Airbrushing History and The Tank Man
In the spirit of President Hu's victory lap around the U.S., reader John Manley sends along two interesting links. This one searches for images of Tiananmen on Google.com, while this one does the same search on Google.cn.
By the way, no one knows what happened to the man, who Google.cn erases, in front of that tank. From Frontline's "The Tank Man":
To this day, who he was and what became of him remains a mystery.
Perhaps someone at Boeing or Microsoft or Google can inquire as to what happened to this man after toasting the next business deal. I'm all for business investment but people like The Tank Man should not be forgotten.
"China Rocks"!
