The following is what I published on some forums in China, and some people have tested and found what I said is true - the CNN sets a hidden filter on its purportedly unmoderated iReport forum to filter out my post that reveals the racial/political persecution by the US and Canadian governments. Now it is clear how hypocritical of the US's "freedom of speech" is. While the US attacks China for "restricting free speech of Chinese people on Internet", it itself is doing the same but just UNDERGROUND.
I have published my story on some Chinese forums in China about how the US and Canadian governments commit racial/political persecution on me. Yet many Chinese did not believe my story because of their ever so strong faith in Western “democracy”.
Learning that from China people can view US’s CNN Website, I found a most direct and accurate way for the Chinese in China to test the US “democracy” by their own experience – try to publish my story on CNN’s “iREport”. As claimed by CNN, every one can post stories that she/he considers a news in this section, and all users at iReport can share each other’s news stories even though the CNN does not pick up these stories as news and report them.
On October 22, 2006, I tried to publish my story to iReport. However, each time when I finished and pressed the “submit” button, a white page turned up with a message: “You are not authorized to view this page…”. Even if I changed my user name, still the same happened. Yet when I only wrote one word “test”, it got published right away when I pressed the “submit” button. Obviously the CNN, one of the major media in US, the leader of the world’s “democracy” cause, had already set up a filter to filter out my story – whenever my name or certain key words of my story appear, the post is automatically blocked. Then I played a little trick – used a nick name, wrote up a simple message without my real name and URL of my Web page, but in stead used a link to my post on a Chinese forum (
http://www14.tianya.cn/publicforum/Content/worldlook/1/126501.shtml ), and when I pressed the button, it was successfully submitted! Although from the link people on iReport at that moment could only see mostly Chinese, but there is some English writing about my story there and the URL of my English Web page is there. This is kind of “black humor” indeed.
This was the first time I tried to publish my story with CNN. Years ago, I only tried to get my story published by NEW YORK TIMES, WASHINGTON POST etc. newspapers, and I also tried to do that on HAVE YOUR SAY of NEW YORK TIMES. But of course got no response at all and my message on HAVE YOUR SAY of NEW YORK TIMES was deleted moments later. It was years ago and I have never contacted the CNN in anyway. It is incredible that CNN would already anticipate my attempt to publish my story on its iReport and had already set up a filter awaiting for me. Apparently this is a government operation. Otherwise it is hard to believe all the US media would have the same knowledge about my story and act in the same way to block its exposure.
Now here I would like to invite all friends on the Chinese forums to test the American “democracy” by their own personal experience. First, use the English version of my story or any of my complaints, to the US Congress or the United Nations’ Office of High Commissioner for Human Rights, plus the URL of my Web pages: (
http://www.wliao.150m.com/ and
http://www.globility.com/~wxl85/), put down a whatever name and try to publish it. The subject line must be in English such as “Chinese immigrant in Canada complains to the US Congress against abuse of rights by US government”, etc. (Some Chinese people have already tested out and found the filter). (Please make sure to check back few minutes or hours later to see if it is still there in case your post got published.) And then try to publish a story about some kind of news in China or anywhere else. (Must be true story just in case). There should be no my name and Web page in it. Now you will see the difference and understand the so called “democracy” of the US. If you need any English version of my story, go to my Blog on Sina.com,
