Some HK journalists should feel ashamed

ON TUESDAY, after the end of a police news conference in Hong Kong, about 20 Hong Kong journalists surrounded a female colleague from the Chinese mainland and used harsh words against her. China Daily writer Zhang Zhouxiang comments:

The whole incident was soon made clear as it was caught on video. The female journalist from the mainland is Chen Xiaoqian, head of the Hong Kong branch of Guangdong Radio and Television. During the news conference, she tried to make a video record of the Q&A with her smartphone, which made some of the Hong Kong journalists angry.

At the end of the news conference, about 20 Hong Kong journalists surrounded her, accused her of being a "fake" journalist, and demanded to see her press card. The whole incident was recorded on video.
