Kudos to the Los Angeles Times for dropping the original first sentence of this story: "In China these days, it’s like scenes out of Alfred Hitchcock’s 'The Birds.'” Quote: By Barbara Demick
BEIJING — On a subway car in Shanghai, commotion breaks out when someone spots a live chicken poking its head out of a bag tucked under one of the seats. On a highway in Zhejiang province, a motorist is so panicked by bird droppings landing on her windshield that she stops the car and calls traffic police for help. Internet photos of dead sparrows on a Nanjing sidewalk are ordered removed by police, fearing they might go viral. |
