ONE HOUR. She is an EXCRUTIATINGLY POOR journalist.
Not to mention that she spends 99% of the time being obtuse, obnoxious, steamroll, offering anecdotal *evidence*, interrupting and being dismissive.
She was basically mansplaining lmfao. Unbelievable. She has way more in common with those 93 assholes sitting in senior Corp positions than she realizes.

Existing research on the extensive Chinese censorship organization uses observational methods with well-known limitations. We conducted the first large-scale experimental study of censorship by creating accounts on numerous social media sites, randomly submitting different texts, and observing from a worldwide network of computers which texts were censored and which were not. We also supplemented interviews with confidential sources by creating our own social media site, contracting with Chinese firms to install the same censoring technologies as existing sites, and—with their software, documentation, and even customer support—reverse-engineering how it all works. Our results offer rigorous support for the recent hypothesis that criticisms of the state, its leaders, and their policies are published, whereas posts about real-world events with collective action potential are censored.
This will be my Friday night read paired with a glass of wine and a bone to pick.
