China tabloid journalism for the worldPosted by Jeremy Goldkorn, November 30, 2003 8:08 PM
If you arrived here by curiously Googling for Mu Zi Mei after reading about her in the New York Times, or Straights Times, or the Guardian: Welcome! At Danwei you will find all you need to wade your way through the shallows of the Chinese media business in the last few months of 2003. Everything about Mu Zi Mei (or Mu Zimei or muzimei) is archived here, or you can click on the 'Mu Zi Mei' category on the left. Ridiculous real estate ads are here, stuff about Bill Clinton is here and intellectual property dubiousness is here. Saucy stuff about glossy magazines is here; less saucy stuff about newspapers is here. Click here for recommended links. Transsexuals are here. If none of that interests you, take a look at this:
It's the cover image from a book of images by Shenzhen photographer Yang Yong, published by Timezone 8: whom you can find here. You can buy the book there too. UPDATE: It seems that the Guardian article about Mu Zi Mei hasn't been published yet. On November 27, Chinese blogger Topku posted an item about the progress of a a Guardian journalist locating Mu Zi Mei for an interview. It is now November 30. Let's see how long to the Guardian's interview-to-print process takes. |

Classic Danwei posts
+ The top Chinese books in 2007 (2008.02): China Reading Journal (中华读书报), Yazhou Zhoukan (亚洲周刊), and City Pictorial (城市画报) choose mainland China's top books for 2007. + Men behind the Nanny (2005.04): The Publicity Department (formerly known as the Propaganda Department) has held a "forum" in Beijing to promote what it calls "news editorial staff management regulations (in testing phase)". These regulations appear to be same the set of rules earlier reported on Danwei of which the stated intent is to clear up corrupt journalistic practices. + Asimov Published, Interviewed in Beijing (2005.03): Cover story from this week's Book Review section of The Beijing News announces the publication of a Chinese translation of Isaac Asimov's complete Foundation series. Yup, the Beijing News has scored a fictional interview with "I, Asimov". They've been taking similar liberties recently in their entertainment sections, captioning photographs of celebrities with made-up quotes.
