Demonstrators, CtiTV employees engage in shouting match (2014/04/09)

Angry demonstrators opposed to CtiTV were met today by a raucous group of CtiTV employees. As the protesters accused CtiTV of biased coverage of protests against the services trade pact Taiwan signed with China, CtiTV accused the protesters of infringing on freedom of the press. 

A line of police was all separated CtiTV workers and student protesters. Those on each side accused the other of trampling on freedom of the press.

CtiTV was prepared for the protesters. More than a hundred workers emerged at 2 pm wearing Wang Wang vests, a reference to their parent company. Students used rhymes to accuse channel 52 of destroying Taiwan. CtiTV accused the Democracy Kuroshio protesters of resorting to dictatorial, black-terror methods.

Outside the CtiTV building were red banners that said “oppose black terror” and “defend freedom of the press.” They were an impressive size but no match for the wind. The latter sign was blown off the wall. 

Protester
If you have no need for the “defend freedom of the press” banner then we’ll take it. We think it’s more suited to us.

The noisy protest was made noisier by the more than 20 loudspeakers used by CtiTV employees. An officer covered his ears as the employees managed to outshout the students several times.

While the students sang a battle hymn, CtiTV broadcast its own song. Lyrics included “we are one family.”

Free Taiwan Front staged the protest over what it calls biased reporting by CtiTV of the services trade pact protests. CtiTV is often accused of having a pro-China slant.

學運圍中天

由十多個民間團體組成的「自由台灣陣線」,延續學運訴求,今天前往內湖掃街,第一站到中天電視台,抗議對學運報導偏頗,沒想到中天不甘示弱,出動二十幾隻大聲公,自備標語和超大型紅布條反宣傳,雖然沒有任何肢體衝突,但雙方當場對嗆,火藥味濃厚。

隔著中間的警察,中天員工與學生隔空叫陣,互罵對方迫害新聞自由。

迎接台灣陣線的成員,中天有備而來,下午兩點一到,出動上百名員工,通通穿上旺旺背心,雙方標語對決,學生秀出「52台毀滅全台」,中天反嗆民主黑潮是「黑色恐怖真正獨裁」。

中天還以紅色巨型布條佈置大樓,兩行大字「拒絕黑色恐怖」、「捍衛新聞自由」,意圖營造驚人氣勢,沒想到因為風大,「捍衛新聞自由」掉了,被酸了一頓。

[[抗議人士]]
“對於剛剛掉下來的捍衛新聞自由的布條,如果你們用不到的話,我們想要接
收,因為我們覺得,我們比較適合使用這個布條”

中天不甘示弱,出動二十幾支大聲公,同時吶喊,音量吵到有員警摀著耳朵,好幾度成功蓋過學生講話的聲音。

不止吶喊,中天還播放歌曲對抗學生的戰歌。

自由台灣陣線怒嗆中天對學運報導不公,但中天反駁,這是干預新聞自由,雙方對槓,誰也不讓誰。
