media - Another flame hits the internet

Just as I was wondering why the unruly mob of foreign correspondents was keeping so quiet after The Guardian published its take on the Benjamin Joffe-Walt case, another flame hit the mailbox of the members of the Shanghai Foreign Correspondents Club.
Fellow SFCC-member Danny Lam had last week nominated Joffe-Walt for the Jayson Blair Award, raising the tensions among the membership. While I am very much in favor as sarcasm as a communication tool, I found this not only not funny, but way out of line with reality.
Lam now claims to be censored by SFCC-president Lohse, giving a new twist to this non-story. Danny Lam posted his story on the SFCC mailing list, so if the story is true, censorship as yet again failed.
At least, the SFCC has now its own dissidents.
