Online in China: an audio analysis

02 July 2008





Check out this great podcast about the Internet in China. It's from the US's National Public Radio's On The Media program.

NPR says:

" … The internet in China is both censored by the government and used for surveillance, but American companies make the calculation that it is better to be there, albeit in a diminished capacity, than not at all. Nevermind, Chinese internet users are getting organized on the web and the result is real social change …"

It features interviews with Rebecca MacKinnon, former CNN Beijing Bureua chief and now assistant professor at the University of Hong Kong's Journalism and Media Studies Centre, and Jeremy Goldkorn, who runs the Chinese media site Danwei.org.

Commenting is not available in this weblog entry.
