organizations such as- t the n. b. a.'s the basketball is. that enough to speak up in favor or in support of hong kong's protest that's right the started last friday but it's it there have been various other examples since so you could talk of a trend really. for the houston rockets at their general manager this is possible nba darryl moderate he expressed support for the hong kong protestors. the trees in which he expressed thoughts what was quickly deleted. he drew the ire of chinese businesses of the chinese consulate in houston there was this huge pressure. on that for him to circle back on his words and a he ended up in the last twentyty four hohours apologizig essentially i did not intend to my tweet to cause any offense. to rockets fans and friends of mine in china. you can be pretty sure that that was motivated by pressure. from i suppose the business aspects of the nba and the fact that there could be consequences are than. at a because of his support for the hong kong protestors a lot of people commenting on his apology saying. i'm from

mainland china and i'm not thought much brainwashed i wantt to thank you for your support to free speech in hong kong citizens. as you want rockets are the best other saying don't apologize for speaking out about what is right so that's one incidents that. got a lot of attention i and actually put me back fired on. chinese interests in some respects are in terms of public diplomacy and their image if they're trying to kind of. manage the message it didn't work out so well you you could you could you could argue. then you would south park. at which most south park that's a jericho show in kilkenny. indeed okay misli shock toneded. and irreverent they mocked china got censored and then they mock china s some more and even picked up on. at what happened with him yet like the nba we welcome. chinese conservator homes and into our hearts we to love money more than frereom and democracy. probably not so since you're there so i had a layer irony that's it so i think between nba on south park and you know it it was already looking pretty at. not so good in terms of managing the message this is

ryan. hotel patrick who writes for the la times on what's happening in hong kong. china has really overstepped this time thanks to their stunning pettiness. with the nba inside parks. episode regarding china the issue of exported chinese censorship is impossible to the national conversation. in the u. s. and- beyond i think it's fair to say. mark so tell me even joked about whether or not. at that the chinese football association. props are hoping fifa will insult to china. i like the nba so that they can righteously to care that they refused to open the world cup. context china's not simple teams himself. i thought was a he this is a have ryan concentric translating it. a quick. on on. from eight in chinese. the local not far i think star efforts to. manage the message i once hosted a debate program here for fun city full about china. organizing the two thousand eight olympics. and the whether they should do it and- whether it was right he should be they could be human rights and the ambassador in paris for china. run from twenty four order that i'd be psyched. while they get so that i see is that my

employees to bonnie two. of the sea in the name of journalistic integrity but china has previous on actually trying to different get people dismissed all force things because of things that they don't like serbia. well maybe a couple fair of china realllly attemptig to manage the message on and encouraging censorship of one kind or another if you like. here it's a form of self censorship this is it and other example. lizards mark no i didn't know much about them on soul at today but it's- activision blizzard it's a professional gaming. i first they ha and a card game that you can play online you can win a lot of money with it as well if you want. and one particular player his his username is a blitz. sean and here he is a he he basically. hide it because he spoke i was on taiwanese media. i'm about having won some leg of this competition on on the gaming website. in each he used his position if you like. as a star of over and activision blizzard's hearthstone. i had to draw attentioion to his s support t r

the hong konong protests. i if e did. and a blizzard. and for a year and a suspended all his earnings from the gaming at that particular game for one year so. they they they claims that he was going against to the terms and of use all of that. and the off the of the of the of the game but basically contravening the rules in speaking about things would offend others. boats at you could argue that sam it's a form of self self centered self censorship i in this case because i don't do button is others were necessary at reaching out just yet. in any case and a a doctor w who also n awful to chriss criticism people supupporting him first of all for having taken not statan. thank you applets john for recovering reiterating liberation calm in front of taiwanese gamers i and others saying that there is nothing wrong to susupport the fight for democracy. respect its charms brave act not one final example mark this image of the aftermath of. the tiananmen square massacre was taken off reddish by moderators at. in

the last twelve hours or so now it got created such a powerful and it that's a people saying well it does not able to experience reports for writers the foform. and some comments going up saying well i can't wait to read to next month's transparency report when you can explain why picture the chinese of chinese moultrie. vehicles with was removed. all of this in the context of the conversation about something uncommon. chinese all. authoritarian rule and what not. didn't restoring dot tenements where image. after accusations of. censorship see can exceed you can see the extent to which- pressure. jiang directly or indirectly is creating situations of. censorship of our- peoplee you know as not speaking their genuine faults are indeed cases of self censorship. so certainly the reach of beijing in terms of try to manage that message. is quite advanced but perhaps not firing in some respects in terms of the nt brass going back to the original the nba standing by the houston rockets
