一群《明報》前員工的聲明


我們是一群《明報》前員工。《明報》突然撤換總編輯劉進圖先生,空降一名來自東南亞的人接任,這決定令我們十分擔憂本港的新聞自由倒退。

有報道指事件導火線是《明報》編採部近期大篇幅報道免費電視牌事件,包括披露行政會議文件佐證政府處理不當;《明報》集團管理層叫收歛,編採部沒理會。若報道屬實,便嚴重損害新聞工作者發掘真相、監督政府的天職,一個傳媒機構越向權力低頭,只會越失去公眾信任,淪為喉舌。

《明報》集團馬來西亞老闆在中國大陸商業投資繁多,難免令人懷疑今次撤換總編輯,是徹底整頓《明報》之始。

我們呼籲《明報》管理層回應現職員工兩點要求﹕(1)交代撤換總編輯原因,及(2)承諾編採方針不變,做好傳媒監察社會的角色。

有人可能認為,今次只是私人機構內部人事調動而已,不必大驚小怪。我們希望社會明白,香港若失去了新聞自由,其他自由亦會被逐步蠶食,這不是我們樂見的香港發展。

the amount of people reaching out to share their own worries about press freedom has been overwhelming. we are working on getting these concerns directly to the management team and will keep pushing until we get some real answers.

seeing so many people from our past life at the paper step up like this is pretty overwhelming. it shows just how much we all still care about what happens to the newsroom and the values we stood for back then.

《南早》換政協總編輯變《紅早》,我唔出聲,因爲我唔識英文。 《香港電台》烽煙節目叮走吳志森,我唔聲唔聲,因為仲有隔離台李慧玲。 《陽光時務》創辦人街頭遇襲,我沒有出聲,因為我唔識佢係乜水。 《蘋果日報》接連被縱火燒毀,我又唔出聲,因為蘋果娛記好八卦。 《am730》老闆施永青駕車被截停兼被鐵鎚打爆玻璃,我又唔出聲,因為過了一天就忘記了。 肥佬黎家遭撞閘放刀斧,我又唔出聲,因為有人話佢係賣國賊。 轉頭《蘋果日報》發行商勤力德老闆遭鐵騎士持牛肉刀斬傷,我唔知道,因為幾乎冇傳媒報。 《信報》換河蟹總編輯、抽起「獨眼香江」版文章,引發該版全組人請辭。我還是唔出聲,因為我唔睇這份扮精英的報紙。 《主場新聞》被網絡攻擊,我又唔聲唔聲,因為我唔上網。 《獨立媒體》被襲擊,我唔出聲,因為佢地成班左膠。 《DBC》「被商業糾紛」收檔,我唔出聲,因為數碼收音機貴。 《商台》公公把李慧玲從黃金時段烽煙節目調走,我又唔出聲,因為李慧玲把聲好難聽。 《明報》總編輯唔聽話被調走,編輯部面臨整肅,我又唔聲唔聲,因為聽聞個總編份人好串。 最後,我發現香江忽然十分和諧,乜新聞都冇。原來23條已獲高票通過,政改決定擁護一黨專政。

新聞自由係香港核心價值,如果連明報都要跪低,大家以後仲可以信邊個?管理層必須交代清楚,唔好當香港人係傻嘅。

Press freedom is not a gift from management but a right for the public. Watching the erosion of editorial independence is deeply worrying for all of us who care about the truth.

The demise of the 4th estate means the loss of social conscience. It takes years of hard and good work to build credibility but a silly ugly gesture to destroy a hard-earned reputation.

事情不能不明不白。我不是為支持哪個特定人物而來,但這種突然撤換的行動,難免令人懷疑明報是否將實行另一套編輯方針。有人說,記者都是打工仔,老闆要怎樣就怎樣,說這種話的人,不明白“記者”這個稱號對許多人來說,不僅僅是謀生工具,還有一份責任和追求。

I can't imagine the world without freedom of speech and the power of monitoring government.
