【原文】(by David Schlesinger)
I’ve been a China watcher for much longer than I’ve been a journalist — Chinese language, literature, history and politics were my passions and the objects of my academic study before I ever found my vocation. And for a watcher of modern Chinese politics, few texts in my 30 years in the field have been as important as the People’s Daily, the official newspaper of the Communist Party.
With a circulation of three to four million, it is one of the world’s biggest papers; with its direct ties to the top Party leaders, it has long been the way official policy shifts have been announced or hinted at.
When I was Reuters China bureau chief from 1991-94, the unalterable start of every day’s routine was to study the newspaper from front to back, trying to piece together the hints contained in an article, an editorial, in the choice of words or in the selection and placement of pictures.
This was the practice of journalists and scholars from the very founding of the newspaper in 1948, a year before the People’s Republic of China was formally established.
Even today, China watchers and journalists believe little gets into the newspaper by accident.
Imagine my surprise, then, when my own face appeared on page 17 of today’s edition above an interview on Reuters coverage of the Olympics.
In the old days, such a presentation might have meant I was destined for high office — today, it just signifies how China has changed its attitudes towards the foreign media.
【译文】
在成为记者之前我已经关注中国很久了，我对中国的语言、文学、历史和政治充满热情，也是我开始工作前理论研究的内容。作为现代中国政治的关注者，在我30年的职业生涯中几乎找不到和《人民日报》一样重要的教科书，这份报纸可谓是中共的党报。
它是世界上最大的报纸之一，拥有300－400万的发行量。由于和高级共产党领导人的直接关系，《人民日报》长期以来一直是官方政策变动的发布（揣摩）平台。
我于1991－1994年间被任命为路透社中国地区首席执行官，每天雷打不动第一件做的事情就是从头到尾把这份报纸研究一遍，力图从文章、社论，词语的使用包括图片的选择、摆放的位置等等线索里发现点什么。
从1948年报纸创刊以来这就是记者学者们的研究习惯，它的创办时间甚至比中华人民共和国正式成立还早一年。
即使是到了今天，关注研究中国的人和记者仍然相信绝不会有所谓“无意”的信息出现在该报纸上。
所以不难想像当发现自己的脸出现在今天报纸的第17版（一个关于路透社奥运报道的采访），我该有多吃惊！
这种介绍要放在过去可是意味着我被高层“瞄”上了——而如今，它不过让人们看到中国对待国外媒体的态度发生了怎样的变化。

Congrats!
YES, China changes a lot.
note that you are in the 17th page of the paper, so you will be the candidate of the central committee if you appeared in the front page, hehe.
I am a Beijinger, we welcome all of you, except the guys hostile to us with a prejudiced eye.

恭喜！是的，中国发生了很多变化。不过你是出现在第17版而已，假如你出现在了头版，那你就是中央委员会的候选人啦，呵呵。我是北京人，欢迎你们，那些带着偏见眼睛的“敌人”除外。
