Google News censorship in action

Wu Xianghu, a Chinese newspaper editor, has died from his injuries after Chinese traffic police "beat him up for an expose about exorbitant electric bicycle licence fees."

Keep up the good work, Google! We thank you on behalf of the billion+ Chinese people who have no idea this is even an issue.
