I'm not sure this is the right forum to encourage or bait Zheng to trash or criticize or take a stance on something that she will obviously suffer severe reprecussion from.

This is a remarkable remarkable achievement for her and I think like others, they should just let her enjoy the day.....and challenge her on the Chinese Federation another time at like say....when she emigrates to the United States and is no longer, nor is her family no longer in any danger.

I don't think that we should judge those in Zheng's postion for not speaking handily about things like the oppressive Chinese Federation when she and her family may be in danger or suffer repercussions

While the abuses that the Chinese athletes suffer should be brought to light....we don't get to pick or chose who, when and where. We should let the athletes choose for themselves and respect those who choose tradition, family and their oppresive regimes over speaking out

The moderator did a good job of moving things along.....and the interviewer....ahhhh typical interviewer!

But as for me....I'm dismayed that Zheng won't be able to keep her earnings

She rightfully deserves every bit of them and......if the Chnese government can afford to build all those skyscrappers and new buildings and host the 2008 olympics...then they can take care of those devastated people and let Zheng keep her earnings. They are going to come under heavy heavy criticism from the international community if Zheng doesn't get to keep her earnings....
