Complaints Dealt with by the Communications Authority (“CA”) (Released on 28 February 2019) Complaints dealt with by the Communications Authority (“CA”) (released on 28 February 2019) The CA considered the following case which had been deliberated by the Broadcast Complaints Committee (“BCC”) – Complaint Case Television Advertisement for “HKTV Mall Thankful Festival” (HKTV Mall感謝祭) broadcast by Television Broadcasts Limited (“TVB”) The CA also considered cases of dissatisfaction with the decisions of the Director-General of Communications (“DG Com”) on complaint cases. Having considered the recommendations of the BCC, the CA decided– 1. that the complaints against the television advertisement for “HKTV Mall Thankful Festival” (HKTV Mall感謝祭) were unsubstantiated and no further action should be taken against TVB; and 2. to uphold the decisions of the DG Com on two cases of dissatisfaction with the decisions of the DG Com. The list of the cases is available in the Appendix. 28 February 2019 Case – Television Advertisement for “HKTV Mall Thankful Festival” (HKTV Mall 感謝祭) broadcast at various time slots from 11 October to 4 November 2018 on Jade Channel and News Channel of Television Broadcasts Limited (“TVB”) The Communications Authority (“CA”) received 12 public complaints against the captioned advertisement. The substance of the complaints was that the portrayal of a woman jumping through a glass window was dangerous, of a bad theme and unsuitable for children, exerted a bad influence on children and would invite imitation, notwithstanding that the caption “觀眾切勿模仿” was superimposed on the screen. The CA’s Findings In line with the established practice, the CA considered the complaint case and the representations of TVB and the advertiser in detail. The CA took into account the relevant aspects of the case, including the following – Details of the Case (a) the 20-second advertisement under complaint was an advertisement for the promotional offers available on an online shopping platform. There were six versions of the advertisement with largely the same contents, except for the final part which covered different brands/products and promotional offers. Against the caption “觀眾切勿模仿” superimposed on the top right corner of the screen, a woman got off from work in an office setting and there was a shot of her jumping through a glass window. The window was smashed into pieces, with a glimpse of the woman getting out from the window. The voice-over then indicated that the woman was hurrying to participate in a shopping campaign held by the advertised online shop. The advertisement ended with the introduction of a list of discounted brands/products and promotional offers; and (b) the Jade and News Channels had broadcast the relevant versions of the advertisement during the family viewing hours (i.e. 4:00pm – 8:30pm). Relevant Provisions in the Generic Code of Practice on Television Advertising Standards (“TV Advertising Code”) and the Generic Code of Practice on Television Programme Standards (“TV Programme Code”) TV Advertising Code (a) paragraph 2 of Chapter 3 - the content, presentation and placement of all advertising material must comply with the TV Programme Code TV Programme Code (b) paragraph 2 of Chapter 2 - the FVH are determined as the period between the hours of 4:00pm and 8:30pm on any day, during which time nothing which is unsuitable for children should be shown; (c) paragraph 1 of Chapter 7 - the licensee should be vigilant on the likely effects of all material shown on television on children; and (d) paragraph 6 of Chapter 7 - the portrayal of dangerous behaviour easily imitated by children should be avoided. This applies especially to the use in a manner likely to cause serious injury, of knives and other offensive weapons, articles or substances which are readily accessible to children. The CA’s Considerations The CA, having regard to the relevant facts of the case, considered that – (a) in the advertisement under complaint, the portrayal of an office lady smashing against a glass window and jumping through the shattered glass for the purpose of shopping was exaggerated and to a certain extent, surreal. While the smashing and jumping act should not be endorsed or encouraged, it was arguable that the portrayal sought to achieve the dramatic effect of surprising the audience and that audience nowadays, including children, were in general mature enough to distinguish dramatised scenes from real life. Given the latter and the inclusion of the advisory caption “觀眾切勿模仿” in the advertisement, the risk of imitation by children might not be high; and (b) having balanced all relevant factors, there was insufficient evidence that the relevant provisions had been breached in the present case. Decision In view of the above, the CA considered the complaints unsubstantiated and decided that no further action should be taken against TVB.

    Heightening Sense of Crises over Press Freedom in Hong Kong: Advancing “Shrinkage” 20 Years after Returning to China April 2018 YAMADA Ken-ichi NHK Broadcasting Culture Research Institute Media Research & Studies _____________________________ *This article is based on the same authors’ article Hong Kong no “Hodo no Jiyu” ni Takamaru Kikikan ~Chugoku Henkan kara 20nen de Susumu “Ishuku”~, originally published in the December 2017 issue of “Hoso Kenkyu to Chosa [The NHK Monthly Report on Broadcast Research]”. Full text in Japanese may be accessed at http://www.nhk.or.jp/bunken/research/oversea/pdf/20171201_7.pdf 1 Introduction Twenty years have passed since Hong Kong was returned to China from British rule. At the time of the 1997 reversion, there were concerns that Hong Kong, which has a laissez-faire market economy, would lose its economic vigor once the territory is put under the Chinese Communist Party’s one-party rule. But the Hong Kong economy has achieved generally steady growth while forming closer ties with the mainland. However, new concerns are rising that the “One Country, Two Systems” principle that guarantees Hong Kong a different social system from that of China is wavering and press freedom, which does not exist in the mainland and has been one of the attractions of Hong Kong, is shrinking. On the rankings of press freedom compiled by the international journalists’ group Reporters Without Borders, Hong Kong fell to 73rd place in 2017 from 18th in 2002.1 This article looks at how press freedom has been affected by a series of cases in the Hong Kong media that occurred during these two decades, in line with findings from the author’s weeklong field trip in mid-September 2017.

    CHINA MEDIA BULLETIN A biweekly update of press freedom and censorship news related to the People’s Republic of China Issue 95: October 29, 2013 Headlines Paper forced to retreat after bold defense of detained journalist Peking University fires dissident scholar Xia Yeliang Social media mum on Yuyao flooding, blogger crackdown cited Overlooking censorship, foreign media leaders flock to Chinese summit Beijing blocks criticism at UN rights review PHOTO OF THE WEEK: A BOLDFACE CRY FOR FREEDOM Credit: Sina Weibo BROADCAST / PRINT MEDIA NEWS Paper forced to retreat after bold defense of detained journalist On October 18, journalist Chen Yongzhou of New Express newspaper in Guangzhou, Guangdong Province, was summoned by local police and then turned over to authorities from Changsha, Hunan Province. He was accused of “damaging the business reputation” of Zoomlion, one of the country’s largest construction machinery businesses, which is partly owned by the Hunan government. After several days of quiet attempts to secure Chen’s release, New Express published a full front-page editorial with the headline “Please Release Him.” It defended Chen’s reporting, claiming that staff had reviewed his 15 articles about Zoomlion and discovered only one minor error. The editorial was a rare example of Chinese media directly appealing to the public over the unfair treatment of one of their journalists. In an outcry reminiscent of the January protest against censorship at Guangzhou’s Southern Weekly (see CMB special), New Express garnered support from prominent bloggers and business figures. The Central Propaganda Department reportedly instructed media not to cover the incident, but several commercial papers published statements of solidarity.

Palabras clave: Medios de comunicación, China, Rusia, India, Mercado ABSTRACT: The intention of this work is to establish a structural map of the communicative situation in China, Rusia and India, three big powers that progressive form haver been taking positioning in the media global market. Keywords: Mass media, China, Rusia, India, Market China Hasta el año 2004, las actividades de producción y gestión de radio y televisión, así como la producción cinematográfica de compañías de capital extranjero pertenecían a la categoría de ‘restringidas' y podía haber participación externa sin necesidad de un socio chino que tuviera un porcentaje accionarial mayoritario. A partir de 2007, en cambio, estas actividades han pasado a estar prohibidas. Con esta medida se limita el número de compañías extranjeras que pueden intervenir en el mercado chino y se preserva un margen de control para el gobierno.
