【新唐人2012年4月6日讯】由北京市委书记刘淇控制下的官媒《北京日报》，在胡锦涛出访外国期间，高调发表文章“总书记不能凌驾中央”，但文章被悄悄撤下后，4月5号《北京日报》又出现一篇“牢记胡锦涛总书记的嘱托”。有分析认为，《北京日报》在胡锦涛出访期间公开谈党的总书记并不是权利的最高机构，可以看出中共背后的高层内斗已经呈现摊牌的迹象。
3月31号，《北京日报》在显要位置开设“迎接十八大文萃”专栏，开栏第一篇就是这篇题为《我党最高领导人何时称"总书记"的》的文章。
文章说，从党的组织制度发展史来看，党内最高领导人的职务并非一开始就称“总书记”，而且，“总书记”也并非党的最高领导人的专称。
文章列举了中共历届党内最高领导人的职务演变过程，及“总书记”的职务由来之后，断然结论说：“我党一直重视强调和实行‘集体领导’﹔‘总书记’虽是党内最高领导职务，但并非党的最高领导机关。”
这篇文章发表后，《新华网》等权威党媒立即全文转载，在海内外引起广泛瞩目。4月4号，《北京日报》网路版撤下了文章。5号，《新华网》也删除转载。
时事评论家石涛分析，这篇文章得以出炉，跟中共高层主管宣传的江系人马李长春有关。
时事评论家石涛：“作为李长春来讲，他完全有理由这么做，因为周永康已经成为了矛盾的中心，那周永康完了，原来的江家帮就完了，所谓的‘新四人帮’的说法，就是周永康、李长春、吴邦国还有贾庆林。大家看到贾庆林在赖昌星被审的事情上，现在没有任何消息，但是，李长春会有可能在过去的几天里跟周永康联手，《北京日报》可以被他直接控制。”
石涛分析，李长春逼迫由北京市委书记刘淇控制下的《北京日报》发了这个消息，无意中就把刘淇拉了进来，给江家帮壮胆。
而《希望之声电台》特约评论员兰述表示，李长春掌管的宣传系统都对《北京日报》这篇文章做了转载，可以看出，江系在最后这场权斗中仍然不愿意输掉。
《希望之声电台》特约评论员兰述：“应该说是刘淇他手上有镇压法轮功的血债，他跟江系是跟的很紧的。那么现在江系和胡温斗争的焦点在周永康那个地方，那在这种情况之下呢，周永康的一个去留成为一个很关键的角色，成为这次斗争、胡温与江系之间斗争的一个风向标，在这种情况之下，很显然周永康目前是处于劣势的。”
兰述认为，随着中国社会各方面的矛盾和危机的表面化，胡温这一派如果不愿意为6.4和镇压法轮功承担责任的话，那么就必须有一部分人出来承担这个责任。

Beijing Daily Challenges Hu’s Authority
During President Hu Jintao’s foreign visit, Beijing Daily, under
the control of Beijing Party Secretary Liu Qi, published a high-
profile article, “The Party’s General Secretary Can not Override
the Central Committee,” which was removed shortly afterward.
April 5, Beijing Daily published another article “Remember
General Secretary Hu Jintao’s Exhortations.”
Critics believe that Beijing Daily’s open challenge of Hu’s
power hints at a showdown between fighting CCP factions.
Mar 31, Beijing Daily opened a special column on CCP’s 18th
National Assembly, which starts with the “Hu’s power” article.
The article says that CCP’s top leaders were not referred to
as General Secretary from the beginning, and that “General Secretary” does not only refer to the top leader of the Party.
The article introduces the development of CCP’s central
institutions of leadership, and the history of the General Secretary position.
It concludes that “Our Party has always emphasized ‘collective
leadership’; General Secretary is the Party’s top leading position, but not the Party’s top leading institution.”
This article was immediately cited in full by Xinhua News
Agency and other CCP mouthpieces, attracting attention worldwide.
April 4, Beijing Daily’s website removed the article, and Xinhua
followed suit on April 5.
Political Critic Shi Tao says this article’s publication was related
to Li Changchun, a Jiang faction official in charge of propaganda.
Political Critic Shi Tao: “It is completely reasonable for Li
Changchun to do so.
As Zhou Yongkang has become the focus of all conflicts,
his failure would mean the failure of the whole Jiang faction.
The so-called New Gang of Four of the Jiang faction includes
Zhou Yongkang, Li Changchun, Wu Bangguo, and Jia Qinglin.
We haven’t heard about Jia Qinglin regarding his involvement
in Lai Changxing’s case of smuggling and corruption, but
it is quite likely that Li Changchun has joined forces with
Zhou Yongkang. Beijing Daily may have fallen into his firm control.”
Shi Tao says Li Changchun forced Beijing Daily to publish
the article, which actively recruited Beijing Party Secretary Liu Qi to strengthen the Jiang faction.
Lan Shu, commentator at Sound of Hope Radio,
said the propaganda system controlled by Li Changchun
disseminated Beijing Daily’s article, exposing the Jiang faction’s
final struggle for power.
Lan Shu, commentator at Sound of Hope Radio: “It should
be noted that Liu Qi joined in the persecution of Falun Gong,
and went on to commit serious crimes.
This links him with the Jiang Faction.
Now the focus of Hu and Jiang’s power struggle is Zhou
Yongkang, who has played a pivotal role in the changing situation.
At present Zhou Yongkang is obviously at a disadvantage. ”
Lan said with the surfacing of all conflicts and crises in Chinese
society, some people must take responsibility for
the June Fourth massacre and the persecution of Falun Gong
if Hu and Wen are unwilling to be responsible.
