Comments for Alex in China http://alexinchina.wordpress.com I dug a hole and this is where I came up Thu, 14 Aug 2008 21:08:39 +0000 http://wordpress.com/ hourly 1 Comment on Experience by Alex http://alexinchina.wordpress.com/2008/08/02/experience/#comment-82 Alex Thu, 14 Aug 2008 21:08:39 +0000 http://alexinchina.wordpress.com/?p=143#comment-82 You are certainly entitled to your own opinions but I must stress that you should be more careful when basing your opinion on "world views" from MSNBC and other American media venues...they are biased and not completely accurate. I can certainly assure you that I haven't candy coated anything I've written here...especially since this blog is not for a "wide market", but more so for academic purposes (and family). This has all been purely my views, my experiences and my opinions. If you really want an accurate view on the situation in China, don't listen to me or MSNBC...book a flight and check it out yourself. I guarantee it'll be an eye opening experience- I know it was for me.

The MSBC and Wikipedia links were referencing to the world's views on Civil Rights perspectives on China. My intention is not so much to take the wind out of your sails, but China has yet to respond to hundreds of wake up calls to the international community. Censorship requirements there at time force me to read between the lines. Your blog indeed is colorful, and probably accurate, but what I might call "candy coated" for wide market appeal.

And I'm curious to see how articles from MSNBC and Wikipedia are reasons why you think this is propaganda. If you don't mind, I'd like to hear specifically what in my writing spurred you to feel this way. I would much rather you give your own opinion than that of some article you read online. I’m sorry but neither of those links work.

And that’s quite an accusation

It’s easy to call something you don’t agree with “propaganda”…do you have real reasons to back that claim?

I also agree with your Nana, as between blogs, skype, and email, I think that I have at times felt closer to you on this trip than when you are in college (even though you are much furhter away). It was great to talk to you on Skype this morning by the way. Have a great week. Love Dad Great post and insight Alex.

I am enjoying your experiences! Just want to remind you to view the Eclipse on 8/1. You should have a front row seat - they are simulcasting it to SF at the Exploratorium. Love ya - Nana Hi A -
