MAS S61: assignment #7

Rumors that the fate of former Chongqing party secretary Bo Xilai would be announced on the CCTV evening news spread Tuesday afternoon. The state-owned Chinese media failed to mention Bo on the 7 PM evening news. Shortly after 11 PM, Xinhua News Agency published a one-sentence statement on Bo.

    You're seriously going to believe Reuters over 新闻联播? The only thing Reuters is good for is getting Bloomberg to lower their prices.

    新华社工作人员在微博上说十一点播发大结局，我好奇，原定七点档播出大结局是否真有此事？（据我了解，好像真有此计划来着），如确有此计划，为啥改了？剧本没写好？发现啥bug临时改剧情？

    I'm going blind watching Xinhua. The TV news (switched on to Chongqing and CCTV channels) is blaring from all directions. #bo xilai rumours
