ShanghaiDaily Headlines Widget for Mac0.1

Even Chinese people joke that the only thing you can believe in any newspaper is the date.

The widget itself works great, no problem. Now let us get some things straight: China is a country with a repressive communist government, that suppresses press-freedom and censors the media and the Internet. Journalists are still being imprisoned in China or 'reformed through labour', there are also journalists who are paying with their lives for investigative journalism. Very recently an environmentalist was paralyzed after a vicious attack on him, when he had given an interview to German TV. The official examination concluded that he 'broke his own neck' (quote Shanghai Daily). The headlines in the Shanghai Daily widget will give you represent China's communist party line, and the content is only what was approved by state censors.
