Bondi hero Ahmed al-Ahmed should be honoured, but his courage cannot hide uncomfortable truths, warns Anna Stanley. Honouring bravery is good; weaponising it to deny reality is not.

The ridiculous high level of anti-China propaganda from the media during the Olympics...

category international | rights, freedoms and repression | opinion/analysis author Wednesday August 27, 2008 16:34author by BrainwashedSportsFan Report this post to the editors

Western media coverage of China's hosting of the Olympics was at best disingenuous and seemed more like propaganda than news most of the time

If you, like me, were fed up of anti-China propaganda from the media during the Olympics...

China has its issues, sure, but much of the western media never found a good thing to say about them through the whole thing. Thats just far too much like propaganda for me.

They seem to like Chinese money though. The US government can't get enough of it!! And US corporations can't seem to get enough of the cheap labour either, and their weak pollution laws. Talk about total hypocrisy!!!

I hope they are equally conscientious during the London Olympics in 2012! There's plenty to talk about, with London having more cctv cameras per square km than china could ever aspire to, detention without trial, and waging an illegal war of aggression on Iraq/Afghanistan, which was considered the most serious offence committed by the Nazis according to the Nuremberg judiciary.
(fat chance!) :(
