I'm horrified that the Chinese government has sentenced my old friend Dong Yuyu, a distinguished Chinese journalist, to prison for seven years. Good to see the United States and @USAmbChina speaking up about this travesty. nytimes.com/2024/11/30/us/po…

Respected journalist and Nieman alum Dong Yuyu has been sentenced to seven years in prison in China. Nieman curator @AMLwhere: "We stand with many in hoping for a speedy reversal of this harsh decision so he may return to his family as soon as possible.” nieman.harvard.edu/dong-yuyu…

The power and beauty of this @dsallentess resignation letter. What a loss. “Independence has been lost with this decision, not gained. I depart because I treasured that independence.”
