SYDNEY The sources and intentions of Australian journalist Sharri Markson s reports hyping up the Wuhan lab leak hypothesis have been questioned by experts and media professionals, according to a report published in The Guardian.
When Markson s initial report was published in 2020, ABC s Media Watch questioned its authenticity by citing experts who said there was no evidence that the novel coronavirus came from the lab, said the article published on July 13.
Though Markson s reports have fallen on fertile ground in pro-Trump and far-right circles in the United States, her sources and intentions were highly questioned.
Splashing across six pages of the Daily Telegraph, her follow-up story on the bombshell dossier purportedly gave weight to the lab leak theory. It incurred sustained criticism in other media when the dossier turned out to be merely a summary of publicly available information.
