The problem is that your claim is unfalsifiable. Any evidence that I present, you'll claim is wrong, because it opposes your view. There are independent groups that went to China to investigate--you'll claim they're just CIA-funded. There are groups from inside China that have investigated this--you'll claim they're also CIA-funded. And the "evidence" that you present to back your claim is that they must be CIA-funded, see what it is they're supporting!
I'm not claiming that the media tells the truth. What I'm claiming is that your position is not based on evidence.
Unfortunately, while I can present sources to rebut you, your claim isn't falsifiable, since you'll just assert that any source that I present is "US counter-intelligence / the thinktank blob," because it rebuts your claim.
