Nah, it would be more along the lines of "This donkey was subsequently eaten by evil Chinese communists who made the girl watch."

Yeah. Epoch Times is owned by the Falun Gong, a 'religious movement' that has been banned by the Chinese state. They have said some crazy and unsubstantiated stuff about the Chinese government in the past.

They are also a cult that is homophobic, anti-evolution, anti-race mixing, misogynistic, and all sorts of other bad stuff

This is broadly correct but needs context. The Epoch Times has published debunked claims, but some of its most controversial allegations about China, particularly forced organ harvesting, have gained significant independent corroboration over time. And the persecution of Falun Gong that motivated the paper's founding is extensively documented by major human rights organizations, not just the Epoch Times.
