For news on Tibet, turn to Boing Boing
Internet news at its best.

  • Truthiness

    There has been a massive nationalistic response among young Chinese against the international media's coverage of the Tibetan protests. I suggest www.anti-cnn.com which has a long list of various images that have been misused by the intl media.... Given your interest in "truth" and the internet, I thought that you might be interested.

    It should be noted that this website and others like it are making small points but unwilling to look at the larger questions of the Tibetan situation (as in, no one is questioning China's rule of Tibet).

  • Late to the party again, Farhad

    !

    Even the NYT reworked their (BB's) coverage in an article last week.

    However the one image that I don't think I've seen on BoingBoing is this one; just to put into perspective what's on going:

  • Burmese monks think you have a 12 day attention span

    That's why dictatorships don't care what you think or do.
