China has revoked the press credentials of 3 Wall Street Journal reporters over a headline for an opinion column as the Chinese government says it’s racist and slanderous. The headline had referred to the current virus outbreak in China calling the country the “Real Sick Man of Asia.” The expulsions came since the Journal turned down demands to “make an official apology and hold the persons involved accountable.”
