Without some timely rain and wind, Beijing's Olympics will be viewed through a brownish soup of polluted air even though organisers did everything but mount giant fans outside the city to rid it of the haze. Pesky reporters were supposed to be another matter. The Chinese have a long history of doing whatever they have to do to make sure the wrong message doesn't get out. And that wasn't going to change for three weeks of fun and games, no matter how many promises were made otherwise. The International Olympic Committee must have known that, even as it repeated Chinese assurances that reporters would have unfettered access to the games and everything surrounding them. Totalitarian regimes don't suddenly open themselves up for inspection just because the world is watching, especially if they're already under fire for issues ranging from religious persecution to human rights violations. The first of some 10,000 or so media types now arriving in Beijing discovered that without even venturing out to find an underground cell of Tibetan separatists or Falun Gong members. With just a few clicks of the mouse in the main press center they found the Chinese had blocked access to Internet sites they view harmful to their self interest. Journalists wanting to research who won the race in the 1952 Olympics or which Chinese table tennis player has the chance for most medals won't have any problem. But finding out what Mia Farrow and the Dream for Darfur people are doing during the games or what the Dalai Lama is up to will be a lot more difficult. Concerned athletes will have problems, too. Students for a Free Tibet bought a ad in the New York Times this week asking them to go to a Web site to find different ways to show their support during the games, but they better take notes because that site won't be available in Beijing. That's the whole point, of course.
