China censors Obama's reference to communism
Another widely viewed portal, Netease, cut the communism paragraph in its entirety, prompting one Canada-based Chinese to post it in English in the comments section, with the remark "Hahaha, communism and fascism".
The paragraph mentioning dissent was included in the Netease version, and was widely praised by Chinese posting comments.
The full speech appeared on the website of Phoenix TV, a Hong Kong-based station that is branding its website as a source for news, and in English on the China Daily state newspaper website.
