Shanghainese blogger Bingfeng Tea House comments on the newspaper China Business News (diyi caijing ribao):

the contents [of China Business News], the way of presentation, along with its clean and simple appearance, all reflect the style that its chief editor pursues - feed people with sound, fact-based information rather than make them excited.

the kiosk owner tells me that nobody buys it, “people just think it sucks”. the other two business weekly newpapers - the Economic Observer and the 21st Century Economic Report, sell good and run out quickly. the EC has a very strong idealist flavor and 21CER, due to its origin, is a newspaper that many company PR guys want to avoid to meet. these two will make your blood pressure rise, eyes open wide, heartbeat speed up ... all in all, make you excited.

i just wonder, which one sucks - the CBN or people's taste?
