關於我們
我們是一群來自香港的新聞工作者,過去兩年,眼看着一間又一間傳媒機構被迫結業,緊守崗位的新聞工作者身陷囹圄,新聞業界被打壓、被白色恐怖籠罩,我們都感到無力。
風雨飄搖,愈是無力,愈是偏執,所以我們決定再次出發,立足台灣、面向國際,繼續為香港人提供屬於大家的新聞,讓離散港人的聲音再次被聽見,讓那些早已掉進深淵、不能被言說的真相,重見天日。
我們堅信,新聞不是單聲道,更不應是發佈機器。只從一種角度觀看社會事件,是極其危險的事,聲音、論點理應多元。縱然相隔一個海峽,但我們矢志以專業、求真的態度和精神,跟進每天的本地及國際新聞,為讀者提供多角度思考。
「光」,是生命中不能缺少的元素。在黑暗裏,我們希望發出一點光,哪怕只是極其微弱的一點,讓我們能互相看見彼此。選擇了以「Photon」作為英文名字,光子就是以個體粒子形式呈現的光,能以光速傳送至極遠距離,作為一個媒體,我們是能量,也是一把獨立的聲音,希望把關於香港的新聞,從香港帶出去,亦把海外的資訊帶回香港。
吾道不孤,在通往光明的路道上,就讓我們依靠着彼此,一起等待那線晨光吧。
About Us
We are a group of Hong Kong journalists. After witnessing the forced closure of numerous news outlets, and journalists being trialed and jailed, press freedom in Hong Kong has been deteriorating dramatically in these few years. Based in Taiwan, Photon Media is an independent and vibrant news outlet. We strive to provide news with different perspectives, and let the voices of the Hong Kong diaspora and dissents be heard again. With the dismantling of civil society in Hong Kong, people fled the city and scattered around the globe. It is the moment to let them speak again and flourish in the now tendentious media environment.
Photon is an elementary particle of light radiation. “Even in the darkest of times we have the right to expect some illumination, and that such illumination may come from the uncertain, flickering, and often weak light that some men and women, in their lives and works, will kindle under almost all circumstances and shed over the time-span that was given them on earth,” said Hannah Arendt. The sparkle of illumination we light up might be too faint to be seen and known. But we have faith. Let us fulfill our duty as Hongkongers to light up hope in the era of darkness.
