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".
