"For Jiang Xiaojuan, the female police officer who breast-fed quake 
orphans, the earthquake was not only a devastating natural disaster, it 
was also a turning-point for her career; she was recently promoted to 
vice commissar of police in Jiangyou City. While there is little doubt 
that Jiang should be praised for what she did, there is still a question 
of whether this action should be a basis for promotion in the police force.

Jiang's picture is on the front page of today's /Wuhan Morning Post/. In 
a striking contrast, the newspaper published her picture next to another 
quake celebrity, Fan Meizhong. Fan was a high school teacher, and when 
the quake hit, he ran for his life leaving his students behind in the 
classroom. His blog post attempting to justify his self-preserving 
behaviour in the earthquake drew national condemnation and earned him 
the title "Runner Fan". Under the picture, the caption reads: In the 
face of disaster, moral performances are as different as sky and the 
earth; after the disaster, the society knows who to love and to hate.

The newspaper says that the local education bureau has disqualified Fan 
from teaching and fired him from the high school where he used to teach."

There are links to the 'controversy' in Chinese newspapers.
