media - Wanne watch Shanghai TV?

Obvious at the Shanghai Media Group (SMG) some people think the outside world is rather eager to see their censored news and boring shows. The Washington Post reports that Time Warner's AOL has signed an agreement with that purpose. They intend to show it on their Chinese language channel.
Why would this happen? My guess is that Time Warner is desperately looking for a way to enter China and has accepted to do this for that purpose. Could see no other reason.

Update: Asiapundit notes that the AOL service in Chinese is not available in China.
While it had gone largely unnoticed in initial news reports that the original Google Chinese language site (http://www.google.com/intl/zh-CN/) remained available in China alongside the censored Google.cn, it has gone completely unnoticed that the AOL service has been rendered inaccessible in mainland China.
