Is it anything like Voice of AmeriKa?
"Chinese state radio takes to local airwaves; WILD-AM shifts formats in deal" by July 01, 2011|By Johnny Diaz, Globe Staff
Tune in to WILD-AM 1090 these days, and you can learn to speak Chinese, hear Beijing pop songs, and follow breaking news out of China.
That's because the station that catered for decades to the local African-American community with talk and news programs sold all of its airtime last month to China Radio International, the English-language news service produced by the Chinese government.
Although China Radio has placed programs on local stations for years, WILD is one of only a handful nationwide to go all-China Radio, all the time. As China expands its economic reach, the government is stepping up efforts to burnish its image globally, spending billions of dollars to expand state-sponsored media agencies, including China Radio, Xinhua News Agency, and China Central Television, a CNN-like TV service.

I'll bet it's better than any pos AmeriKan show.
With programming from a feature on a tourism boom at historical sites of the Chinese communist revolution to updates on a Shanghai museum named for Hong Kong martial-arts movie actor Jackie Chan, China Radio presents a glowing portrait of the world's most populous country.
What you won't find on China Radio is actual news, said Sophie Richardson, Asia advocacy director for Human Rights Watch in Washington, D.C.
"It's not news, it's propaganda," she said. "This is a state-run press in the truest sense of that term. There won't be anything about the rising tensions in the South China seas. You never hear anything on that radio station about China's human rights issues track record. This is very much the government's view."

"China rapped for not jailing Sudan leader" July 01, 2011|Associated Press
GENEVA - The UN's top human rights official criticized China yesterday for failing to arrest Sudan's president so that he can be brought to trial on war crimes charges.
Navi Pillay, the high commissioner for human rights, said she was disappointed that China welcomed Sudan's president, Omar al-Bashir, during a visit this week, rather than arrest him to ensure he stands trial.
So when are we going to hear some criticism for failing to arrest Israeli war criminals as well as Bush and Bliar (to name a few)?
The UN is PROVING it is NOTHING MORE than a RACIST TOOL of WESTERN IMPERIALISM!
Pillay said "the whole world favors trial" for Bashir on charges of war crimes, crimes against humanity, and three counts of genocide, the first time the world's permanent war crimes tribunal issued genocide charges.
That's if the "whole world" consists of Zionist and globalist elites.
China has a duty to enforce warrants by the International Criminal Court, she said, despite the fact that it is not a member of the tribunal, which is based at The Hague....
Neither is AmeriKa.
China may be Sudan's biggest trading partner and international protector, but on atrocities in the Darfur region, the Chinese have subtly tried to push Sudan, particularly to accept a large UN peacekeeping force.

That's all I heard coming from the Boston Globe.
Next Day Update:
"Chinese is becoming increasingly popular in the nation’s urban schools, where educators hope the language will instill a global perspective in children whose life experiences often don’t extend beyond their city’s borders....
I wish I had learned Chinese.
