After a series of anti-TVB reports, or according to TVB “biased reports” from Next Media, TVB is battling back by blacklisting Next Media from all the station’s press conferences and promotional events.
TVB says Next Media has been inaccurately reporting on the free-TV license incident in an attempt to attack and smear the image of TVB. They feel it is important to defend their reputation by forbidding Next Media’s reporters from covering TVB events and interviewing TVB artists.
All of Next Media’s publications will be affected which include Apple Daily, Next Magazine, Sudden Weekly and FACE.
Apple Daily’s editor regrets TVB’s accusations and decision btu denies TVB’s accusations of false reporting, attacking and vilifying the station.
Hong Kong Journalists Association believes that TVb is tampering with press freedom and setting a bad precedent.
