week 21: Story 41

BBC crew attacked in China and forced to sign confession


This article from the Guardian looks at how China are restricting press freedoms and they are blocking journalists from entering villages. The Chinese government even seem to have the people on board with their regime as the locals are the ones which stopped the interview from taking place.

This just goes to show how bad the rules and regulations are in China. Even though China is now one of the biggest economies in the world they still haven't changed with the times and still follow communist attitudes. They blocked an un-biased news channel from simply reporting on a small local issue. For a country now as successful and as powerful as China i think they should let the west in, not to change them and not to flood them with out ideologies because that would never work against such a powerful country.
