Quality reporting over at Bloomberg :(

Although https://36kr.com/ seems to be a magazine style website - so maybe it is not totally wrong, just the explanation of what they do is limited to the wrong bit.

TechCrunch owns it so maybe that's what confused editor at Bloomberg. But then one can argue that TechCrunch is owned by the Verizon Media group.

That's even worse, because Techchrunch hasn't owned them since 2015. They are fully independent as Crunchbase, Inc. since then.
