Great Regulars: China's state media called on Wednesday

for closer cooperation with the United States in the war on terror as a graduate student from Shenyang was named among those killed in Monday's Boston Marathon bombing.

Comprehensive reporting on the incident by state media has also prompted Chinese journalists to demand similar blanket coverage of issues at home.

Boston University graduate student Lu Lingzi was killed on Monday along with Martin Richard, 8, and Krystle Campbell, 29, her father and Chinese state media confirmed, sparking thousands of condolence messages on the microblogging site Sina Weibo.
