media - AFP revamps an old report
 
I just discovered that AFP - in a need to comply with the standards of sweatshops - revamped yesterday an old report, drawing very different conclusions. The first report dates from June and suggests that Chinese cities have actually become cheaper. In this week's report they suggest Chinese cities have become more expensive than ever.
Stupid me did not realize AFP was talking about the same report. Now foreign correspondence is hardly financially supported, you can hardly expect us to check our own stories, can you?
