    Can Hong Kong's Communication Authority do the same? ban CCTV in Hong Kong, which air on RTHK33 and TVB Pearl at noon..

    How can one ban one's own state broadcaster?!?

    I think Nivek is a bit hopeful . PS: Pearl also airs CGTN just before they close for the night if you want a second serving (not recommended).

    I wonder what retaliation for British media organisations and journalists will follow, in China, and possibly Hong Kong.

    I notice some correspondents have already gone to Taiwan - for example Helen Davidson of the Guardian.

    I would not want to be a BBC reporter at this point, as much as I cannot stand one of them.. I hope they can leave safely if they need to.

    As a result, we can expect Sky news or ITV news to lose their license in China.

    Hehehe.

    On a more serious note, yes, if that does happen, I will greet it with a shrug, I doubt China was a big market for them to begin with. No big loss.

    BBC banned in China - will that include HK?

    Not the 1st time they have been banned. Any credible media not banned in China at this point?
