If one was so inclined to, they could access any website depending on their technologies available to them. Perhaps journalists should have acquired the information they needed from these blocked websites before hand and knew the limitations of their accessiblity going in.

Saying that they still CANNOT access Amnesty International's website sounds more logical and intelligent than saying they NEED to access the Amnesty Internation website from inside China but they can't. I don't think the blockage of these websites is exactly new and little known news.
