BEIJING (Reuters) - About 100 Beijing News reporters walked out in protest at this week's dismissal of the top editor, the latest victim of China's strict press controls, industry sources said on Friday.

Disgruntled journalists also displayed their anger through a photograph in the paper showing a flock of birds flying through dark skies above the newspaper's office, with one bird leading. "The sky may not be very clear, but they will still fly into the distance with their mission close to their hearts," said a note with the picture.

It almost seems like the words of the article are placed so you would purposely think about the holocaust, when skimmed through out of context. Eerie.

brace yourself...


REPUBLICAN!

I dunno why, in honesty. I find it sad that the Chinese have the great urge to censor the news...but so does American media to an extent. Go figure.

At least chinese media aren't subtle about it. I hate censorship in the media, but censorship in a media where everyone still goes 'what are you talking about! Freedom of the press!" is annoying.
