Hong Kong Television Union Plans New Protests Over License Snub - Businessweek:

 "HKTV cut about 320 workers after the government snubbed its application in favor of PCCW Ltd. (8) and I-Cable Communications Ltd. (1097) on Oct. 15. Tens of thousands of Hong Kongers joined the protest over the week, reflecting concerns over government accountability and freedom of expression in the semi-autonomous Chinese city. HKTV plans to file for a judicial review, Chairman Ricky Wong said on Oct. 22."
