People's Daily interviews Washington Post editor

The People's Daily's Washington correspondent interviewed Philip Bennet, managing editor of the Washington Post. A transcript of the interview was published on the People's Daily's English website, with a quote from Bennet as the title of the piece:

I don't think US should be the leader of the world

There does not seem to be a Chinese version of the transcript.

Right wing American blogs are freaking out, perhaps unaware that nobody actually reads the People's Daily:
