Google News And China redux  
 
John Battelle's Searchblog carries an update on this story:

"Google made the decision to omit a small number of Chinese government banned sites (about eight) because to include them would create a damaged user interface experience. Google China users would see results and links, but be unable to click through to the actual pages, because China in fact filters those sites"

Better, but still not totally defensible.
