I wish more people knew about that. From Wikipedia’s page on the magazine:

Isaac Stone Fish wrote in the Washington Post, “Since that purchase, there have been several instances of editorial meddling on stories involving China that raise questions about Forbes magazine’s commitment to editorial independence.”

"Forbes was sold to a Hong Kong company and is now controlled by the Chi-coms."

Indeed.

After the "Hong Kong" based group bought Forbes back in 2014, shortly thereafter they canned writers Gordon Chang and Claudia Rosett who were often critical of China. [1]. Just one example of their censorship.
