Strongly require the apologies from Herald Sun and Daily Telegraph

The issue

We, Chinese community, hereby strongly require  sincere apologies publicly from both Herald Sun and Daily Telegraph.

The subtitle of the headline on Herald Sun as of 29th January, “Chinese virus pandamonium”  inappropriately labeled the Coronavirus by race. The Daily Telegraph made the part of headline “China kids stay home” bolder which misled the public and cause potential high risk of discrimination against the Aussie kids with Chinese background at school. This label is downright offensive and unacceptable race discrimination. And both made the inestimable negative impact on Chinese community. 

The Herald Sun and Daily Telegraph should take serious responsibility of media ethics to report unbiasly and objectively!
