Dishonoring a Profession

I don't care if it's true. I don't care if China deserves it. This is not the way journalism should be done.
"China lodged a formal complaint against U.S. television network CNN and said it should make a sincere apology for what it called a vicious attack by one of its commentators who labelled Chinese as "goons" and its products "junk".

CNN responded to China's initial criticism by saying there had been no intent to cause offence and that it "would apologise to anyone who has interpreted the comments in this way". It said commentator Jack Cafferty was offering a "strongly held" opinion of the Chinese government, not the people."

If our citizens seem a might dumbed down, you need not wonder why.
