<<<::: TQ cảnh báo thế lực phản động nè. WSJ thiên lệch đưa tin về Tân Cương >>>
BEIJING, July 13 (Xinhua) -- An opinion piece entitled "I don't read the Wall Street Journal any more" has spread rapidly among China's Internet users since its electronic edition was published Saturday to refute the Journal's 'biased' reports on the July 5 riot in Xinjiang.
The piece by veteran People's Daily reporter Ding Gang cited the Journal's Asian edition, which referred to the Uygur people as protesters and the Han people as "mobs", and claimed the riot was caused by unfair treatment of the Uygur people.
"At first I thought it was the same old bias from our Western colleagues, but the image of Rebiya Kadeer and her bylined story 'The Real Uygur Story' on the Journal's website on July 8 was totally unacceptable," he said.
"The Journal's editors may as well defend themselves, saying this is balanced and fair journalism, but would it have been balanced and fair for them, had any Chinese media commented on the Sept. 11 terrorist attack against New York and Washington in 2001,saying "New York Revenge -- Muslim minorities fight U.S. hegemonism?
"Please keep in mind: those mobs, who wouldn't even let pass children, are terrorists by the standards of all nations governed by law."
"Starting from today, I've stopped bookmarking its website and have marked incoming mails from the Journal as spam," wrote Ding.
Ding, who worked as resident correspondent in Stockholm, Brussels and New York and was among the first Chinese reporters to enter the Sept. 11 terrorist attack site, said he had read the Journal for more than a decade.
"The Journal may not care if it loses one reader, but I do care about my own dignity and that of the Chinese nation.
"Frankly speaking, the journal's China reports are increasingly disappointing in recent years, some of which are biased and ignorant. I didn't unsubscribe it, thinking its financial reports and analysis are still worthy somehow.
"Its reports on the July 5 riot in Urumqi, however, are simply unbearable: this time the Journal has gone beyond bias and ignorance to blatantly take sides with the terrorists, and serve as their spokesperson."
Ding's opinion, in Chinese, was published in the print edition of the Global Times Friday and was quoted by hundreds of websites Saturday and Sunday. Most of these websites, however, deactivated readers' comments.

"I will tell my friends about what I see in Xinjiang" -- French tourist
by Xinhua writer Xia Wenhui URUMQI, July 13 (Xinhua) -- ..."I believe China can handle it, and I know it needs time to heal the wounds," said Cardin.
"If you want to ask me about what had happened in Xinjiang, I would like to tell you my idea. I think the riot had been enticed by forces outside," said Dupond, "and you know this kind of things also happened in some other countries.
"We are looking forward to sightseeing in Kashgar, and I will share my stories with friends back home and let them know I'm not crazy," said Dupond. <<::: hihi.. nghe quen nhỉ >>>
Rebiya Kadeer mocked by netizens over lies on Urumqi riot
BEIJING, July 13 (Xinhua) -- The head of the separatist World Uygur Congress Rebiya Kadeer has been mocked by netizens for her remarks about the deadly July 5 riot in Urumqi that left 184 dead.An article "The Real Uygur Story" by Kadeer, posted on the Wall Street Journal website, online.wsj.com, on July 8, told her version of the violence. She claimed "hundreds of Uygurs are now dead for exercising their right to protest", or in what she called a "peaceful assembly".
"She is like thousand miles from the epic center. How can she know the real story?" questioned Siu Tsang, in a comment forum linked to the article, on Saturday.
"Maybe indeed she had special channels to the Uygur area and is the mastermind behind the mob killing..." Tsang said.
"I did not know who this woman was, but after reading her so called opinion on the WSJ, I now believe that it is highly plausible this woman could be the mastermind behind the riots," said T. J. Chen in the same forum.
"... I just cannot get over the eerie feeling it was written before the riots took place," Chen said.
