№ 687.1 EXTRA! Copying Xi


Journalists in Chinese state media to be tested on loyalty to President Xi Jinping

About 10,000 reporters and editors in Beijing are expected to take ‘pilot tests’ next month using Xuexi Qiangguo mobile app

Nationwide exams – with sections on Xi’s political thinking and Marxism – will be held later and press cards will only be issued to those who pass

The media oversight office made clear that updated press cards, which are essential for those working in the industry, would only be issued to journalists who had passed the exam. Those who fail will have one chance to take the test again, according to the notice.

MYWAY (September 21)








Now, why couldn't I do something like that
as a way of combating FAKE NEWS?
Reporters, editors (photographers, too!)
would have to adhere to my hues
and stop telling lies with film and transcriptions
of color and words I may say
when it is clear from FOX's depictions
I'm tan and the words were just throw away.

But if I had someone put in a book
all of of my geniusy thinking,
then U.S. enemies (the press and the Dems)
would have, at least, an inkling,
and begin to suspect all of my thoughts
tornado spin. . .barn weather vane. . .
It is a fact, I don't think, I react.
I've got a crocodile brain.
