the last two paragraphs:

"有海外中文媒體就將這次事件，與習近平近日提出「官媒姓黨」以及清洗文宣系統所引起的反彈一起聯想。

"早前廣東《南方都市報》深圳版頭版頭條對「媒體姓黨」報道時，卻因在其下刊登袁庚海葬的報道，並配上「魂歸大海」的標題，被當局認為會引起讀者不恰當聯想，觸犯政治禁忌，該報一名編輯被開除，高層及涉事編輯均被處分。

My comment:
(a) It is 3:30 pm EDT, Monday, Mar 14, 2016. BBC times this report "一小時前," and Google the Mingpao report "18 hours ago."
(b) There is no need to read the rest of BBC report, because, other than these two (last) paragraphs, the BBC report is entirely based on the Mingpao report.
(c) I see nothing grave, mainly because I am not superstitious.
