Chinese TV recognises Times man in documentary

Over the next few weeks China's main broadcaster will screen almost four hours of a documentary about the remarkable Australian journalist and adventurer George Ernest Morrison, who was The Times's Peking correspondent for 15 years from 1897. Known as Chinese Morrison, he backed its 1911 republican revolutionaries and later became a political adviser to the Chinese government. One of Beijing's major streets was once named after Morrison, until it was renamed WangFuJing Street. (Via OhMyNews)
