On January 7, "Southern Weekly News Ethics Committee" posted a public statement at several social medias, pointing the finger to chief editor Huang Can and standing vice chief editor Wu Xiaofeng, blaming them acting against normal procedure under pressures from higher authority. The statement made no mention of Tuo Zhen. Some of the "Southern Weekly" staffs, including Zhang Hua (张华), Zhu Zhaoxin (褚朝新), and Chao Getu (朝格图), went on strike. Hong Kong broadcasting station TVB confirmed that the economy department of "Southern Weekly" was also on strike.
