Things just go from bad to worse

Apparently, there is no end to Chinese tyranny. Across the country, shoppers are subjected to sonic torture as they go about their lawful business.

HOLY CARP!!!
from the CNN article
 
According to Hong Kong media, Chinese propaganda officials have ordered state-run media to erase any mentions of 47 celebrities who are believed to support the Hong Kong protests, including martial arts star Chow Yun Fat.
That's not how Mr. Chow is viewed by his Asian audience. While certainly a star, Mr. Chow is typically viewed as a versatile actor who have played many roles in many different genres, and is not typically pigeon-holed as a "martial arts star."

If you think that's egregious, they described Kenny G as a freaking jazz musician.

I wish they'd leave off the term music.
