Outsourcing US jobs in journalism

My contribution to the Poynter weblog, a copy of my earlier story on Maria Trombly's journalistic venture in Shanghai, is causing a bit of consternation, at least on the mailing list, it has not made its way yet to the weblog.
Good US jobs are leaving for China, is the complaint that was earlier limited to the manufacturing sector, but is now expanding to the service sector too. I have just been adding my bit to the discussion by telling that some of my Chinese friends really enjoy having those US jobs. That is of course a rather mean way to manipulate a fair discussion, but at least you get a bit of discussion in that way.
