Have you watched the Africa Live news cast?

Wow! I am so glad I stumbled into this gem looking for background noise and holy crap!

China is no freaking joke. I will be watching this show as often as possible from here on out. Right now I'm learning all about the Chinese economy and their culture and listening to statements their government is putting out about ending poverty and raising Chinese life expectancy.

Look at what they are writing articles about and how different it is from our news in the US. What the f****. They get real world news and information about what is going on around the world.

I think I'll be spending a while on this site combing through articles.

I am curious what you think about those statements the Chinese government is putting out. Do you think they are reliable and trustworthy?

I don't know to be honest but how's that any different from the statements our government puts out?
At least it's something what we get here is a media black out.

Thanks for the link. For a year now I I've been weary of a sight I came across called China Smack dot Com. Not so safe for work.

The sight you found is better. Thanks again.

No doubt about it. I for one though, would be very skeptical about any propaganda put out by a Communist nation. Democratic too, no doubt, fascist ones too, in fact every government.

I'm not stating they are wrong or are lying, I don't know either. I would just be very skeptical with any statement put out from a government owned news service. Could be true, but you never know. No freedom of press, well, they kinda can make up whatever they want.

wow a Non Multicultural News Cast? Amazing! And all this time i thought every Country on the planet spread MultiCulturalism.

It makes me wonder if anyone non black has made an issue about other cultures not being given a front seat on their newscast, or is it just that they're racist?

i'm 'jesting of course'.... Just thought those who do that in the West might rethink their damn positions.
