Homework - Newspaper Article

Here is the link to an article I found from the New York Times:
http://www.nytimes.com/2009/04/24/world/asia/24jackie.html?ref=world

This article is about comments made by the actor Jackie Chan about Chinese people. Although Jackie Chan is from Hong Kong, he stated that, "“Chinese need to be controlled”. This caused many people from all over China and Taiwan to speak out against him. A Chinese professor is organizing a boycott of Jackie Chan's concert in Beijing on May 1st.
