  4. Revisionism Tokyo-style

    This month 75 years ago, the people of Nanking, China's ancient capital city, were in the midst of one of the worst atrocities in history, the infamous Rape of Nanking. The truth of what actually happened is at the center of a bitter dispute between China and Japan that continues to play out in present-day relations. Many Chinese see Japan's election last month of ultraconservative nationalist Shinzo Abe as prime minister as just the latest in a string of insults. And it was recently reported that Japan is considering rolling back its 1993 apology regarding &quot;comfort women," the thousands of women the Japanese army sexually enslaved during World War II.

  9. Nanjing, China - Permanent Jet Lag

    <span style=&quot;font-size: small;">Nanjing, China - A benefit of working the zombie morning news shift at WGN is that I never feel jet lagged whenever I travel internationally. Even though it took over 24 hours to get from O'Hare to my hotel in Nanjing, I feel the way I usually do - sleep deprived. I routinely wake up around one or two in the morning for work. And operating at such wacky hours makes you get used to constantly feeling out of whack.</span>

  11. 'Flowers of War' goes truly global

    In a globalized age, Chinese and American pop culture mix in unexpected ways. Taiwanese singers borrow from hip-hop and R&amp;B. Locked-out NBA players join mainland basketball teams. And Batman &mdash; or, at least, the man who plays him &mdash; is called upon to complete an unlikely mission: save scores of Nanjing women from brutal Japanese soldiers.
