Honestly, Jack As Cafferty refered to chinese people, not chinese government, he did not specified that. I bet Jack As has home appliances and furnitures and housewares are made in CHINA. Today, more than 80% of merchandise are made in China. Not everything are junk. CNN should pay for the lawsuit and fire Jack As Cafferty. No exceptions. Just like they had no choice of making apology to all the Chinese people. The U.S. superior court has accepted the lawsuit case for 1.3 billion US dollars against CNN company in New York, USA. They will have 30 days to comply. The lawyer said, it's freedom of speech, not freedom of libel.

Monterey Park, CA, USA. American investment, under American management--all those low quality staff manufactored at American invested factories in China. Chinese workers are only CHEAP labours for American investors. in this case, you should blame on your business men. for them, important is profit not your life. thugs and goons? Americans are. you are in Iraq robbering their oil, you provide weapon to every countries in the world to make them killing each other; you pretend weak your dollars to make all of the world paying your debt; you are the one who trained Taliban and gave them the weapon.Cafferty, why don't you call your government goons and thugs? it is racism comments from my point of view.[6] CNN and other foreign satellite broadcasts can be seen only in hotels, offices and housing developments open to foreigners, meaning very few Chinese would have heard Cafferty's original comments. Censors also block many foreign news sites on the Internet, pointing to an underlying irony of the ongoing protests — that they profess outrage over foreign media reports that their government does not permit them to view.[21] The Chinese Foreign Ministry lodged a strong protest with the Beijing office of Cable News Network (CNN) on Wednesday evening, condemning the network as "without any professional reputation
this looks intelligent.. until i read it and realized that most of it was just blithering nothingness. Its amazing how much someone who lives in America can hate on the country they are a resident of. If you hate your nation so much, you should move. Even as a Canadian, this type of hypocritical nonsense still bugs me. I have no great love for America, but one has to admit that, as a nation, it has done great things in the world; albeit none of those great things were done under the Bush administration. America isn't the source of the world's problems... it has just exacerbated already existing conditions in third world countries, specifically Iraq, and Afghanistan, and has taken advantage of resources in those areas. But if anyone reads history, this kind of situation is nothing new, its just modern day colonialism. I don't really understand where your post comes from... there seems to be several citation references embedded in it, so il assume it is a published document, although I can't see and self respecting news source publishing such a terribly written piece of writing. I honestly can't stand writing like this, which uses an isolated incident to bash a larger issue and interweaving their arguments, its faulty logic and bad form.
Jack Cafferty is racist and critisized China. Chinese hackers appear to be readying for an attack on the West scheduled for April 19. It appears the basis of the attack is based on the recent, and very public, pro Tibet coverage in Western media organizations... While there is no apparent link between Anti-CNN and the hackers calling for the Denial of Service attack, the team at The Dark Visitor, who have been tracking Chinese hacking activity for some time, believe that it may be members of the Red Hacker Alliance that are pushing for the online attack to accompany the physical demonstrations. According to Scott Henderson, administrator for The Dark Visitor, members of The Red Alliance have traditionally required very little in terms of direct motivation to launch politically motivated attacks against external sites. The Dark Visitor researchers have associated politically motivated attacks from this group against sites in the United States, Japan, Taiwan, and Indonesia. UPDATE 2: This story, Chinese hackers: No site is safe, from just one week ago from CNN itself: They operate from a bare apartment on a Chinese island. They are intelligent 20-somethings who seem harmless. But they are hard-core hackers who claim to have gained access to the world's most sensitive sites, including the Pentagon. In fact, they say they are sometimes paid secretly by the Chinese government -- a claim the Beijing government denies. "No Web site is one hundred percent safe. There are Web sites with high-level security, but there is always a weakness," says Xiao Chen, the leader of this group...

Forgive us please, we're human! UPDATE 3, 15:17 Shanghai Time: Pockets of people around Shanghai say they are able to access the website. CNN.com appears unblocked in Xiamen too. UPDATE 4, 15:43 Shanghai Time: CNN.com appears to be unblocked in Kunshan, which is not far from Shanghai. Owners of satellite dishes around town are saying that CNN the channel is BLOCKED! UPDATE 5: 00:19 Shanghai TimeL CNN.com appears to be finally up, BUT no news from CNN itself on what actually happened. Strange. UPDATE 6: CNN report on its site outtage in China Whatever comes around will goes around. Blame on CNN's host Jack Cafferty. It's his fault. Nobody should ever underestimate on any one or any country.
hahaha!! shameful!! i hope they get sued for more than that amount!! if he thinks chinese products are junk then im sure his whole house is filled with junk
Thats the only reason why all these negative sentiments are coming out. The main focus of the world during this summer will be in China. Recently another video of Fox News commenting on Chinese workers in NYC Chinatown donating money to the Clinton campaign gave negative views of Chinese people. One of the reporters kept on spewing "all these dishwashers and waiters" comment through out the telecast, it was sickening. Thank god one of the guest speakers called him out on it.
One of the things that you can count on is that the Chinese population is chock full of reactionaries that jump at the first sign of any sort of "insult" to the Chinese. Let's be honest, Chinese people can sometimes be their own worst enemies. Chinese industry is replete with stories, both anecdotal and proven, of egregious and blatant examples of things that no one can ever be proud about. From allegations of trading in human organs, to smuggling people, to slave children, et cetera, et cetera, ad infinitum et nauseam; its no wonder that outsiders have things to comment about. But the interesting part of all this is, that most Chinese don't want to admit that there's a problem and its a big one. Burying our heads in the sand and waving red flags at the Olympics is not going to make China, or us Chinese, a better nation or people. What it is going to take is honesty and the courage to take a long hard look at China, its problems, its leadership, AND its people as a whole. I can certainly understand the sentiment behind Cafferty's statement. He may be a closet racist, and one that is not eloquent at that, but what he said had a lot of truth behind it. While puffing out our collective Chinese chests at CNN may offer succor for our emotional hurt in view of his comments, it would be more productive to really address some of the issues that allow others to view China is such a negative way. And this whole thing about hacking CNN for the spite of it? It just shows that Chinese are spiteful. Or lets' put it this way, China and the Chinese have never been about taking the high road, and THAT I find to be the most embarrassing thing about being Chinese. Why can't we (collectively) be nice guys for a change; or do we just don't have the capacity to do so? Ralph
first of all...if this Cafferty guy isn't fired anytime soon, I would be pissed off. If he doesn't like Chinese products, then he should pretty much discard everything in his house. off topic...both CNN and Cafferty needs to try some REAL Chinese food
Wow. i wouldn't have know this. haven't read news for 3 weeks now. i am so isolated. but this is inexcusable.
