Here’s a song from a Chinese punk band that provides some welcome perspective to all the angsting about nationalistic Chinese youth and CNN: I don’t watch CCTV by Beijing-based band Defy.
A sample of the lyrics (sung in English):
I don’t watch CCTV
I don’t watch this fucking channel…
… Ai, I don’t like you…
… CCTV, CCTV, CCTV
Fucking channel
Fucking channel
