BBC Corrigenda

July 1, 2009 | Filed Under General Stuff |

Those of you who may have been watching my unscheduled TV premiere may have heard me babbling semi-consciously about why Green Dam is wrong, why we can climb over that Great Big Firewall and stuff. I was tuning in as well — the cameralady (let’s no longer do male-only job titles!) let me in on what the BBC was talking about in London. Boom. Guy on TV introduced me as “blogger and radio host”.

Yep — I do have a radio gig at Radio Beijing, where I co-do (”guest host”) the travel shows. I’ve been doing this for over a year and a half now — so that’s part of my daytime gigs. However today I did not appear “courtesy of”, or “in affiliation with” Radio Beijing, so I’d like to clear the radio station from any wrongdoing — you know, anti-Green Dam rhetoric or “related wrongdoing” (to put it in perfect #Zhongguolish).

The “blogger” bit, though, is fine. “Tweeter” might be better, but that’s for when Auntie Beeb is a 140-character game… 140 days down the road from now? Hmm…

Update: Google “David Feng BBC” and you’ll find “Radio talk host David Feng” galore. Good going guys. But hey, that’s just part of the truth. Tech watcher sounds better — thanks…
