"China strongly condemns Chen Shui-bian's fake words"Posted by Eric Mu, October 14, 2004 7:23 PM
The above title is one of the most common headlines in today's newspapers. At a press conference on Wednesday morning, Zhang Mingqing, spokesman of the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council said: "In his speech, Chen Shui-bian preached that 'The Republic of China is Taiwan and Taiwan is the Republic of China', which was an open and audacious expression of 'Taiwan independence'." Other hot news: - Putin kicks off China visit. The pictured front page is from The Beijing News, and features a photo captioned 'Beijing is waiting for the NBA' showing a youth playing basketball at a shopping mall with Yao Ming's image in the background. The first NBA China Games matches will happen on October 14 and 17 in Shanghai and Beijing. The NBA teams competing are the Houston Rockets and the Sacramento Kings. |

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.
