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."

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！
