November 17th 2008 23:30
China's leadership is taking aboard an issue that could split the various bureaucratic power bases. Unable to handle most media issues the Chinese government could find themselves inundated by international skepticism as a result.
According to The Age the feud threatens to expose fissues in leadership circles and dates back to the Tiananmen Square massacre of 1989 when the party secretary Zhao Ziyang was purged for refusing to support the suppression of students and workers.
An official from the Culture Ministry (get it, their culture is suppression) visited the editor of their most liberal magazine, Yanhuang Chunquiu, the 85 year old Du Daozheng asking for his resignation because of an approving piece on Zhao Ziyang whose name has been banned from Chinese media for close to twenty years.
It is only these events, treated by the media as small items, that strike to the very heart of an oppressive China. More on China can be found on www.billgreenbooks.com
