Chinese News Station sets Shuttle Launch to "America the Beautiful"
The Chinese State Television recorded the launching of a new Chinese satellite to orbit, however the recording was accompanied by the American song "America the Beautiful". This song, considered a classic American song, prompted Chinese confusion and concern, citing the television station must have made a mistake. The one minute highlight was accompanied by music, not the lyrics. This is a very embarrassing incident for the Chinese media, as China is trying to match American power in space, and down on Earth as well. For the Chinese people, this was a humiliation; we will have to see if anything will happen to the state-run media.
