Locals: Falun Gong Hijacks China City's
TV Airwaves

BEIJING (Reuters) - Defiant members of the banned Falun
Gong (news
- web sites) spiritual group hijacked state television
in a northeastern
Chinese city to show a film protesting a government
crackdown on their
faith, locals said on Thursday.
Reports of the television protest,
one of Falun
Gong's most audacious, emerged as
China
detained seven foreign adherents on
Tiananmen Square for protesting
Beijing's
campaign against the group it calls
an evil cult.
State television broadcasts in
Changchun were
interrupted on Tuesday evening by
footage of
Falun Gong's U.S.-based leader Li
Hongzhi
and a film accusing the government of
staging a
self-immolation of alleged adherents in Tiananmen Square
last year,
locals said.
"There was a brief blackout and then there was Li
Hongzhi speaking,
banners saying Falun Dafa is good,' and there was a news
analysis
about the Tiananmen Square self-immolation incident
which indicated
that it was planted by the government," a television
viewer in Changchun
told Reuters.
The footage lasted about 50 minutes before normal state
television
programming resumed, he said.
It was one of the most daring protests by Falun Gong,
whose once
regular demonstrations in Tiananmen Square have petered
out in the last
year since the government arrested group leaders and
sent thousands of
followers to "re-education" camps.
