The new part is the date: they now have moved it back from approximately 150-200 thousand yars ago to 80,000! This is PC balderdash!
The Homo erectus of China (Peking Man) of 400,000 years ago had specific dental and cranial traits that are unique to present-day Asians.
Explain that, PC-liars.

What is it about the thought of a common and recent African ancestor, that seems to bother you so much?

Homo erectus of China (Peking Man) of 400,000 years ago Is it possible that Homo erectus evolved at several places on earth in stages? The Peking Man would have evolved first into modern man, others evolved later. Would the evolutes all have the same DNA? That hypothesis is popular in China.

Shut up Pharmboy!
These embarassing scientific factoids of yours could cost me and my family our share of the Reparations money.

I bet H. erectus was very, very good at math...

If I understand NPR correctly, (a big IF) the theory is that these early humanoids (including the Neanderthals) represent an evolutionary dead end, they have left no present day descendants. So the theory is at consistent, at least.
Personally, I'll keep an open mind.
