The design of the column is very similar to other websites, but it is more dedicate in detail, such as the providing of adjust for font sizes, catering for people from different age groups, but the only trouble is that within all kinds of ads, the whole website seems a little bit mess. And the links for Facebook and twitter and other personal profile websites seemed a necessity of every news websites, in a repetitive format.

The story is talking about Beijing police have arrested four men, including a professor, over a hammer attack on China's top "science cop", a whistle-blower famed for exposing religious fakes, academic charlatans and bogus researchers. The story starts with an attack to the main character of this news and then extracts the low-down behind this attack; it is a very dramatic and appealing opening. A close up photo of fangzhouzi and the description of his website give a direct idea about who the person is and his story. China has a very complicated journalism environment, which is because of its state’s basic political and cultural condition. What fang are doing can be observed as a hero- to disclose the fraud in academic circles. The news angle is very representative and meaningful.

The story is arranged systematic orderly, telling the whole story with the interviews of the policemen and the person involved and the ending is very critical and informative.
