media - Editors rebel against SCMP chief editor

Over eighty newsroom staffers of the South China Morning Post have signed a petition against their editor Mark Clifford. Clifford fired two editors after they made an inhouse spoof of the paper for a colleague, writes Asia Sentinel (h/t to Danwei).
Clifford tries to do what even the Chinese censor cannot do: stop spoofing. Danwei:
If Clifford loses his job at the SCMP, perhaps SARFT will offer him a job heading up an anti-online-spoof task force. There's always room for another hack with no sense of humor in China's media regulatory bodies.
