From the Central News Agency, translated by Joseph McMullin, via Press Interpreter:
Persons working in the state controlled Chinese media have leaked a memo from the Chinese government that requires news agencies to reduce or cut their coverage of the mass street demonstrations.
One of China’s most popular websites, sina.com.cn originally posted an article entitled, “Please Sign Here If You Oppose Japan’s Intention of Joining the Security Council***.” The article was originally placed in the column entitled, “Headline News,” but by the fourth, the article had been placed in the far right column under the heading, “Current News.” The official Chinese news network, xinhuanet.com, did not mention anything about the petition drive*** or the boycott.
