From Shanghaiist:

Earlier today, CNN anchor and Beijing correspondent John Vause was filming in Tiananmen Square, Beijing when he suddenly encountered a man holding an umbrella who won’t step away from his cameraman’s lens. Maybe it’s the matching umbrella and pants, but this goes down in our book as the silliest censorship effort ever.

Come on China.  This is just straight up embarrassing.  If you’re going to exercise some government holier-than-thou power, at least do it in respectable uniforms.  Did you really think, “Oh, if we have plainclothes cops with umbrellas, maybe the rest of the world will just think our citizens are rude instead of our embarrassment of a government flopping around like a dying fish on the world stage”?  Probably not.  That thought is FAR too advanced for your little communistic minds.
