China Blocks ABC

BBC, which has had more than its fair share of being blocked by China, says ABC was blocked on August 22.    The usual reason is not enough self-censorship.  Shame on you ABC....  trying to corrupt the Chinese innocents.  The New YorkTimes and BBC are always blocked after they ran (and still run) stories about the rich and famous in China.  That is enough to get you blocked, so China blocks a lot more than just those two.  I get blocked there too, so consider myself in good company, now that ABC has joined.

In their usual fashion, the story followed with this:  "An official at the Office of the Central Cyberspace Affairs Commission told the journalists: "China's internet is fully open. We welcome internet enterprises from all over the world to provide good information to the netizens of China."  Oh yes, we can see that.
