【新唐人2014年01月14日讯】香港明报突然撤换总编辑一事，引发外界对香港传媒赤化的忧虑。事隔一周后，明报管理层才首次和明报员工关注组见面，并首次会见传媒。《明报》编务总监张健波表示，最理想是由香港人担任总编辑，但就指明报老板张晓卿有自己的考虑。
明报员工关注组星期一下午和管理层开会四个多小时后，和传媒见面。
管理层之一，担任明报总编16年的《明报》编务总监张健波，强调总编位置很重要，对于外界担心赤化的忧虑，他也有无奈。
《明报》编务总监张健波：“我自己觉得最理想是一个大家公认了解情况的香港人，不过老板有自己的考虑，老板要找一个他信得过的人来做。”
至于盛传是接任人的前《南洋商报》总编钟天祥，张健波形容是比较大可能的人选。他强调人选的任命权在老板。”
《明报》编务总监张健波：“他自己本身要为自己的眼光负责任。这个亦都是公平的。员工代表指，双方仍未有共识，下周四再开会。”
明报员工关注组成员冼韵姬：“除了编辑部的信任外，我们认为总编辑要熟悉香港的情况，但就这两点，刚才讨论都未达成共识。”
据香港大纪元披露，明报老板张晓卿和中共江泽民派系关系密切，亦是薄熙来的亲信，最近一个时期明报转向支持习近平，引起江派极大不满，怀疑因此触发换总编一事。

Ming Pao Editor-In-Chief Replacement: Cheung Kin-por Says Chief Executive Tiong Hiew King Is Responsible
The replacement of the Ming Pao editor-in-chief has
triggered concerns about the Chinese Communist regime
invading Hong Kong media.
A week after the change, Ming Pao management staff
met with Ming Pao staff members and the media
for the first time.
Ming Pao Editorial Director Cheung Kin-por stated that
the best candidate for editor-in-chief is someone
from Hong Kong, but the owner Tiong Hiew King
has his own concerns.
Concerned staff at Ming Pao met with the media after
a more than four-hour meeting with the management
group on Monday afternoon.
Editorial Director Cheung Kin-por, a 16 year Ming Pao
veteran, emphasized the importance of the editor-in-chief
position, but said he was given no choice in the matter.
Ming Pao Editorial Director Cheung Kin-por: “I think the ideal
person is an accepted Hong Kong resident who understands
the conditions; but the owner has his own concerns
and needed to find a trustworthy person to address them."
As for whether the rumored successor is former
Nanyang Siang Pau Chief Editor Zhong Tianxiang,
Cheung Kin Bor said it is possible.
He stressed that the chief executive has the right
to appoint candidates.
Ming Pao Editorial Director Cheung Kin Bor: “He has to be
responsible for his own decision, since that is also fair.
The employee representative said both sides have not
reached a consensus and will meet again next Thursday."
Ming Pao Staff Concern Group member Xian Yunji: “In
addition to the trust of the editorial department, we believe
that Ming Pao’s chief editor should be familiar
with Hong Kong’s situation.
But a consensus wasn’t reached on these two matters
in previous discussions."
According to the Epoch Times’ Hong Kong branch,
Ming Pao Chief Executive Hiew-king Tiong has close ties
to the Chinese Communist Party Jiang Zemin faction
and is a trusted follower of Bo Xilai.
Its recent support of Xi Jinping triggered the Jiang faction’s
resentment, which is suspected to be the reason behind
the change of editor.
