“There is a tug of war in the Chinese propaganda ministry between traditionalists, who want to maintain control and suppress bad news, and reformers, who -- while not advocating unrestricted media -- see the need to accept the new realities of the Internet and the blogosphere.” - Peter Herford Cheung Kong School of Journalism and Communication, Shantou University
