Much ado about nothingPosted by Jeremy Goldkorn, February 25, 2004 1:47 PM
The teacher who supposedly posted nude photos of herself to her 'zhu ying qing tong' blog is still in the news, despite the fact that the photos wouldn't shock a Baptist granny.
Here is a China West News report from which the above photo was ripped. More on this piece of media puffery on Brainysmurf, and on Danwei. Thanks again to Shanghai Eye for pointing out this story that just won't die, and for campaigning against the global scourge on humanity known as golf. Also from Shangai Eye, commentary on the amazing fact that Chinese people have sex: "Many westerners, weened on decades of Cold War propaganda, are often surprised to find that people in China actually have sex drives. Novice reporters tend to begin their stints in Shanghai or Beijing hanging around in the dirtier corners of the local entertainment industry, interviewing masseuses and hairdressers and KTV hostesses before telling the world, in breathless tones, that China is the new Babylon." |

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.
