China: Who could that be knocking on my door? · Global Voices

Links and headlines from two BBC Chinese stories found at the end of a post [zh] today from Blogbus blogger Boy70:
The first mentions a China Eastern pilot who after flying from Shanghai to Los Angeles applied for asylum as a Falun Gong practitoner, and the second tells the story of Hangzhou-based Haiyang newspaper (中国海洋报) reporter Zan Aizong (昝爱宗), detained on August 11 after reporting on the destruction of a church in the Eastern province of Zhejiang and criticizing government persecution of Christians. Zan is expected to be released on August 18.
这两件事最为敏感，所以我还是坚持贴了出来。

我必须要说的是，英国广播公司BBC和路透社以及更多的西方媒体缺乏最基本的职业道德。作为新闻人，他们敏感度远远高于标准。他们的存在有极大的成分是意识形态的作怪。但是，他们也是我们的另一双眼睛，可以看清我们国家见光死的一面。
According to a report on overseas Chinese dissident website Boxun, the outspoken social critic [zh] was contacted by Hangzhou police on August 4, told not to leave the city and his computer was confiscated. On August 10 he was released from his job at the newspaper and arrested on August 11 on the grounds of “spreading rumors and disturbing public order.” A statement following the report links Zan's arrest to his writings, his being a Christian and Chinese PEN [zh] member and goes on to demand, among other things, Zan's unconditional release, the return of his computer equipment and reinstatement as reporter and webmaster for Haiyang newspaper.
Among the fifty-four names attached to the statement—many of which are prominent dissident writers and activists—is that of oft-harrassed AIDS activist Hu Jia (胡佳), who has recently revived his MSN Live Spaces blog which can be found here [zh]. His wife, Zeng Jinyan (曾金燕), has been blogging for the past two months on her own Spaces blog [zh] of life under constant state stakeout.
