Yu Li (于力), better known by his pen name Sima Nan (Chinese: 司马南; born 22 June 1956), is a Chinese television pundit, social commentator, and journalist. In the early 21st century, he is well known for his staunch support of Chinese Communist Party (CCP) stances[1] and nationalistic, anti-American sentiments.[2] In the late 1990s, he was mostly known for his criticism of pseudoscience and supernatural phenomena, especially his opposition to what he called qigong-related fraud.
