I really enjoyed that report from Laos that Andy did in fluent Lao and those ones from Brazil where he dazzled us with his Portuguese.

By saying “foreign”, he’s telling all those reporters from places like the Arab world or Latin America who worked hard to learn the global language of English so they could work internationally, “Sorry, but start again with this language useful in only one country.”

Sorry, but why, exactly, would it be a bad look for a US-based reporter to ask questions in Spanish? Or Mandarin, for that matter

It isn’t and Andy is not aligned with Beijing on this one. The FM has translators and puts out info in multiple languages. They don’t care. It’s just that Chinese ability is Andy’s thing and he’s very precious about it.

Don't forget his reports from the USA in perfect, lispless English.
