A spate of violence against media companies in Hong Kong is being seen as a new round of intimidation by the Chinese regime.

A high-profile media proprietor in Hong Kong, who runs a newspaper that regularly takes on the Chinese Communist Party, had his house raided by anticorruption investigators on Aug. 28.

An apparent attempt to embarrass the owner of an independent newspaper in Hong Kong by hacking his email has called attention to the attempts to drive independent media out of Hong Kong.

A march of tens of thousands on Sunday expressed that frustration, as well as opposition generally to Ma Ying-jeou, the president and head of the Nationalist Party, whose administration has been characterized by China-friendly policies.
