Chinese not so good (actually, ang moh not so good also).
Why is it not? It seems quite self-explanatory.
I use Google translate.
It says 一己之欲, 添烦添乱 is \"one's own desire, add trouble and add chaos\".
Yah... pretty self-explanatory. -

As the media in Taiwan comes in blue (close to extinction) and green flavour, when it comes to \"news\" about China on YouTube, first thing to check for is the ABOUT section:

《關鍵時刻》由東森電視事業股份有限公司製作,並於「東森新聞台」播送。
Must pay attention to the words in red. 東森 is a green company led by pro-DPP executives. Therefore, any \"news\" about China, whatever it is, is going to be negative and 99% wrong or exaggerated. Take it with a pinch of salt. -
If you are interested in one man’s unbiased opinion on the “crisis”, here is one by Jerry - a British-Australian living in China:

Actually 东森 is light green. At times, their guest speakers and hosts will trash DPP like hell. 关键时刻 has been criticizing Tsai and Chen a lot during the pandemic, so I won't say they are that green. 刘宝杰 the host will sometimes host \"pro-China\" documentaries (e.g. Chinese culture, treasure, history, etc.), so he will marvel at the greatness of Chinese culture too. Remember, the Taiwanese do not love the CCP, but they all love their Chinese roots and sympathise with the protestors! Many Taiwanese and HK netizens claimed they tear after watching the censored videos.
Basically, 三民自 (as the blues love to call them) are traditionally the hardcare green media, but there's actually a spectrum of greenness in existence. 三立 is actually ok to me, as they always feature Singapore news in a positive manner. They love to talk about Singapore...东森 also has some positive news about Singapore. You must know the green media in Taiwan are not anti-Singapore, because the ruling govt is not on sour terms with us.
民视 自由 are very very dark green. But nonetheless, I love watching the green programs (周玉蔻) because the BLUE (TVBS) and RED (中天) media won't show you things that CCTV censors. It's important to see what the Chinese state censors are blocking from these naive expats living in Mainland China also, so don't be too quick to dismiss green media and condemn them as misleading media, alongside VOA, DW, BBC, etc. Misleading from the CCP's pov, but not misleading from SG's pov. If you've lived in China before, you'd know you cannot access certain newswires. Only selected people have VPN to leap over the Great Wall to find out what's happening in other provinces and cities. Not surprising these Aussies must speak well of their host country, cos the police will pay you a visit at home after they track you down via your IP address. So, please also take the expat YT videos with a pinch of salt...
壹、镜 are also considered green.
And there're some WHITE media too like 公视、台视、亚洲.
Once upon a time, 华视 was quite neutral but it's been run by the greenies today, so you see 三国演义 type of programs which invite dissidents and exiles from 6.4 Tiananmen, as well as ex-expats and former citizens from Mainland talking about the CCP. Despite that, they do invite guests who'd lived in SG before and I recall one of them spoke positively of Singapore! Yes! on green media!
The problem with TVBS is that they only invite the KMT folks, so it becomes 同温层 talking to themselves. Even some moderate greenies they invite are from the same religious group as 赵少康。 It is interesting to note that TVBS, though a KMT mouthpiece, is not really pro-Singapore. They are neutral because the liberal democrat boss 赵 doesn't seem to fancy Singapore. But under his larger 中广 group, you will see pro-SG hosts like 唐、风馨。 陈文茜 also praises SG all the time, though she was once from DPP.
The RED media will have some problem with reliability because they love to 拗 facts and truths blatantly. They are tasked to speak well of mainland, and sometimes they do go overboard. They are all in denial! I always vomit blood when I listen to the RED media guests telling lies on air. But then of course, I am comforted that the RED guest speakers will also sing praises of Singapore, e.g. 赖、介 and a few KMT ex- & incumbent politicians...After all, their big boss 蔡 was (or is) a PR of SG and owns the entire Eden condo in Orchard!

My most watched 政论节目 would be 新闻面对面 hosted by 谢震武. Analysis/critics wise, I enjoy listening to 明居正 (comments on China related news/issues on 年代向钱看) and 苗博雅.

I like https://www.tvbs.com.tw/ for the quick, easy-to-read summary of latest news

Anyone watch Phoenix InfoNews Channel? I almost every day watch "The Chief Editor’s Time" at 1000pm.

华视 is a state owned media company and the mouthpiece of the government.
Once upon a time, 华视 was quite neutral but it's been run by the greenies today...
Therefore, it will become blue when KMT is in power, green when DPP is in power.
It is never, and will never be, neutral due to its ownership structure.
