Sean, I looked on the Vice website but can’t seem to find the article you’re referring to. Would you happen to know where I can find it? It sounds hilarious, and I’ve always wondered what kind of person would willingly work for Xinhua.

What a butt you are, “CB”!

But(t), I do support honesty in usernames, so you get a gold star for this one.

You’d really need a better understanding of American culture to understand why it’s funny.

But it’s good to see you tried.

An instant, and typical “follow the sheep” American assumption that “butt” in this context means ass. But that’s not necessarily so. http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/butt
Sometimes I’m not sure whose English usage is worse; Chinese, or Americans.
PS: In the name “Beijing Cream” do you actually refer to Anthony Tao’s jizz?

They go on about the US press demonizing China, but really the Chinese press demonizes the US much worse….

I personally wrote that headline, and I stand by it. Foreign journalists should stop speaking farts.

The funniest part was when the writer identified himself as ‘a journalist’. Maybe he has an actual background in journalism but that job does not permit him to consider himself as such. A hack would have been much closer to the truth.

Ah, its ok, they all end up burning out their liver or their personal relationships fall apart and they move on to the next stage in their ‘career’. No harm no foul, right? Even people with serious mental deficiencies ought to be able to work and make money for themselves, I say.

Theres an article on VICE somewhere about the guys who run xinhua’s twitter account. It was pretty funny
