【新唐人2012年2月3日訊】前「六四天安門學運」領袖王丹和台灣「旺旺中時集團」董事長蔡衍明打了一場筆仗，起因是蔡衍明對美國記者說，1989年「天安門大屠殺」並無此事，日前蔡衍明說，《華盛頓郵報》的報導斷章取義，願為「六四言論」道歉澄清。分析認為，中共「六四大屠殺」多數海外民眾都清楚，蔡應自己證實此事。
蔡衍明在王丹臉書上留言，澄清他早前的「六四言論」，他聲稱，是《華盛頓郵報》斷章取義、片面曲解了對他的訪談內容，要求王丹「還他一個清白公道」。他還表示，如果他的「六四言論」對兩岸同胞不尊重，他願意鄭重道歉。
2月1號，王丹對蔡衍明的澄清做出回應說：「蔡衍明先生提出澄清，我表示歡迎，這說明既有呈現出來的言論是不符合外界認知的，我認為蔡先生的這個判斷是正確的。」
王丹又在回覆中聲明，如果蔡先生認為自己的意思被曲解，最能夠還原他清白的是他本人。
王丹表示，言論自由要建立在講事實的基礎上，他作為六四事件的當事人，不可能對任何違反六四事件事實的相關言論保持沉默。他期待看到蔡衍明與《華盛頓郵報》交涉的結果。
《北京之春》雜誌主編胡平表示，蔡衍明說《華盛頓郵報》曲解了對他的訪談內容，他應該拿出證據，有一個明確的表示。
胡平：「蔡衍明自己需要他拿出證據，因為他說他原話不是那麼講的，他現在應該對這個問題有一個很明確的表示六四的問題我相信在海外，包括在台灣大多民眾都還是清楚的。」
「六四」親歷者鄭存柱認為，蔡衍明在給自己找臺階下。
「六四」親歷者鄭存柱：「他可能自己也覺得他那種言論是完全沒有邏輯的，他自己可能給自己找一個臺階，找一個合理的藉口。」
1月21號《華盛頓郵報》刊登記者對蔡衍明的訪談說，蔡衍明在中國有大量生意，和中共當局關係密切，他還收購台灣媒體。
報導說，當談到六四天安門事件時，蔡衍明表示，六四「天安門事件」中隻身阻擋坦克的那個畫面讓他震驚，那個人「居然活著」，「說明所謂『大屠殺』之說顯然不對，並沒有真的死那麼多人。」
這篇訪談刊出後，王丹在自己的臉書上針對蔡衍明之相關言論表達不滿並宣佈：「本人即日起拒買《中國時報》！」。
很多網友也回應拒買《中國時報》或拒食旺旺食品，他們認為，蔡衍明發表這樣的言論是為私利而出賣良心。台灣自由派教授學者也撰文批判蔡衍明。
鄭存柱表示：「當年王維林擋坦克是在6月5號上午，大白天有很多外國記者，中共不敢貿然把一個擋坦克的人壓死，但是，這個邏輯並不證明，中共沒開槍殺人。」
「六四」受害者方政指出：「在六四『屠殺』中，一個不能抹殺的事實就是，我親身經歷的這麼一個場景，坦克瘋狂的向人群衝殺過來，造成了大量的傷亡。」
2月2號王丹在臉書上再度針對蔡衍明提出「個人持保留態度」，他將在看到《華盛頓郵報》的報導是否真有片面報導之處，再做回應。王丹還說，自己所屬的《澄社》，已經與《中國時報》聯絡，願意與蔡衍明當面交換意見。

Tsai Eng Meng apologizes for June 4th Massacre Comment
Wang Dan is a former June 4th Tiananmen Square student
movement leader.
Tsai Eng Meng is Taiwan’s WantWant Corporation CEO.
The two have been in confrontation regarding Tsai’s comment
during an interview with American reporter.
Tsai denied the existence of the Tiananmen Square Massacre.
Tsai Eng Meng has recently stated the Washington Post
report twisted his words, and he is willing to apologize.
Tsai clarified that most overseas citizens know about the
Chinese regime’s Tiananmen Square Massacre.
Tsai left a message on Wang Dan’s Facebook page, clarifying
his previous comment on the June 4th incident.
He claims the Washington Post distorted his words, and
twisted the content of the interview.
He wants Wang Dan to help prove his innocence.
He also expressed, if his June 4th comment was disrespectful,
he is willing to sincerely apologize.
On Feb 1, Wang Dan responded to Tsai’s message, “Mr. Tsai
Eng Meng proposed to clarify, I express my welcome.
This shows that the reported comment was opposing the
known facts, I think Mr. Tsai made a right decision.”
Wang also said, if Mr. Tsai thinks his words were twisted,
then he himself is the best person to prove his innocence.
Wang Dan expressed, freedom of speech is built on the
foundation of speaking the facts.
As a participant in the June 4th incident, he can’t stay silent
to any comments that violate the facts.
He hopes to see the results of Tsai’s interaction with the
Washington Post.
Chief Editor of Beijing Spring Magazine Hu Ping commented.
Tsai Eng Meng says the Washington Post twisted his words,
then he should show proof of that.
Hu Ping: “Tsai Eng Meng must show proof that those were
not his original words.
He needs to make a clear statement regarding that.
I think regarding the June 4th incident, most Taiwanese
citizens know the facts.”
June 4th incident witness Zheng Cunzhu believes Tsai
is looking for a way out.
Zheng Cunzhu: “He might feel that his words are not logical,
and he is looking for a way out, a logical excuse.”
The Jan 21 Washington Post interview with Mr. Tsai said
that Tsai Eng Meng has a lot of China business interest.
He is very close to the Chinese regime.
He also bought Taiwanese media.
When discussing June 4th incident, Tsai was quoted to say
that the video of the person blocking the tank was shocking.
However, “We saw on TV that the man who blocked a column
of tanks was not killed [at Tiananmen Square]…
“If the Chinese government had wanted, it could have killed
so many. Therefore, you cannot call it a 『massacre….”
After this interview was published, Wang Dang protested
Tsai’s comments on Facebook.
He wrote, “I will refuse to buy China Times from now on!”
Many netizens also responded saying they will stop buying
China Times and WantWant food products.
They say that Tsai’s comments are out of greed and against
human conscience.
Taiwan’s liberal professor and scholars also criticized Tsai.
Zheng Cunzhu, “Wang Weilin blocking the tank was on the
morning of June 5th, many foreign reporters were there.
The Chinese regime does not dare to crush someone.
However, this can’t show that the regime didn’t open fire
on people.”
June 4th victim Fang Zheng, “The June 4th massacre
is an undeniable fact.
I personally experienced it, tanks madly crushing into the
crowds, causing a large number of injuries and deaths.”
On Feb 2, Wang Dan wrote on his Facebook that he will wait
and see.
He will make a response after he has seen an article in the
Washington Post clarifying Tsai’s interview.
Wang Dang also said, Chengshe, which he is part of, has
contacted China Times, hoping to discuss with Mr. Tsai.
