A court in Hong Kong on Thursday found two local journalists from the shuttered Stand News guilty of conspiring to publish seditious materials. That’s a first for Hong Kong since it came back under Chinese control. Eleven articles published by the former Stand News were found to be seditious by the court. Host Carolyn Beeler speaks to Tom Grundy, director of the Hong Kong Free Press, about the case and its implications.
