Three articles about China hit the press today, taking three very different perspectives.



First, The Guardian argues, "China is in the midst of a guerrilla war, a conflict against the world's biggest censor that is very much in keeping with the information age. In the 1940s, Mao's communist rebels used hit-and-run tactics to sap the morale - and eventually defeat - the numerically superior but morally bankrupt nationalist forces. This time, it is journalists, bloggers and dissidents who are probing the defences of a more powerful but equally despised enemy: the propaganda department of the Communist party."



The Washington Post focuses on the role of Wikipedia in China. The reference site has been blocked in the country in spite of citizen protests.



The Chinese publication Interfax China takes a lighter spin on things with the summary of results of a survey conducted by one of the nation's leading consulting firms. The article claims that although 52% of white collar workers in the country maintain blogs, "Unlike western bloggers who often focus on news and politics [they] see complaining alongside office and personal gossip as their priorities, according to the survey."
