One of the videos on the Mainichi Daily New's website this week is a report on how Chinese police uncovered a plot to attack the Beijing Olympics, how they killed the alleged terrorists in the trying to apprehend them, and how just a week before the flight crew of a Chinese jetliner prevented the 9/11-like crash in a separate case. While displaying video footage of a mosque setting in what one assumes is location in China, the report links the terrorists to an extremist movement in Northeastern China.
This is certainly an interesting video to have up, not to mention a rather hot topic given the current issues with terrorism, China, human rights, and independence movements/rebellions. The footage especially shows only images of the Olympic symbols and the mosque-like setting. I think that there is a mild bias/frame involved in order to link the Olympics and the alleged terrorist attempts. No mention was actually made in the video regarding the terrorists who were killed, nor did they mention actions that China was taking besides the a brief comment that authorities weren't revealing anything. The video was accredited to the AP.
