Description: Screenshot of a Kotaku article by Eric Jou, published on 5 May 2014, titled “No, China’s Depressed Youth Do Not Keep Cabbages As Pets”. The article challenges reports by outlets including the UK’s Metro and The Huffington Post that lonely or depressed Chinese youths were walking cabbages on leashes as if they were pets, explaining instead that the scene came from a long-running art project by Chinese artist Han Bing, who had been walking cabbages in public for years as a social and cultural statement. The piece is useful as evidence of how an unusual China story was corrected or reframed by another outlet, and how a visually striking but easily misunderstood stunt could be turned into a misleading international media narrative when context was stripped away.
