My comment:
(a) "此前，中国社科院副研究员王国乡发帖称，芮成钢涉间谍案，不是一般的严重，可能面临死刑。"

The only posting I can find--and THE one cited by VOA, because other news reports quote the 王国乡's posting, making it possible to identify it--is as follows.

王国乡 has deleted it, from his Sina Weibo. Yet Google keeps a cache:

(b)
(i) "香港明报星期四报道说，尽管王国乡没有进一步披露详情，但芮成钢可能与2010年中国国家主席习近平和前总理温家宝的家庭财产被披露有牵连。"

(ii) The preceding Mingpao report cites

(the first clause: “本港新出版時政雜誌《博訊》透露”)

The (ii) and (iii) have the SAME content (except slightly different titles). My guess is 博訊 雜誌 (as opposed to the website Boxun,com) is not published online at all (because I can not find the magazine online). Then on Aug 31 the magazine in Hong Kong published the report, which was republished in large measure by Apple Daily (HK), which Boxun.com in turn re-published.

(c) "国际记者联盟表示，该联盟反对记者违反职业操守，同时也坚决反对在没有证据的的情况下拘留记者。国际记者联盟敦促中国有关当局审查芮成钢和其他媒体从业人员的案子，并提供这些人的犯罪证据。"
