Mike Chinoy 

Although the outlines of U.S. President Richard Nixon’s historic trip to China in 1972 are familiar, the behind-the-scenes story of how it was covered by the media is less well known. The U.S.-China Institute at the University of Southern California has produced a new documentary, Assignment: China – The Week that Changed the World, which contains new footage of the Nixon visit, interviews with Chinese officials, and insights from journalistic luminaries who accompanied the president. These include Dan Rather and Bernard Kalb of CBS, Ted Koppel of ABC, and many others. The film is reported and narrated by U.S.-China Institute Senior Fellow Mike Chinoy, formerly CNN’s Senior Asia Correspondent and Beijing Bureau Chief.
