    SUMMARY/EXCERPT:

    China Digital Times digs through internet archives to find that China has changed old records, rewriting the evidence of He Kexin’s age.

    “Translated caption: The thirteen-year-old He Kexin, from Wuhan, met opponent Yang Yilin, who is on the National Team. Amid cheers from her hometown audience, the young girl excellently executed the full set of moves in the finals, and just beat out Yang Yilin, who already had high scores. …
    While coach Lu Shanzhen was so confident about the online records of He Kexin’s age, informtion discovered by Chinese bloggers may surprise her. …
    EXHIBIT B: The same China Daily article dated May 23, 2008 titled ‘Uneven-bars queen the new star in town’ about He Kexin. This is the version currently available online. As you can see, when compared to EXHIBIT A, everything is identical. Except for one little thing. The state-run newspaper has changed He’s age.”
