They watch CNN alright. Jack Cafferty found that out the last time he made a slur and had to apologize. However, to really influence the mass of oppressed Chinese CNN and other western media will have to broadcast in Chinese. There's a 1.3 billion x 2 eyeballs there to catch. Its a worthwhile investment to mess up their minds. I understand perfectly *WhoFlungDung*, freedom of the press is your greatest fear. It will eventually erode the communist's hold on the Chinese people. It can't happen soon enough. cheers....Jeff You are too ideological, Am I indeed ? as long as the Communists do a reasonable good job, Collapsing schools send a horrible message to the masses. Define *reasonable job*. its hold on power, Chinese people, whatever, will be just fine. Without *freedom* how would we ever know ? You may not know that it's much more likely for a Chinese to be pro-government and anti-West after he/she is exposed to freedom of expression. Quite possible and if you are so sure of the Chinese people's preference for the one-party Communist system, then it should be relatively easy to determine if democracy is more to their taste . Should it not ? cheers....Jeff |
