A pocket guide has been released for reporters
traveling to China to cover the Beijing Olympics.
The Reporters Guide to Covering the Beijing
Olympics addresses how to report in a largely
closed country with particular attention to the
hazards facing Chinese sources and news
assistants.

The guide spells out both the rights of foreign
journalists in particular under the Chinese
government's temporary regulations for foreign
journalists and the risks they or their Chinese
contacts may face. It also contains an appendix
that lists useful numbers and Web sites as well
as a bilingual (English/Chinese) version of the
temporary regulations.
