Police parade in GuangzhouPosted by Eric Mu on Tuesday, May 20, 2008 at 3:50 PM
 Information Times May 20, 2008 Today's Information Times doesn't contain quake-related reporting on its front page, which makes it stand out from the rest that are still submerged in earthquake mourning. The front page of the Guangzhou-based newspaper features a selection of photos about a police parade that took place in the city on Monday. The main photo shows policemen practicing shooting tear gas canisters. The three smaller photos on top show armored personal carriers, police personnel carrying new-model weapons, and a counter-terrorism drill. According to the newspaper, the theme of the parade was "preparing for the Olympics and ensuring the safety of Guangdong." At bottom-right, a notification says that the publication of a guide to the high school entrance exam will be postponed. The reason given is that "according to requirements from the top, this newspaper will fully devote itself to reporting the earthquake." |

Classic Danwei posts
+ Korean history doesn't fly on Chinese TV screens (2007.09): SARFT puts the kibbosh on Korean historical dramas. + Religion and government in an uneasy mix (2008.03): Phoenix Weekly (凤凰周刊) article from October, 2007, on government influence on religious practice in Tibet. + David Moser on Mao impersonators (2004.10): I first became aware of this phenomenon in 1992 when I turned on a Beijing TV variety show and was jolted by the sight of "Mao Zedong" and "Zhou Enlai" playing a game of ping pong. They both gave short, rousing speeches, and then were reverently interviewed by the emcee, who thanked them profusely for taking time off from their governmental duties to appear on the show.

Comments on Police parade in Guangzhou
还是那句话，看清楚再指责人！当天信息时报推出了地震救灾的特刊，整个特刊是包夹着里面的主报（也就是大家看到的），这代表没有地震报道吗？
如果是别有用心的冤枉人，可以告诉你省省吧！
this is not a fact.
Maybe you just read the website of Information Times...As the matter of fact, there are 2 top news of Information Times in these days. All news about the earthquake are issued in a special A section more than 24 pages.
少来,中国人就麻烦你用中国话说!
麻烦你张开你的眼睛,看看,在这个你所谓的头版前面,还有一个包版!那叫特叠!!!!
再者,麻烦你用用你的脑袋,分析完所有东西之后,看清看楚有没有因为你手震丢掉了那叠特叠,再发表你的所谓评论!
一个说自己是什么中国的广告,媒体专家~~
P话都不是在了解全部事情发出的,果然是P话~~~
