南方周末
At the night of January 5, "Southern Weekly" called an emergency enlarged meeting for members of the editorial board. Huang and Wu detailed what happened to the editorial staffs. Shortly after the meeting, the administrator of "Southern Weekly"'s official Weibo account was asked to hand over the password, which immediately made the editorial staffs start to negotiate with the leaders of Nanfang Media Group. Next morning, the heads of "Southern Weekly" met with Tuo Zhen. Tuo promised that a Great Purge won't happen. Nevertheless at night, Wu Wei (吴蔚), administrator of the official Weibo account was forced to hand in the password, and soon after the official Weibo posted a "clarification", passing the blame to the editors. Meanwhile, Huang Can, chief editor of "Southern Weekly" took the responsibility of the incident, saying Tuo has nothing with the incident.
