Fan Bingbing violates grammar rules (1)

Excuse me, but this is ridiculous. Of course we already know, that Fan Bingbing’s police handlers would have vetted and approved every sentence, every comma. Or, they wrote the whole thing! This is what typically goes on, when somebody is disappeared. See my writings on this:

Confessions Made in China, http://www.chinoiresie.info/confessions-made-in-china/
The Return of the Show Trial: China’s Televised “Confessions,” http://apjjf.org/2017/13/Fiskesjo.html

So, the high school teachers that supposedly complained about her confessional statement’s grammar, should be ashamed!

Also, worse, for the South China Morning Post not to point this out, is gross. It’s almost as stomach-turning as when they disgracefully went along with the pretense of the “interview” with Gui Minhai this last February, shedding whatever press ethics and reputation they still had [see: https://twitter.com/Magnus_Fiskesjo/status/964372116798713856 ] — but hey, of course they now are controlled directly by China, through their owners Alibaba, and their paper’s toeing the Party line was demonstrated both then, and again now. The SCMP isn’t a newspaper any more, I would say. Definitely not a trusted source of any news. Definitely, you will need bags and bags of salt to add, to whatever they put out.
