So either it's changing, or it's losing control or both.

Oh really. Why is the internet increasingly effectively censored in the PRC? How is it that they are brazenly hoping to make Australia an subordinate political colony if they are "changing"? Why is it that Fox's Hong Kong affiliate slavishly echoes the Bejing line? And as for your claims of Hong Kong stations criticising "Bejing" when, where, and how? Proof is lacking, and your word is not anywhere supported.

Let's see some proof that there are Chinese stations that attack Marx, Lenin and Mao, and oh yeah, Deng Xiouping, and the current passel of leaders, and communism per se. And then let's see what happens to any reporters that have the temerity to do so...and how quickly they land in a Laogai concentration camp. I doubt you can supply any proofs which support your thesis.

When an extraordinary claim is made, extraordinary proof is required.

And always remember the duplicitous nature of the Communist Beast. As Deng Xiouping told the Party faithful: "It doesn't matter whether you call the cat black our white. All that matters is that it catches mice."

Why don't you go there and check it out. That's all I can say. I saw news reports openly criticizes the government policies on the HK news. That's what i am saying -- they allow that on digital cable. The local Chinese news are still tightly controlled but for whatever reason, HK news can be seen in China.
