Journalists at a major Chinese paper, Southern Weekly, have gone on strike in a rare protest against censorship.

The row was sparked last week when the paper's New Year message calling for reform was changed by propaganda officials.

Some carried banners that read: "We want press freedom, constitutionalism and democracy".


Well 1st rumours of N.Korea opening up its economy a bit and now Chinese journalists are standing up for themselves and demanding what every in China wants.

How do you think this will turn out?

China (their people) has always hated it's government for not allowing freedom of speech. But if they give them that right, they know it's just Gorbachev all over again.
