ChiComs Devise Plan to Combat Internet News

The Communist government of China has devised a plan to combat Internet news.

Government propaganda officials of the Politburo have been thwarted from controlling news in recent years due to the exploding popularity of independent Internet news sources.

But as the Times Online reports, the ChiComs plan to combat the free flow of uncontrolled news by using the Internet itself.

According to Communist Party officials, by being the first to post on the Internet sensitive news that may be reported independently in a manner that is embarrassing to the government, the ChiComs can get ahead of the pack and be the first to report sensitive news and thus set the content, slant and tone of such news.

I have an even better idea for the ChiComs. Just hire MSNBC, NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, Newsweek, the New York Times, the Washington Post, and their co-conspirators in the mainstream media, turn them loose with no controls whatsoever, and they will do a better PR job for the Politburo than any controlled news that comes out of the Chinese government.

I would even be willing to wager that Couric, Matthews, Olbermann, Williams, and Gibson would gladly stand in line for such an opportunity to be the cheerleaders for the ChiComs. Matthews would probably even get another 'strange sensation running up his leg.'
