What's problematic here?[edit]

This seems to be the contentious paragraph:

In August 2015, The Globe and Mail reported an editor-in-chief of a Chinese-language newspaper says she was forced out of her job for publishing a column that criticized the conduct of Ontario cabinet minister Michael Chan. In a statement released to The Globe and Mail, the former editor of the Chinese Canadian Post, Helen Wang, said she was ousted after the Toronto-based periodical received complaints from the Chinese consulate in Toronto and pro-Beijing groups that back the minister.^[1]

Can the editor who is removing this information please explain why this paragraph is a violation of content policies? It seems that it's information in the public interest, and the Globe and Mail is certainly a reliable source. I've been unable to check whether this is an accurate reflection of the article's content, though, since it's paywalled.TheBlueCanoe 18:38, 8 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
