HK01 (Chinese: 香港01) is a Hong Kong-based online news portal launched by Yu Pun-hoi, a former editor of the Ming Pao.[2] It is operated by HK01 Company Limited (香港01有限公司), established on 10 June 2015.[citation needed] The website went live on 11 January 2016. The company has a staff of approximately 700.[3]
Print edition
HK01 publishes a weekly paper every Friday, the first edition of which was released on 11 March 2016.[4]
Controversies
Coverage of Tiananmen Massacre anniversary
In 2017, HK01 was criticised by the Hong Kong Journalists Association (HKJA) for deleting an article covering release of new details of the Tiananmen Square massacre by the UK Government Archives shortly after the article's publication. Pressure from founder Yu Pun-hoi was suspected to have motivated the removal.[5] The article was later republished with a rebuttal, saying that mistakes had been made when verifying the information contained in the original version and denying there had been self-censorship.[6]
Stance on Taiwan and Hong Kong independence
In 2018, HK01 was again criticised by the HKJA over its tagging an article it published about Taiwanese independence with an anti-independence disclaimer.[7] The company maintains a black-list containing pro-independence parties and groups in Hong Kong whose events it will not attend, with whom it will not form partnerships, and from whom it will accept advertising.[8]
