The Southern Metropolis Daily reprimanded cartoonist Kuang Biao in August for his depiction of journalist Chang Ping bound in an ominous stranglehold: According to the China Media Project<\/a>, Chang has recently been barred from writing for Southern Weekend and Southern Metropolis Daily. Chang has previously served as editor of the Southern Metropolis Daily and the Bund Magazine. In 2008 he published a controversial article titled \u201cTibet: nationalist sentiment and the truth\u201d for which he faced an online attack from netizens<\/a>. In a document from the Southern Metropolis Daily editorial committee, which is being circulated online, Kuang is criticized, fined and demoted for his portrayal of Chang\u2019s dilemma.
