China has a new record: They’ve arrested a two year old as a political prisoner. NY Times:

Mr. Hu, 34, and his wife, Zeng Jinyan, are human rights advocates who spent much of 2006 restricted to their apartment in a complex with the unlikely name of Bo Bo Freedom City. She blogged about life under detention, while he videotaped a documentary titled “Prisoner in Freedom City.” Their surreal existence seemed to reflect an official uncertainty about how, and whether, to shut them up. That ended on Dec. 27. Mr. Hu was dragged away on charges of subverting state power while his wife was bathing their newborn daughter, Qianci. Telephone and Internet connections to the apartment were severed. Mother and daughter are now under house arrest. Qianci, barely 2 months old, is probably the youngest political prisoner in China.

Will NBC bother to cover facts like these while airing their non-stop August Olympic coverage? Not likely. A quick search of NBCOlympics.com for “human rights abuse” produces no hits.
