Hong Kong's public broadcaster, RTHK, is under fire from the Oriental Group in a Hong Kong media war. ESWN says the war is a distraction. My problem is broader and something I've discussed before: why is Government involved in public broadacasting at all, at least in places with a free and open press?

simon, good point about the cathay pacific flights, but it seems to me that a lot of people knew this already as common knowledge.

they should make some kind of statement, although the last time I took that flight, i do seem to remember I wrote about the cosmic radiation thing on my blog.

of course, the SCMP doesn't read my blog, and my blog no longer exists, but... still.

seems, also, the flight attendants were very aware of it, and were talking to people openly about it in the cabin.
