相信2004年黃毓民和鄭經翰兩大名嘴被封咪,大家還記憶猶新。10年後的今天,商台再以同一方式,粗暴辭退時事節目主持人李慧玲,證實商台早已成為極權幫兇、扼殺新聞自由的劊子手。為了表示抗議,本報上周發起「斷商台米路,保新聞自由」活動,呼籲網友去信所有商台的廣告商,要求對方立即抽起商台廣告,不再助紂為虐。
活動得到了不少網民支持,也受到不少媒體和傳媒人士的關注。著名時事評論人練乙錚今日在《信報》撰文,支持新媒體「佔港」。練表示目前港人的確遇到對傳統媒體上的言論自由的無情打壓,需要傳媒工作者在每一個崗位上大力頂住;但當傳統媒體頂不住時,還有網上新媒體。他呼籲港人不要悲觀,只要新一代香港人能夠奮起自救,港人所擁有的言論力量並不會減弱,更不會「死」,只是換個陣地而已。
10年前被商台封咪的黃毓民,也在其網台節目中表示,百花齊放的新媒體,讓市民不再受制於主流媒體,是拯救香港的一條出路,所以本報所發起的「新媒體運動」,絕對值得支持。他表示市民早對主流媒體的節目感到厭倦,因為傳統評論節目的水準已十分低落,水準太差﹛新媒體只是應運而生。與此同時,新媒體必須要保持水準,以吸引更多人收聽和取得足夠的廣告支持。
政治漫畫《溫水劇場》作者白水,也在網上撰文及繪圖,呼籲網民支持新媒體。他指今日主流媒體大部分已被收編,中共也早已對網絡新媒體展開統戰。他認為主流媒體早已灰飛煙滅,網上電台和近年興起的網上新聞媒體,才是主要戰線。若大家不想要爛傳媒,應自己種新媒體。
《熱血時報》現特別選出10個商台的主要廣告客戶,繼續呼籲各讀者繼續以電郵形式,發信至以下商台的廣告客戶,勸戒他們立即抽起商台廣告。以下為中英文版的電郵範本及商台廣告客戶的電郵地址,希望各讀者立即行動,斷商台米路,保言論自由!

敬啟者:
自97以來,受着北方而來的政治壓力,香港人的言論自由、新聞自由一直被收緊,當中商台更多次成為極權扼殺新聞自由的劊子手。商台封殺時事節目主持,早於2004年開始,毓民、大班兩大名嘴接連被封咪,以至近日無故辭退李慧玲,商台已經不折不扣的成為了打壓言論自由的象徵,更讓香港瀰漫着政治打壓的白色恐怖。
得悉 貴公司是商台的廣告客戶,每月向商台奉上真金白銀,此舉誠如助紂為虐,讓這個漸失民心的商台得以繼續營運。繼續讓商台播出 貴公司的廣告,亦即代表了 貴公司支持這個帶頭打壓言論自由的媒體,這將會嚴重影響 貴公司的形象,損害 貴公司的商譽。
在這個言論自由日漸被收緊的時代, 貴公司也應負上社會責任,向商台這個打壓言論自由的象徵說不。望 貴公司三思,回頭是岸,抽起 貴公司在商台所購買的廣告,切勿成為極權的幫兇。

English version:
Dear Sir/Madam,
The
handover of Hong Kong to Chinese rule in 1997 has marked the beginning
of the erosion of free speech and press in this city, as a result of the
mounting political pressure from the Communist Party. Commercial Radio
Hong Kong (CRHK), one of the most popular radio stations with a long
history of broadcasting in Hong Kong, has actively participated in the
effort to silence dissent and suppress media freedom. In 2004, CRHK
fired Albert Cheng and Raymond Wong Yuk-Man, two of the most outspoken
critics of the Hong Kong and Chinese governments. It was widely
speculated at the time that their removal was a result of CRHK yielding
to political pressure in exchange for a renewal of its license.
Recently, CRHK repeated this act by firing another program host, Ms. Li
Wei Ling. To most Hongkongers, CRHK is an unethical broadcasting company
with no integrity or media accountability as it fails to uphold its
duty to safeguard Hong Kong people’s basic civil liberties.
I
understand that your company is a client of CRHK and regularly places
advertisements in its radio programs. By advertising your products on
CRHK’s platform, your company is financially supporting the operation of
a radio station that has lost its credibility and trust from the
public. Your continued financial support to CRHK means that your company
is siding with a radio station that has taken the lead in destroying
freedom of speech and press, two core values that Hong Kong people hold
dear. Any further association with this radio station will ruin your
company’s reputation in the minds of the Hong Kong people, as you may
have helped restrict freedom and perpetuate injustice in Hong Kong
through your business relationship with CRHK.
The
purpose of advertisement is to promote your products, not to alienate
your customers. Your company’s goodwill has taken decades to build, but
can be easily destroyed by a simple act of doing business with another
company that angers the public and violates Hong Kong citizens’
fundamental rights. In this day and age where corporate social
responsibility is essential to the success of a company, I urge you to
pull the plug on any sponsorship or advertisements you have placed with
CRHK. This will show your potential customers that your company is
siding with the people of Hong Kong, and refuses to become an accomplice
to any act of oppression of freedom. Thank you for your attention.
Yours truly,
(Your Name)
