"fifty-cents"

Communist Chinese online commentators recruited by various Communist state
agencies are responsible for guiding Internet users toward the
authority-endorsed opinions on important issues. They are referred to as the
"Internet political workers," and are paid half a yuan (US$0.08) per message
they write. Internet users refer to these commentators-in-disguise as
"fifty-cents."

That some enterprising shortwave enthusiast starts up
a new moderated newsgroup on shortwave
radio so that all this off-topic political dross can be
banned/deleted.

I'd do it, but I just don't have the knowledge.
I'm sure some of you have.
