Comments on 1964 U.S. anti-China propaganda
Hilarious!
Even more hilarious: link
thanks for the history lesson, really.
thanks
You guys are doing a fab job. I read you stuff every day right after China Digital Times and before ESNW. Bang up combination for news from and about China.
the US propaganda nowadays is still more or less the same...
I like seeing these things (and Stuart's link) but I really want to see some Anti-American or Anti-West propaganda from China at the same time. Did they ever make anti-films?
I recall many years ago seeing a CBS newsprogram made in the 60's on the History channel. They (It wasn't 60 minutes but I believe Mike Wallace was the reporter) were allowed into China during the cultural revolution and it was a very interesting watch. All the "intellectuals" were refering to outsiders as running dogs, the US reporters were charged with insulting Mao, and the factories were making such high quality truck engines (of course this was show to the reporters on purpose). Does anyone know the program I am talking about?
the english voices of mao, and the chinese military instructor are hilarious! :D
sadly this film actually give better information that history book I had in high school back in California
17:15 "Raul Castro, Fidel's younger brother, travels behind the Bamboo Curtain to be greeted and decorated by Chinese military officials."
