But even the English ones get censored on an individual basis? I.E. if the article contains key words, what ever the CCP designates as key words, then it can be blocked by the great firewall, right?Originally posted by Alinestra Covelia
Yes, that's been the Chinese stance on most foreign language news sources since at least 2002. Reuters was opened up in 2004 (English only).Try http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate.Comment

It's a subtle but huge improvement. The BBC reminded me of London in general -- stuffy, cramped, old. 800px width before, TINY pictures, dense text, etc.
It's much better now."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

I think that opinion in the United States is decidedly different from the rest of the world because we have a free press -- by free, I mean a virgorously presented right wing point of view on the air and available to all.- NedComment

Like Asher said, if it's about news then yes.Originally posted by Theben

I only say this because in America at least, news readership of print media is dying very quickly. The last independent newspapers are posting record losses and the New Yorker even ran a story about how the market for print newspapers could be literally dead by 2043 (a date that seems rather erring on the side of ambitious rather than gloomy right now).
Online media journalism is taking its place, and I think the BBC is one of the best, though occasionally it allows its TV-chatty style to get out of hand. So what the BBC does with its web presence is of great interest to the news industry. (And geeks.)"lol internet" ~ AAHZComment

The ignore button has made my dealings with Wiglaf much easier. I only click on his posts when he's being sincere in the Video Games forums and there he's a perfectly decent guy to talk to.Originally posted by C0ckney
I think he's constructed an argumentative alterego for the Off Topic forums and is having a bit of fun at the forum's expense."lol internet" ~ AAHZComment

Again, I am amazed people are always quick to boast publicly whenever they use the ignore feature. Smugness doesn't make your dick any bigger folks.Comment

Wiglaf is actually one of the few worthwhile posters on this site, even if you don't agree with what he says."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."
