C@K news agency very popular in China right now

Maybe you don't know what is C@K news agency,in China there isn't C@K news agency officially,but in Chinese bbs you will often read some news and editorials which are reported by C@K news agency,you may wonder how C@K news agency exist in China thanks to all Chinese media controlled by Chinese communist party,because all media are controlled by Chinese government so that C@K news agency were born in Chinese bbs,everyone can be a reporter if he or she wants to be in any Chinese bbs,they report news in a special ways in which they don't report them directly,they use metaphors to explain what they really want to say in order to avoid the deletion of their posts.

In Chinese" C "called" Cao" which means *beep*,"K "called "Kao" which means suck,C@K means horsefeathers and digression,because Chinese government doesn't want to hear different voices from their people,then people in China manage to explain their own views through these special ways.

They report some news indirectly ,for example when they want to report news about China they change China into other country's name but readers know which country they exactly refer to,when they want to criticize government policy they use historical stories to explain their opinions and mock current Chinese leaders,when they want to expose news twisted by state-media they use facts to report them again by different news 'names and so forth.

It is very pitiful that China appears C@K news agency.Chinese people don't have the freedom of speech and freedom of press,so that Chinese people can't help but say what they want to say through these special ways in order to stay safe or wisely say what they want to say,when they do this kind of reports, Chinese government doesn't have some effective ways to stop them,then the freedom of speech has been reached to some extent by Chinese Internet users.
