China is changing 9:06pm on 30 Apr 2008 He also falsely reported on Chinese state media's reaction on the Olympic torch rely. It was first broadcasted on Sunday 6 April at 1900 BST. At the time he claims that no Chinese media had reported pro-Tibetan protests. He suggests that the Chinese state media tried to keep the news of the protests from the Chinese public. BBC "apologised" for the mistake in the Editor's blog (which I had to use the website search engine to locate the page) and in an edition of In the News on an early Saturday morning (who watches News on early Saturday mornings?). He barely got a slap on his wrist and kept reporting and now has his own blog. Why are we, the licence fee payers paying thousands of pounds for a biased reporter to go to China and all he came up with are news bashing China and humiliating the people of China. Surely the Chinese has their problems, but who are we to judge them. The worst is none of the western media can produce a fair and balanced view on China. Same with the Tibet history page here on the BBC. It fail to mention the Dalai lama was a dictator when he was in power. It fail to mention during the British "expedition" Colonel Younghusband killed thousands of Tibetans. It also failed to mention the what the Chinese had done to improve Tibet and abolition of slavery in Tibet. I hope BBC can be fair towards the Chinese government. At the end of the day, their economy is improving, people's lives are getting better (that's why we have more and more Chinese students each year to pay ridiculous university fees), and people can now read news from the BBC website. I would like to see his personal apology on this Blog about the report. Otherwise, I don't see what is point of listening to him any more, he is just another biased journalist
