I always applaud to Asian kids when they appreciate their parents sincerely for being supportive of the families
What an inspiration for all the immigrants and those who pursue of the American dream. Thank you for sharing your story and CBS.
What a great story! Tip the hats to those hardworking immigrant parents!
Way to go Weijia. I grew up in Morgantown. My parents owned the only Chinese restaurant for a while. I was the only asian in my school until high school. You go Weijia!
Congratulations Weija! You Rock!
i am glad she kept her original name.
Great observation. Most Asian women, at least these days, pick up an American name.
Bonjour. I still think of your calm demeanor when dealing with the ex President at that outside event. I was so angry by how you were treated. Your professionalism is much appreciated. BTW, I wrote this comment as soon as I saw the subject. I am so glad that Vlad and the producer included that clip. Much respect.
A smart and a hardworking woman. Asians, especially women, do somehow develop a thick skin. I am not sure how. Also, must be nice to get such a wonderful tribute from your colleagues. I mean, did you see them at the end? They couldn't stop praising her. I wish my colleagues were that nice.
Proud of her achievements
Weijia Jiang~ you make us so proud! I had no idea of your backstory - thank you so much for sharing.
What a great story. I’ve always thought she was excellent!
She has always been one of my favorites...
Even more so, now.
Happy for her. 😊 Thank you for sharing.
Love, love, love Weijia Jiang. She was a local reporter on New York City’s WCBS morning news show which I watched daily and she always presented herself professionally - the consummate professional. So happy and proud of her and enjoyed this showcase of her. Nice to see a Different side of her.
Beautiful story!!
So inspiring, congratulations 🎊 👏🏾 💐
Stellar story… Weijia: noticed her during the tRUMP incidents. So glad
Vlad featured it here. Good thing Gail missing & could not TALK OVER or Diminish this amazing success story.
Thank you for sharing your amazing story. This is good.
She was always nice and cheerful when I seen her with my daughter and the other girls. I’m really glad she is also living her dream. And the other girls have grown to also be amazing women, and even mothers. God bless you and always search for the true truth. There is a difference.🙏
Congrats & Thank you for your bravery.
I have strong objections when a non white person is called Colored, hey, White is a color too.
White is the absence of color on the spectrum.
"In color theory, white is the color of all wavelengths together. When you see a white object, all color wavelengths are reflected off of that object. When every color reflects from the object, there's no color left. Therefore, white is the absence of color in the object, while our eyes see all the reflected colors."
@@ontheroad5555 thank you for your obviously above average intelligence comment, some people may even understand what you are talking about.
Back to our subject matter, African American are called black, other darker skin American people are called brown, Asian Americans are called yellow, White people in America are called white folks, so white IS a color after all, therefore white Americans are colored too.
@@peacepipe18 you have to understand Americanism to appreciate the racial history of America. Colored only refers to those who are not genetically white. It's a catch all term that puts different races under one umbrella. A white person has never been referred to as colored not matter how dark their skin turns if tanned. It's the genetics not the phenotype that matters. There are black people who actually were able to pass as white. I watched a show on Las Vegas recently about how black performers could not stay in the hotels there overnight. They had to leave the area. There was one lady who did not look black at all but surely was able to pass as white. And that is how she was able to perform and not thrown out of Las Vegas after midnight.
this is such a wonderful and heartwarming story. Love you guys at CBS News
A smart and a hardworking woman. Asians, especially women, do somehow develop a thick skin. I am not sure how. Also, must be nice to get such a wonderful tribute from your colleagues. I mean, did you see them at the end? They couldn't stop praising her. I wish my colleagues were that nice.
What an incredible woman with a great legacy she’s created
Great town, great people, great parents, & great journalist
great story i was touched
Thanks for sharing the great story
Great story, inspiring young woman, good work Mom and Dad!
I wish there are many more positivity American stories from CBS.
Thanks CBS Mornings for this wonderful story. I would like to see more like this one showing love, encourage, appreciation and friendship, etc.
She did not deserve the nastiness from our so called president
She absolutely most certainly did not, @BrianHornak. 😐👏🏽💯👏🏽😐
Wasn't she the one asking stupid questions and interrupting trump when he tries to answer
Remarkable story of where one comes from and where one can go!
Great story.
Weija was a local shining star .now..a national shining stars..way to go weija
It takes major guts to step into a space where nobody looks like you and the people who are in that space look like the same people who bullied and picked on you for many years of your life.
Great story, so touched, hard working will be paid off.
Love this!
I started to call her “ my girl “ ( as in M’man) the day she told Donald Trump off . So proud of her.
I will always remember the time when Donald Trump shut her down at a Rose Garden news conference 4 years ago. She tried to imply that Trump was picking on her because she is Asian. She's the one that asked the "nasty" question. I love how he abruptly ended the news conference. Must have angered a lot of other reporters that had legitimate questions.
What an amazing story. In contrast with the Orangutan with the tiny hands who wanted to put her in her place.
Is Weijia Jiang a good reporter ? We think a good reporter should learn how respect to the higher authority!
She’s amazing. I love the way she threw it right back to Trump!
So proud of her
Yay for Weijia.....you go girl and make us Chinese girls proud....hey, why not.... And geez louise...we and they all know how awesome and sexy we Chinese females are.... it's total living proof. I'm one, and so are you.....and there are so many past, present, and future. They all dream to look like us.....for sure
Quite the Liberal. Just another Reporter (not a Journalist) that will NEVER scrutinize a Democrat.
Maybe that's the conversation you should have with CHINA not here CHINA
A smart and a hardworking woman. Asians do somehow develop a thick skin. I am not sure how. Also, must be nice to get such a wonderful tribute from your colleagues. I mean, did you see them at the end? They couldn't stop praising her. I wish my colleagues were that nice.
Ask Joe Biden some tough questions! Don't protect him!
She won’t. They’re in the same swamp.
"People of color"
I hate that epiteth so much
By the content of my character, not the color of my skin.
Im an individual, a citizen. That should be enough
Thank you!
My name is Miguel.
I have 10 things to describe myself before I could even mention I'm Asian.
People of color? I'd need to smoke something lol love your comment
Thank the gods she wasn't relegated to a bass-ackwords outpost in the middle of Nowhere,AK, for daring to do her job and challenge Donald Trump
We crossed paths briefly when I was at Patch and she was at WJZ. Absolute professional and Baltimore is proud of her.
Now the criminal TRUMP is guilty WEIJIA is still smiling. Best Journalist.
❤❤❤ 👍👍👍
Don't like her politics and her bias, partisan news reporting, but it's a good immigrant story, although is fairly typical for Asian immigrants. I loved the quote her dad said about how as a child studying for the SAT that she's implicitly making money for her future.
Ditto on your comment. Inspiring story for the sake of the American dream but yeah..... she's on the left.
She's probably a closeted patriot.
dern im cryingggg
Be true to your calling, don't become an agent of the Democratic party!
Definitely on my first ballot for the stenography hall of fame.
Good for you Weijia
for dreamong big and making your dreams come true.
and
It's disgusting that people would ask her if she can see because she has small eyes and is of Asian heritage.
That would not be tolerated in today's time period 2024 or people would think of someone as being a total idiot racist for asking something so stupid to a person.
It is so ironic for her journey. She made her achievements through hardworking and family values. Now she promotes the Democrats' ideology that is absolutely opposite to her success.
Yes, sad. She wasn’t brought up with liberal views, that is the college and universities right there.
👍💐🙂
Her name really should be pronouned Way-zhah, not Wee-zhah
Very proud of you, Weijia!
Whoopi do
Weijia Jiang!
Who cares if people look like us? Get over it!
She will yield to the establishment sooner or later
Beautiful women and person
family guy reporter
2:48 Trumps rude to her
She was disrespectful and mean. Chinese Americans are not like this.
@@Circle0631 Only wokists hate China because woke is banned in China
Only in America! An immigrant cannot get to this level in China or Japan or Korea.
But they can in Canada, the UK, Australia, New Zealand, and many other countries.
@@Daniel-xg3ul Good point. I'll add many EU countries, Canada, and Australia/NZ.
@@streetcar6080What do you mean? There are no immigrants in China, Japan, or Korea. China is an ancient civilization while the United States is a country founded by immigrants
@@Yangpeiling-de-zhangfu Nonsense. There are people who to immigrate to China and there are plenty of immigrants in Japan and Korea. Yu Darvish's (Faridun Yu Darvishsefat ) father is good example.
You rock r❤🎉
Maybe she shouldnt mispronounce her own name, it's not wee, its wei. Im just saying ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
和妈妈长得一模一样嘢
Trump is so vile 😬
So westerner
what visa did her parents hold to enter US?
None of your freaking business!
@@jackday4529 so is it your business?
👍👍👍👍👍❤❤❤❤❤
Hi, May I share the most important news you will ever hear in your entire life? God the Father sent His holy Son Jesus Christ(Y'shua Ha' Mashiach) from heaven to earth, to be born of a virgin. He grew up and died on the cross for our sins. He was put into a tomb for 3 days, and then Abba Father raised Jesus to life and He appeared to people and went back to Heaven. We must all sincerely receive Jesus to be a true child of God. It says in John 1:12 "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name." Will you genuinely believe on Christ Jesus and truly receive Him today, before it is too late?

Great story! (Would Ms. Jiang ever change the pronunciation of her name to be closer to the Chinese? I think English speakers could manage it…)
Are you crazy? Why change ? Deal with it !
On behalf of the AAPI community. We don’t support her. Clout chasing and a sellout
I will be happy when mainstream media stops mispronouncing Weijia’s name, so that it doesn’t sound like some occult practice. It’s. WAY GEE AH. It’s ironic because pinyin was originally supposed to help pronounce Chinese easier..
I want my white tv
What’s wrong with you?
Trump will make sure she shuts her mouth when he wins the white house back.
I thought that the job of the President of the United States was to “protect and defend the Constitution of the United States”? That includes the 1st Amendment. If he wins, shouldn’t he be legally obligated to assure she opens her mouth all she wants? Are you a patriot? Are you supporting a candidate who you think should stifle the Constitution?
You where one of the biggest bullies to me and many others that I can remember weijia. I'm sorry you were bullied maybe that's why you became one as well..
😮
Diversity hire...
not for Asians.
@@frankwxu 🤣🤣🤣
her voice is not good, very harsh to the ear!
What is wrong with your ear?
🤣@@linjiang9288
That is the question you should ask china
We crossed paths briefly when I was at Patch and she was at WJZ. Absolute professional and Baltimore is proud of her.
She is the absolute worst!
I'm glad that she was blessed to be where she is now
the CCP planted her here
It's pronounced like"way-jia" not "wee-jia"
OK!!!!
You're right!
It's pronounce
WEI -JIA and not WE- JIA.
but people who are not Chinese don't know that and Weijia herself didn't teach people to properly pronounce her name and pronounce her name WE JIA herself.
OMG… you’re looking exactly like your mom!!!!❤❤❤
You GO girl ! ❤
You're one of the very best - and we ❤ you !! 👍
Too freakin sweet! I've always loved Weija,and could even spell her name before I watched. Love her!
❤ weijia….very inspiring
Weijia is the cutest wit of the MSM! ❤❤❤
Love it!!!
