arters of Hong Kong's first over-the-air television station

Most of the newspapers in Hong Kong are written in Chinese but there are also a few English-language newspapers. The major one is the South China
Morning Post, with The Standard serving as a business-oriented alternative. A variety of Chinese-language newspapers are published daily; the most
prominent are Ming Pao and Oriental Daily News. Local publications are often politically affiliated, with pro-Beijing or pro-democracy sympathies. The
central government has a print-media presence in the territory through the state-owned Ta Kung Pao and Wen Wei Po.[358] Several international
publications have regional operations in Hong Kong, including The Wall Street Journal, Financial Times, The New York Times International
Edition, USA Today, Yomiuri Shimbun, and The Nikkei.[359]

Three free-to-air television broadcasters operate in the territory; TVB, HKTVE, and Hong Kong Open TV air eight digital channels.[360] TVB, Hong Kong's
dominant television network, has an 80% viewer share.[361] Pay TV services operated by Cable TV Hong Kong and PCCW offer hundreds of additional
channels and cater to a variety of audiences.[360] RTHK is the public broadcaster, providing seven radio channels and three television channels.[362] Ten
non-domestic broadcasters air programming for the territory's foreign population.[360] Access to media and information over the Internet is not subject to
mainland Chinese regulations, including the Great Firewall, yet local control applies.[363]
