What is it like being a journalist covering the U.S. and China while the two countries fight on almost very front? For American journalists in China, they face never-ending harassment and obstruction while reporting on the ground, and even worse, the risk of getting expelled by the Chinese government for covering stories that they did not like; For Chinese journalists in America, it's a constant battle against the stereotype of reporters from a "communist" country. The tensions peaked in 2020 when the two countries started a tit-for-tat "media war," expelling and restraining visas for journalists from the other country.

In the first episode of the "Caught in the Crossfire" series, we followed an American journalist who was once based in China but was expelled, possibly for his reporting on human rights issues; and his Chinese counterpart in the U.S., who almost lost his visa while working for Voice of America due to Trump-era policies. Both went through limbo and fear while being messengers caught in between the U.S. and China.
