《华尔街日报》今天早上8点09发了一篇名为《谷歌即将就中国审查问题作出决定》(google nears decison on China censoring),援引知情人士的话说,谷歌计划在几周内停止审查中国网页搜索结果,但公司称不太可能完全撤出中国。
1个小时后,《华尔街日报》又悄悄修改了这篇文章的标题和正文,标题改为《谷歌准备停止在华审查》(Google Prepares to Stop Censoring in China),并删除了知情人士的一句讲话,对比如下:
原文:
It is looking likely that Google will make agreements with specific ministries, this person said. For example, Google could be prohibited from certain activities in Beijing and areas where the central government exerts significant influence, but the government may be more lenient about activities in China's southern provinces, the person said.
It is looking likely that Google will make agreements with specific ministries about various parts of its business throughout the country, this person said.In addition to operating google.cn, the company has sales, research, and other operations, including investments in some Chinese companies, that could be allowed to continue operating even if google.cn is closed.
