"Sexy Beijing" on CNN.com

Glad to see that longtime Granite Studio favorite Anna “Su Fei” Loewenberg and the gang at Danwei.tv are getting some well-deserved props. CNN.com today has a story on Anna and the “Sexy Beijing” series. I know the whole thing has its detractors (check out the strong responses, pro and con, in the comments sections on YouTube–also instructive for anyone wanting to get inside the head of the knee-jerk defensiveness that passes itself off for ‘patriotism’ here).

YJ and I think the episodes are great fun. It’s all done with the tongue firmly in, ahem, cheek–and they even slip a little information in here and there, too. Anna & the guys: keep doing what you’re doing.
