Why does the allegiance to country matter here? Am I missing something? Would we ask to get news about some silly domestic trend from a non pro-Washington source?

Being pro-Beijing doesn't just mean an allegiance to China, it means that the media supports the CCP which is an oppressive government that constantly violate human rights.
