JoD coeditor @WilliamJDobson: "No one should take for granted the reporting that forms the spine of this book.... @joshchin and @lizalinwsj are fair and unflinching, and they rest their insights on the facts they gathered."

After changing my profile picture on Douyin, the Chinese cousin of TikTok, to the cover of "Surveillance State," a book co-written w/@joshchin. It took the app less than 5 mins to revert to my old profile photo. I concluded: Tencent & ByteDance's censorship is the most stringent.
Liza Lin@lizalinwsj
1/ After @akanakis pointed out that the cover of Surveillance State was censored on Wechat, I quickly changed the profile pictures on my Wechat, Weibo, Zhihu, Taobao account to see what happened. After a few mins, our book cover was censored on Wechat and stayed up on the rest.

#讣告 《纽约时报》亚洲副主编卡洛斯·特哈达于周五在首尔一家医院去世，享年49岁。
特哈达深度参与了时报获得普利策奖的全球新冠疫情报道。他在中国生活多年，以娴熟的编辑手法、富有感染力的笑声而闻名，也是“严厉并快乐地编辑”这一格言的实践者。

Carlos and his wife Nora and I and Patrick Barta and David Blend and a few others used to do a monthly mixed CD club. I remember at a Sharon Jones concert in Brooklyn Nora and Carlos handed out their CD. It was called “Songs that make you wish you were a chick.” Need to find it.

Thanks, @JChengWSJ, and to many of you who have reached out in the last week. Really helps. Below is my last Beijing-datelined @WSJ “leder,” on a topic that will continue to define China’s economy for many years to come. Thank you for reading.

Greetings from @WSJ China bureau. Fresh out the oven, a big read from the incomparable @Lingling_Wei on how Xi Jinping is leaning on the state sector more than ever during the coronavirus pandemic—hastening China's retreat from a market-oriented economy. wsj.com/articles/china…

@joshchin @tombschrader She is one of the best reporters to have covered modern China. The loss of her astute economic and financial coverage, like the loss of other insightful journalism by US reporters, sets back not only the world's understanding of China but China's own true understanding of itself.
