media - Rumor: hundreds of journalists might resign

The weblog Non-violent Resistance tells that journalists of both the Beijing News and the Southern Metropolis Daily consider a massive resignation, after the upheaval that started with the dismissal of senior editors at the Beijing News in an effort to bring the paper to heel. (A tip of the China Digital Times.)
Journalists have been voting with their feet by going out to drink or sing karaoke in stead of going to their offices, the weblog says.
ESWN covers now mainly the western news sources, since the Chinese media are under orders not to report anything about the ongoing strike.
