China Censorship: Dalian Protests Erased From Social Networking Media

Blog posts began appearing on Sunday on Chinese social media sites most notably Sina Microblog Weibo saying that a mass demonstration was happening in the northern city of Dalian, Liaoning Province to oppose a chemical plant that has been placed near residential areas.

Blog posts were quickly controlled and now all related material is being scrubbed  from the Internet. While censorship of overt of references and images of the protests themselves is plainly dampening the social media impact, anger over the chemical project is still quite visible with many users posting Get Out Fujia PX messages.
