This story appeared in Nanfang Daily on June 22, 2005. On the day before, Nanfang Daily published an article about Dagang Town, Panyu City, Guangdong Province. The story was about how 1,147 villagers filed a joint complaint to the National Land Administration Department to demand the return of 19 hectares of land that was requisitioned by the town government and real estate development corporation. The villagers were aware that the most influential newspaper in the province was doing a report on their vital interests and was looking forward to read the coverage.

On the day of publication, a number of villagers showed up at 6am to wait at the newsstand to buy the newspapers. The newspapers arrived at 8am. When the villagers got their copies, they went through the whole newspaper and found nothing. They were quite disappointed.

Was the story pulled? No. It was indeed published.

A villager then noticed that pages A35 and A36 were missing in his copy.  Then all the villagers realized that those pages were missing in their copies as well.
