-U.S. relations?
