Around The Blogosphere on Labor Day 2009

We lead off this morning with Pat Austin posting about the lack of MSM coverage of Van Jones: I'm watching ABC's Good Morning America as I write this, and they're telling the story... maybe waiting for Labor Day to do so... the other two "big stories" today are the boy in the wall and that tiff over whether our President should be allowed to address schoolchildren!

Fresh protests broke out in Xinjiang this week following news that Uighurs had been attacking people with syringe needles. Is this terrorism? Why resort to a tactic like this? Just some of the questions being asked of the autonomous region, still disconnected from the Internet after two months.

"Yunnan Naked Girl" Peng Chunping has become one of the hottest topics on the Chinese Internet...

Since July 2008, the 21-yaer old has published three sets of nude photos. Each time, some media contacted her. But all her injustices have not been vindicated yet. This 21-year-old girl from a remote mountainous area did not attend school and held no steady job for the past four years. Her sole goal in life was to petition against the injustices at all costs. These costs include posting nude photos of herself in order to attract Internet traffic; offering her body to real or fake government officials, or reporters; finding "boyfriends" and even "fiancés" in order to raise the money to file petitions.
