Chinese Journalist in Peril

My letter to the Editor of the New York Times:

Dear Editor,

Interesting how you covered in your Editorial of today the issue of the Chinese journalist who is being held incommunicado

"A Chinese Journalist in Peril

http://www.nytimes.com/2005/03/17/opinion/17thu3.html

It may have been more relevant if you had compared how much further the Chinese have to go to catch up with the USA, Guantanamo Bay, Abu Ghraib, AND THE SPECIAL TORTURE FLIGHTS taking prisoners to Afghanistan, Indonesia, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Libya, Morocco, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Uzbekistan,...

But, of course, The New York Times editors, correspondents and reporters like Judith Miller may not have been paid, like Armstrong Williams and male prostitute James Guckert and others, to report on these rather painful home truths?
