Reuters reports that Wu Hao, a Chinese film maker and blogger and now a U.S resident, has been freed after a months-long imprisonment in China. This case has been one of the clearest examples of the Chinese regime’s loathing of truly free speech, and his release is good news.
Kudos to all those who raised a ruckus. A special cheer for my colleagues and friends at Global Voices, for whom Wu’s cause has been especially important, but most of all to his sister, Nina, who has been tireless in her work to get him freed.
