《環球時報》總編胡錫進這個月25號在《新浪》微博上「發聲」，引髮網友大量跟貼，被所謂「亂磚」死拍！為什麼這麼多中國人要對《環球時報》總編群起而攻之呢？《環球時報》又是一份什麼樣的報紙？一起來看看。
在《新浪》微博上，《環球時報》總編胡錫進開通了帳號。他表示「希望《環球時報》說真話，不迴避敏感問題，用我們所有報導的總和，展現複雜的世界和一個真實、複雜的中國」。沒想到，立刻招來了網友的圍攻痛斥。
眾多網友因為《環球時報》的「虛假報導」而氣憤。名為「ddrose平平」的網友揭露說，「買過一期《環球時報》，因為有德國的作者朋友為《環球時報》寫了一篇報導，結果被《環球》編輯移花接木，乾坤大挪移一番，署名的朋友非常生氣。」
而網名「月黑之夜」分析說：除了從外國媒體上拼湊些東西捕風捉影，意淫中國強大、煽動民族主義、妖魔化美國之外，「環球屎報」還有什麼？另一名網友「雨後春瞬」指出，「國內傳媒都爛成這樣了，為什麼大家看見《環球時報》就人人喊打？因為你們是爛報裡的戰鬥機！」
《環球時報》是《人民日報》屬下的媒體，創刊於1993年，是大陸發行量最大的日報之一，《環球時報》因為用輿論方式維護中共統治，而引起廣泛民憤。
2月21號，《環球時報》發表社評《配合社會治理，知識份子應帶頭》，文章指責能獨立思考、針砭時弊的大陸知識份子「不愛國」，要他們「應該旗幟鮮明的為維護社會穩定貢獻自己的力量」。與中共當局近年來的紅頭文件遙相呼應。
對於近來在阿拉伯世界方興未艾的民主革命，《環球時報》英語版以「顏色革命不會帶來真正的民主」為題，把埃及民眾為爭取自由民主和人權的努力說成是一場「動亂」。和89年六四學生運動被屠殺後的中共口徑一致。
有網友給胡錫進留言說，《環球時報》中文版，粉飾太平，煽動民族主義，製造內部和諧、外部危機的假象，愚弄國民。而《環球時報》英文版，以揭露社會陰暗面，針砭時弊，製造「獨立輿論監督」的假象來愚弄國際。
化名為「氣定爺」的網友面對胡錫進的行為指出，「你也只是這個腐朽國家機器上的一顆螺絲，終將淹沒在民主自由的歷史浪潮裡。」
Chief-in-Editor of Official Media Denounced at Blogs
Hu Xijin, editor-in-chief of Global Times, posted a blog on sina.com on Feb 25 and received many posts of criticism. Why did so many people come to attack him?
What kind of newspaper is it? Let』s take a look.
Editor-in-chief of Global Times Hu Xijin opened an account at sina.com. He expressed 「hopes for Global Times to speak truth and not avoid any sensitive topics.」「Let our reports display the complexity of the world and a true and sophisticated China.」 Instantly it provoked netizens』 attack and accusation.
Many netizens are angry with its false reports.Internet user 「ddrose Pingping」 said, 「I bought one issue of Global Times, because a German friend wrote a report for them. The report, however, was cut and edited from beginning to end. The friend was very angry.」
Netizen 「The Night of Dark」 analyzed: What else does Global Times have
except that it pieces together articles from overseas media to indicate China』s power, to incite nationalism, and to demonize America? Another netizen 「Spring After the Rain」 said, 「Chinese media has rotten to such an extent. Why does everyone attack Global Times? Because you are pilots in the rotten newspapers.」
Global Times is affiliated with People』s Daily. It was founded in 1993 and is one of the most widely distributed newspapers in China. It elicits a lot of anger due to its propaganda.
On Feb 21, Global Times published an editorial titled 「Intellectuals Shall Take Lead in Support of Society Control,」 reprimanding scholars with independent thinking as unpatriotic and demanded them to 「clearly show their stands and
contribute their bits to maintain social order.」 It corresponds with the tone of CCP』s official files.
Regarding democratic revolution in the Arabic world, Global Times English version published an article, 「Color Revolutions Will Not Bring Real Democracy,」
describing Egyptians』 efforts for freedom, democracy, and human rights as 「riots.」 Again it is in the same tone as that of defending the Tiananmen massacre.
Netizens leave such comments to Hu Xijin: Global Times Chinese version creates false image of internal peace and external crisis, inciting nationalism to fool Chinese people while its English version exposes dark side of society and points out problems, to create a false image of 「independent media watchdog」 to fool the world.
One web post said to Hu Xijin, 「You are only a screw in the corrupted state machine and will eventually be drowned in the historical wave of democracy and freedom.」
