‘Dr Li Wenliang dead’ was the most searched topic on Weibo, with over 1 billion views and over 1.1 million comments.
Chinese media outlets then said Li was under “emergency treatment”, before finally announcing his death at about 3am Friday. “Some irregularities in handling the news of Li’s death is perceived as politically motivated,” Fu said. “The police reprimanded whistleblower according to regulations, news anchor just reported according to the manuscript, and social media operators just deleted posts… based on directives from above,” said a post that has been taken down, according to Weiboscope, a University of Hong Kong project tracking censored Weibo comments.Weibo users also posted screenshots of apparently leaked “reporting instructions” Thursday night that appears to instruct local journalists to play down Li’s death.
