According to the Hong Kong Journalists Association, 58% of the journalists surveyed observed that press freedom had declined since the handover. This is very worrying. Real progress demands genuine feedback. It is in everyone's best interests to have a free press. No doubt self censorship is an increasing concern in Hong Kong.

In Guangzhou, residents complain that CCTVB is censored by local officials. Both Jade (Cantonese) and Pearl (English) Hong Kong broadcasts of news frequently cut to Hong Kong government public service announcements as soon as CCTVB starts reporting on something that China doesn't want Guangzhou viewers to see. Likewise when Phoenix TV network (凤凰台) has content that is deemed politically incorrect on its show 天天读报 (Summary of Press), Guangzhou viewers are instead treated to a still photo of Huangshan's 迎客松 (Welcoming Guests Pine).

Seriously is the news blocked or totally ignored by TVB? Hell no, I can totally feel the vigil through the TVB news that night, and not to mention I believe its the longest running piece of news that night as well. As a matter of fact, you bunch of hopeless idiots should seriously thank TVB for putting vigil in the 3rd time slot, as I and many others working class in Hong Kong dont always make it home at 6:30 sharp. This post is perhaps the worst load of BS bitching I have ever read in years. You know what, you should actually complain that the TVB news didn't dedicate the whole time slot 6:30 - 7:00 (including the weather report) just to June 4th Vigil, if it reports anything else during that time period, obviously they are self censoring, right?

I saw TVB here in the US via directtv and I saw the candlelight vigil and I don't see anything wrong with that.
