Dictators Can't Stand Sarcasm

The Chinese government is having a cow over a reporter's eyeroll at a news conference. They've issued orders banning all mention of it.

Liang Xiangyi, the reporter who launched that epic eyeroll, has undoubtedly been fired and will soon collect the 7.62mm retirement package for people that displease the regime.

It's also a little interesting that there is an American media company that functions as a propaganda outlet for the Chinese state.
