Click on and read how the biased New York Times finally spun the story of the Chinese torch relay ascent to the peak of Himalayas, i.e. the peak of Qomolangma, in TIBET's Automonous Region. QOMOLANGMA, dudes ! Not MT. EVEREST, as the White Man likes to call it.

Yesterday, I had blogged (See below)about how the story has been massaged and distorted to suit the Westerner's distaste of any but their own "macho" mountaineering feats. And from most of the Western news media, the story of the ascent of the Olympics torch up the Himalayas had been mostly embargoed or deminimalized. Talk about a Free Press. What good is is a "Free Press" if the freedom is not exercised responsibly by white people in the WEST, embued with their own "white supremacist" hubris ?
