【新唐人2011年5月28日讯】负责海葬“基地”组织领袖本‧拉登的美国航空母舰“卡尔文森号（USS Carl Vinson）”战斗群，早前抵达香港，吸引了各界媒体前去采访。《新唐人》驻香港记者站记者获得美国领馆的邀请，登上航母進行采访。第二天，香港媒体《中国评论通讯社》报导的新闻图片中，《新唐人》的台标却被打上了马赛克。我们来看报导。
《中评社》23号刊登的《海葬拉登航母访港 相信香港安全》的报导中，从新闻图片可以清晰的看到，《新唐人》的麦克风所在位置非常醒目，左边的是香港有线电视，右边的是香港TVB电视台，央视CCTV则被压在了下面。但是《新唐人》的台标却被打上了马赛克。
当时获得邀请上“卡尔文森”号進行采访的《新唐人》记者梁珍透露，美国航空母舰访问香港，是新闻媒体人非常关注的话题，当时有几百名媒体人申请采访，最后被批准的只有100名。而美国领馆批准了《新唐人》两位记者上舰艇采访。
对于《中评社》把《新唐人》的台标有意遮盖，梁珍表示，这不是孤例，类似现象也曾经发生，比如香港《凤凰卫视》以及香港《亚视》就被要求不能让《新唐人》的台标出现。
《新唐人》驻香港记者梁珍：“当天被摆在正中间的媒体醒目的标志被打上格子，说明有人很害怕《新唐人》。从今天这种行为，我觉得很明显他们比《凤凰卫视》以及香港《亚视》还要亲共，这个很值得警惕。《新唐人》的麦克风出不出去，也成为一个试金石吧，就是可以检验这些媒体的背景，它是蒙面的亲共媒体？还是中共到底对他们控制多少？从这些细节都可以看得出来。”
香港《开放》杂志执行编辑蔡咏梅分析，从《中评社》的行为，可以看出它是一个具有中共官方背景的媒体，那么，它一切就会按照中宣部的指令去做。
香港《开放》杂志执行编辑蔡咏梅：“这样做我觉得就很搞笑，它为什么不直接用《中新社》或者是《新华社》名义，它就是想给人一个，它是个民间的独立的这样一个假象，但是，如果你用这种假象的话，不是那种客观的，等于不打自招、欲盖弥彰的告诉人家它有中共官方的背景。”
蔡咏梅指出，中共在这几年，花巨资在海外收购了很多海外媒体，目地是利用它们来为自己说话。但收效不大。
蔡咏梅：“因为你在海外这个市场，新闻一定要做的越客观越公正，你绑手绑脚做新闻的话，而且意识形态倒向来做新闻的话，那么你在这个市场的竞争力就很难。”
那么，《新唐人》的节目为什么让中共感到害怕而严厉封杀呢？
梁珍：“新唐人电视台和其他的敢于报导事实真相的一些独立媒体，成为中共的眼中钉。因为我们不受它的控制。包括中共封锁和屏蔽的新闻，我们都是第一时间报导。我们的节目都是把中国民众的声音带到全世界来，中共是最害怕这一点的。因为它一旦被曝光的话，（它）这种党文化的洗脑方式也就是没有效果了。”
针对《中评社》的行为，《新唐人电视台》发言人洪凯莉提出了强烈的抗议。
《新唐人电视台》发言人洪凯莉：“《新唐人》强烈谴责这种帮助中共封杀独立媒体的做法。这次事件也让新闻界人士非常忧心香港的媒体环境，以及独立媒体在香港的存在和发展的空间。作为全球少数几个独立中文媒体之一，《新唐人》希望大家继续关注，中共及一些亲共媒体，对新唐人的打压和歧视。
最近，《新唐人亚太电视台》未获中华电信续约的消息，引起海内外的关注。美国、欧洲和台湾政要、《新唐人》在各个国家以及大陆的观众，对中共插手干涉新闻自由、阻挡民众获取真相的做法，表示强烈的谴责。
梁珍表示，《新唐人电视台》的覆盖面越来越广，受欢迎的程度越来越高，中共的打压反而让《新唐人》扬名国际，她相信，“亚太电视台未获续约事件”一定能得到妥善解决，一定会有更多的人收看得到《新唐人》。

NTDTV Logo Masked by Pro-Chinese Communist Party media, Why?
US aircraft carrier "USS Carl Vinson" battle group that was responsible for the sea burial of Osama bin Laden, arrived in Hong Kong, attracting all the media. NTD reporters in HK were invited by US Consulate to conduct interviews on the carrier. Next day, HK media "China Review News Agency" published news pictures, with NTDTV's logo being masked with mosaic.
On May 23, China Review published a report titled "Carrier that Buried Bin Laden at Sea Visiting HK”.
In its photos, NTDTV's logo is in a very striking location, being flanked by HK Cable TV and The TVB (HK). Communist mouthpiece CCTV was at the bottom. However, NTDTV's logo was masked on purpose.
According to NTD reporter Liang Zhen, who was invited onto the carrier, there were hundreds of media applying for interviews on the aircraft carrier, but only 100 were approved by the U.S. Consulate.
Two reporters of NTD received the approval.
Regarding China Review masking NTD's logo in photos, Liang Zhen said it is not an isolated case.
HK's Phoenix Satellite TV and HK ATV have been asked not to let NTDTV's logo appear on television.
Liang Zhen (NTD reporter in HK): NTDTV's logo was masked on purpose. This shows that someone is afraid of NTD. I feel that this incident shows that China Review is more pro-Communist Party than Phoenix and ATV. This is very alarming. Whether NTD logo can appear on screen or not has become a background check for these media. Are they pro-CCP? To what extent are they controlled?
All these could be figured out from small details.
HK Open magazine executive editor Cai Yongmei said from China Review's conduct, we can see that it has a background connected with the CCP, and it works for the Central Propaganda Department .
Cai Yongmei (HK Open magazine Executive Editor): I feel it is very funny (to mask NTD's logo).
Why doesn't China Review use the name of Xinhua? They tried to create an image of being Independent.
But if you are not objective, it are still revealing to people of your CCP background.
Cai pointed out that in recent years, the CCP spent large amounts of money to buy overseas media, trying to use them to speak for it, with little success.
Cai: In overseas market, news should be objective. If you make news with certain confinements,
or even with ideology orientation, it is hard for you to become competitive.
Why NTD is feared and severely blocked by the CCP?
Liang Zhen: NTDTV and other independent media that report the truth became a thorn in CCP's side.
News blocked by CCP are immediately reported by us. We bring Chinese people's voice to the world,
which is what the CCP most afraid of. Once CCP is exposed, its party culture brainwashing will lose effect.
Regarding China Review's behavior, NTD spokeswoman Hong Kaili made a strong protest.
Hong Kaili (NTD spokeswoman): NTD strongly condemns this act of helping the CCP to ban independent media. This made media personnel to worry about HK's free press environment.
As one of few independent global Chinese media, NTD hopes people to pay continued attention to
the suppression and discrimination against NTD by the CCP and some pro-CCP media.
Recently NTD Asia-Pacific was denied contract renewal by Chunghwa Telecom in Taiwan.
This has caused concerns in Taiwan and globally. US, European and Taiwanese politicians and
NTD audience all strongly condemn the CCP's interference with news freedom.
Liang Zhen said, NTD's coverage is increasing, and it is gaining more popularity. The CCP's suppression made NTD famous globally. Liang believes NTD Asia-Pacific's issue would soon be satisfactorily resolved, and more will watch NTDV.
