    Jeez, just found this blog telling about: "This week we saw tragedy strike as a fellow blogger/citizen journalist was slain in China."

    He got the news from technocrunch, which is so unprofessional that they didn't even bother to check who was killed -- not a journalist/blogger at all. The guy who was killed was the boss of a big local state-owned company, middle age, kind, hard-working. He was part of the elite with some conscience, rare species. Was it because of this identity of his contradicts the stereotype of Chinese elite in western journalists' eyes? Or was it simply because they were too reluctant to check the fact? I am left speechless...

    Sometimes, a journalist really needs the honesty of a writer to face the reality and tell the real truth, not to be distorted by the mindset of popular media. Without this honesty, he would not be able to see the complication of human nature and human society, even if it is the human nature and society of today's China.

  • CNN也够次。什么叫blogger?用手机拍东西就是blogger么?魏文华可能连博客怎么使都不知道呢。服了这些高级世界混混。
  • 都是CNN惹的祸:http://edition.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/asiapcf/01/11/china.blogger/index.html 标题原本是\"Chinese blogger beaten to death\"(URL为证),但正文中没有提及blogger这个概念。可能是“用手机拍城管执法“让他们想起“公民记者”,然后从公民记者联想到blogger。
