Mark Knowler with KFI

They're probably targeting known associates of Bill Handel. And who can blame them?

It’s being reported that there is some kind of disagreement, and that the reporter on the aircraft is calling out on his cellular phone, stating no one is being allowed off the aircraft.

The Chinese don't want to let the press in because they are far too Marxist for the Chinese.

I doubt this will get much airplay as reporters never like to report on themselves . . .

I really dont like the Chicoms but I have to admire their zero tolerance approach with people they dont like.

I thought the aircraft landed earlier this morning. Heard Bush this am give China heck about religion and freedom of speech. China said shove it, I think? This will be an interesting couple of weeks.

Their reporter has stated no one is being allowed off the White House press plane...The reporter is on board the aircraft and he's with KFI 1070 Los Angeles, using a cell phone.

The station broke into their regular news to report this about 5 minutes ago.

Press cannot deplane? Good, probably the best thing to happen to China since the Flying Tigers.
