Chinese Media Following Political Talk Shows! Accused by TV Station, Refutes with《Liberty》 for Verification and Mocks 'Too Afraid to Speak Up'

Reported 12 months ago

On June 27, 2024, China Times reported that a mainland Chinese journalist was monitoring a certain domestic political talk show from within the studio. The host of '57 Breaking News' revealed that when the reported journalist called for verification, inquired whether 'Critical Battle' should criticize the Green Camp as requested by the Taiwan Affairs Office of the mainland, the claim was denied as 'baseless and fabricated.' Despite this, the report persisted without clear evidence. The host questioned, if not out of guilt, why not speak up? The talk show had yet to provide concrete evidence for the alleged mainland media surveillance, as reported by Liberty Times. Additionally, the host detailed a key phone conversation with Liberty Times on June 24, where a 'senior media figure' alleged that the Chinese Taiwan Affairs Office had contacted multiple Taiwanese TV stations earlier in the year to produce strip-style political talk shows critical of the Green Camp. Repeated inquiries were met with denials by the PR staff of one TV station, frustrating the persistent journalist. This incident underscores accusations of Chinese media involvement in Taiwanese programs.
