Internet song targets western media

(02:05) Report

Apr. 14 - "Don't be too CNN", an online music video attacking Western media reports of recent Tibet unrest, gets Chinese "netizens" talking.

The music video, which is being circulated online, shows supposedly biased media dispatches while the song's lyrics attack what it says are distorted reports. A version of the song, along with the music video, was posted on Chinese state television's Web site.

SOUNDBITE:

  • Zhang Xiaojiang, Businessman, saying Mandarin):
    "When I listened to this song today, I have a feeling that the CNN distorted the truth, and lied to people all over the world. I think it is something very wrong."
  • Fang Rong, Internet inspector, saying (Mandarin):
    "Speaking rationally, every medium has its stance and background, so they have different interests and opinions. For me, I don't have any affection nor hatred for them, I just think their opinions are different from ours."
