CHINA-HONGKONG: CHINA-OWNED TA KUNG PAO CALLS FOR CLOSURE OF APPLE DAILY
The China-owned and HongKong-based Ta Kung Pao on April 16 called for the closure of the Apple Daily. It called the Apple Daily an "anti-China and anti-SAR" newspaper "whose purpose is to become a public opinion machine for foreign anti-China forces and to stir up troubles in Hong Kong". Asserting that "Apple is already a thoroughly anti-Chinese newspaper", it said "what is strange is that such a newspaper can still exist to this day. Isn't this a weird thing?"
