The Stand News journalist denied entry to the Hong Kong Coalition launch ceremony run by Beijing Loyalists
Hong Kong Coalition, led by former Chief Executives and Vice-Chairman of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) Tung Chee-hwa and Leung Chun-ying, held a press conference to announce its official establishment.
When a journalist from The Stand News arrived to cover the event, he was denied entry by the conference staff, citing that The Stand News is an “uninvited media”. According to other press on site, another journalist who did not receive any invitation was, however, let in.
The Stand News journalist questioned the double standard, and the staff said, "That reporter arrived early and waited for a while before we found a seat for him, but there are no seats now".

Beijing Mouthpiece Defames a 11-year-old Hong Kong Boy and Uses Fake Identity to Approach his Family
In Hong Kong, 11-year-old #JoelWong, the founder of the Tin Shui Wai Community Concern Group, was assaulted by a pro-Beijing elderly man on January 25, 2021.
Wong saw a group of elderly women and men gathering and dancing in a park in Tin Shui Wai. When he approached the group, reminding them to keep the music down, he was headbutted by one of the men who also punched Wong on his tummy.
Since Wong reported the case to the Hong Kong Police, Wong has been harassed by Ta Kung Pao, a Beijing-owned newspaper. On January 26, 2021, the CCP mouthpiece even published a so-called "interview" with Wong’s Grandmother on its frontpage, defaming the community-caring Wong as "going astray".
The Concern Group told Stand News that the reporter of Ta Kung Pao, who "interviewed" Wong's grandmother first claimed to be his teacher and social worker. When Wong's grandmother let the reporter into their apartment, he took picture of their household and other family members. It was only after that he then revealed his identity as a reporter.
The Concern Group denounced the reporter’s action, calling it “shameful” to chat with Wong's family and “betray their trust.”
