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.

#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。

I know I don't tweet a lot, but I want to share a little bit about @CRTejada—an editor at the NYT, formerly of WSJ, a close friend and mentor—whom we tragically lost last week. 🧵

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.

In the shocking season finale of "Fat Leonard," the Navy protects its elite, China gets hold of dangerous sexual "kompromat," and my relationship with Leonard blows apart. Listen on @ApplePodcasts https://t.co/0wXdNddTOR

Bob, congrats on a great run—but why not make it an even 40? We’re going to miss you!

Excited to announce the launch of Project Brazen. Get in touch!

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.

[Marcus Brauchli @mbrauchli]

@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.
