China's government sometimes reminds me of a big US corporation. Basically, the PR department is furious that an important interview didn't go through them. There's no mention of any content that would harm China's interests (other than maybe the "open blank window" bit).
I wonder if this editor knew it would be a career-ending move, and figured it was worth it.

As far as I can tell they didn't want anything he said to not go through the government's filters; sure looks like they're upset here because the paper highlighted this censorship.
