Wall St Journal reporter says she was fired over Hong Kong union role
A former Wall Street Journal reporter in Hong Kong accuses the paper of firing her over her role leading a press union and advocating for press freedom in the Chinese city.
Reporter Selina Cheng said her supervisor at the Journal told her to withdraw from running for the chair of the Hong Kong Journalists Association (HKJA) as employees "should not be seen as advocating for press freedom in a place like Hong Kong", Cheng says.
