近來，“新唐人電視臺(tái)”策劃于2007年在華盛頓搞所謂“新年晚會(huì)”，并正大力宣傳、兜售“晚會(huì)”門票，蒙騙公眾前往觀看。
“新唐人電視臺(tái)”成立于2000年。它自稱為“服務(wù)于全球華人”的“獨(dú)立公眾媒體”，實(shí)則受“法輪功”一手操縱，是其邪教和反華宣傳的喉舌。該臺(tái)除播出少量新聞和電視劇作為點(diǎn)綴和包裝之外，集中力量赤裸裸地宣傳“法輪功”邪教理論，為李洪志歌功頌德，散布謠言和攻擊中國政府。
眾所周知，“法輪功”宣揚(yáng)反人類、反科學(xué)的歪理邪說，對(duì)信徒實(shí)施極端的精神控制，是徹頭徹尾的邪教。“法輪功”頭目李洪志宣稱人類已經(jīng)毀滅了81次，地球很快又要爆炸，只有他才能拯救人類；地球是宇宙最大的垃圾站，美國則是地球上最大的垃圾場；只要練“法輪功”，生病時(shí)不需就醫(yī)、吃藥就能痊愈。他甚至宣稱希特勒屠殺猶太人是天象變化的結(jié)果。李洪志還利用“法輪功”從事危害社會(huì)、侵犯人權(quán)、殘害生命的違法犯罪活動(dòng)。據(jù)不完全統(tǒng)計(jì)，在中國就有1000多名“法輪功”信徒因病拒絕就醫(yī)而死；數(shù)百名信徒自殺或自殘；30多人被“法輪功”信徒殺害。事實(shí)充分證明，“法輪功”與美國的“人民圣殿教”、“大衛(wèi)教”和“摩門教末世圣徒原教旨教會(huì)”一樣，是嚴(yán)重危害社會(huì)、侵犯人權(quán)的邪教，是現(xiàn)代化文明社會(huì)的毒瘤。
為保護(hù)廣大人民的人權(quán)，中國政府依法取締了“法輪功”，得到了全社會(huì)的擁護(hù)。但“法輪功”在美國找到了生存和發(fā)展的土壤。除繼續(xù)以各種手段蒙騙公眾、宣揚(yáng)邪教理論外，在美“法輪功”已淪為反華的政治組織。它們捏造所謂受到“迫害”的事實(shí)、攻擊和誣蔑中國政府，誣告中國政府機(jī)構(gòu)和官員，騷擾中國駐美使領(lǐng)館和訪美團(tuán)組，與境外其它反華勢力相勾結(jié)，鼓吹推翻中國政府，破壞中國社會(huì)穩(wěn)定，企圖給中美關(guān)系正常發(fā)展制造麻煩。
近年來，“新唐人電視臺(tái)”在中國春節(jié)期間打著“弘揚(yáng)中華文化”、“展示東方神韻”的幌子搞所謂“新年晚會(huì)”，拉攏不明真相的演員和演出團(tuán)體參加演出，蒙騙公眾前往觀看?！靶履晖頃?huì)”拼湊的節(jié)目暗含邪教理論，格調(diào)低俗，毫無藝術(shù)水準(zhǔn)可言?！靶履晖頃?huì)”完全是“法輪功”擴(kuò)大影響、從事邪教和反華宣傳的政治工具，是對(duì)中華文化的玷污和歪曲，是對(duì)觀眾的欺騙。

Essence of NTDTV and its 'Chinese New Year Gala'
The New Tang Dynasty Television (NTDTV) in the United States is recently vigorously publicizing and selling tickets for the so-called "Chinese New Year Gala" that it plans to stage in Washington D.C. in order to inveigle the public into watching the show.
The Falun Gong organization preaches anti-humanity, anti-science and heretical fallacies and exercises extreme mental manipulation on followers. It is nothing but a cult. Li Hongzhi, the chief ring leader of Falun Gong, says that the mankind has been destroyed 81 times, that the earth is about to explode very soon, and that he is the only savior of man. He says that the earth is the dumping ground of the universe, with the United States being the largest of all, and that by practicing Falun Gong, one could cure any disease without the need to seek medical assistance or medication. He even claims that the Holocaust of Jewish people by Hitler was a result of the changes in celestial phenomena. While preaching Falun Gong cult doctrines, Li Hongzhi committed numerous crimes that endangered the society, violated human rights and destroyed lives. According to incomplete statistics, over 1,000 practitioners died because they followed Li's teachings and refused to seek medical treatment for their illnesses. Several hundred practitioners committed self-mutilation or suicide. Over 30 innocent people were killed by mentally deranged practitioners of Falun Gong. Just like the "People's Temple", "Branch of Davidians" and "Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints" in the United States, Falun Gong is a cult organization harmful to the society and violating human rights. It is a cancer of the modern, civilized society.
To protect the human rights of the general public in China, the Chinese Government outlawed Falun Gong. This was endorsed by the whole society. However, this cult has found breeding ground in the United States, where it is surviving and developing. In addition to continuing to cheat the public and preach cult doctrines through various means, the Falun Gong cult organization in the United States degenerated into an anti-China political organization. It fabricates stories of "persecution", attacks and slanders the Chinese Government, files false charges against the Chinese Government institutions and officials and harasses Chinese Embassy, Consulates and visiting delegations. Working hand in glove with other overseas anti-China forces, it clamors for overthrowing the Chinese Government, undermines social stability in China and attempts to create troubles for the normal development of China-U.S. relations.
NTDTV was set up in 2002. Claiming to be an "independent public media organization serving Chinese people all over the world", it is, in essence, a mouthpiece of Falun Gong used for cult and anti-China propaganda. Peppered with limited news and teleplays as a camouflage, NTDTV programs concentrate on undisguised preaching of Falun Gong cult doctrine to eulogize its founder Li Hongzhi, broadcast anti-China programs such as the so-called "nine commentaries on the Communist Party of China" and spread slanderous rumors against the Chinese Government.
In recent years, NTDTV staged the so-called "Galas" during the Chinese New Year festival in the name of showcasing the Chinese culture and the oriental charm in order to draw performing artists and groups who are unaware of the nature of the "Gala" and inveigle public audience into watching the show. However, the "Galas" were patchworks of programs with low artistic value and full of implied preaching of cult doctrine and attacks on the Chinese Government. They were, in fact, a sheer political tool used by Falun Gong organization to expand its influence and spread cult and anti-China propaganda. They were an insult and distortion of the Chinese culture and a deception to the audience.
