CBC & Olympics
http://www.cbc.ca/radioshows/AS_IT_HAPP ... 0327.shtml
Interesting segment on todays "As It Happens" program on CBC up here regarding the restrictions that are already being felt by western media before they've even set food in Beijing for the Olympics, as well as the (hardly surprising) unwillingness of the Chinese government to provide guidelines.
(segment should be accessible in WMV format by clicking "Listen to Part 1 of As It Happens", but if you have ITunes, you can also get it via the show's free podcast there.
