Bush must be jealous of the government control over the media. Can you imagine a Bush-controlled state press talking about "a few people went to see F911"? (Funny how F911 is the first ever foreign documentary allowed in China.) At least the Chinese government is mentioning this years protest, unlike the shocker last year in Hong Kong. Let's hope that the officials who are pushing the soft approach are not pushed out of office as we have witnessed in the past.
"The headline said it was "a march by a few Hong Kong citizens." But neither the People's Daily nor any of the mainland's other entirely state-controlled media mentioned the reason for the protest or the size of the crowd.
Organizers estimate 530,000 people took to the streets to demand China allow the city-state a full return to democracy."
