Soooooo with the big games coming up, one would have to be blind AND deaf not to know about how hard it is for the journalists to actually do their work. Yeah god prevent they actually say something that could enlighten the world about the fact that maybe (really i am just assuming there) some bad stuffs could be going on in China... hmm hmm.
Anyway, I am not a journalist, i am not smarter than average but I do appreciate having a press which has the freedom of expression without risking the death penalty. And i do appreciate having so many rights and privileges, even though it is so trendy to spit on all our political systems. Well guess what, there are worse.
So as i said, i am not anything close to useful and they are some way braver and way smarter people that explain it all: what it is the reality in China, especially now and why the Olympic games are NOT gonna help the Chinese People at all, despite the (how reliable) promises of the Chinese government (one of the reasons they got the games at all from what i read).
So if you have time, it is really worth reading:
- Amnesty International Report
- and of course to be up to date, Reporters Sans Frontières
