Wha?

Did anyone else see The National tonight?

There's something really unsettling about the way they handled the Chinese police in Scott Russell's fluff story. "Oh, we're going to try running in Beijing! Oh no, it appears that we've attracted the attention of the police! No worries, our guide helped us!"

Ummmm.

Okay, you got jumped by police because you were going on a run. Isn't that a little unsettling?! Furthermore, you push it off as a joke?! Oh, those wacky Beijing cops! What misadventures well they get into next?

Well, I'm baffled. His poor guide. Scott was making an ass of himself.
