Hong Kong Free Press
Hong Kong independent, pro-democracy
Hong Kong Free Press is an independent, nonprofit English-language outlet founded in 2015 to cover Hong Kong news free from the influence of Beijing, pro-establishment business interests, or any government. It operates with no shareholders and draws nearly all its revenue from reader donations. Its coverage focuses on Hong Kong and the wider region, with a clear commitment to press freedom and democratic accountability; its reporting on the Trump administration is limited mainly to how U.S. policies—tariffs, media funding cuts, and statements about Hong Kong's status—affect the territory.
Owned byNot-for-profit company limited by guarantee; no shareholders. Co-founded and led by editor-in-chief Tom Grundy.
