親愛的香港人︰

在新聞自由被無限延伸的紅綫蠶食之時,

多謝你,繼續支持我們的報導,

多謝你,在路上向我們說聲加油,

今天,我們想請大家攜手保護新聞工作者的安全。

過去幾年,我們在工作期間遇上襲擊的個案急速上升,嚴重影響香港的新聞自由;例如於一六年旺角衝突期間,一名《明報》記者在工作時被多名警員襲擊,至今仍未能討回公道。而近日多名新聞工作者在採訪一連串因修訂《逃犯條例》而引起的社會事件時,亦受到來自警察及集會人士在內,不同形式的暴力對待及傷害:例如有記者在表明身份後,仍然被警員以粗口侮辱及追打;有集會人士阻礙或襲擊記者拍攝等等。而最嚴重的個案之一,包括一名攝影記者,被警棍打傷食指,需要停工多個月。

更不幸的是,對部份受傷害的新聞工作者而言,公義竟然只能自行通過法律手段爭取,漫長的司法程序不但令受害人耗費心力及時間,更需要負擔龐大的法律費用。

如果記者受到暴力傷害的情況持續惡化,免於恐懼的自由將蕩然無存,同時當公義亦未能得到彰顯,我們在前綫工作時,無可避免會增加一層疑慮,勢令新聞自由雪上加霜,嚴重影響社會大眾的知情權。

有見及此,香港記者協會決定成立「保護記者基金」,希望可透過來自各位香港市民的捐款,資助新聞工作者對任何於其工作時施行暴力的人士,採取法律行動。我們絕對不希望任何新聞工作者再受到暴力對待,但來自香港人的支持,將是我們的強大後盾,令我們可以繼續於最前綫,為市民帶來第一手資訊,捍衛我們得來不易的新聞自由。

Dear Hongkongers,

As you may already know, reports of attacks on journalists increased significantly in recent years, for example, a journalist from Ming Pao was assaulted by police officers during the Mong Kok Clash in 2016. And more recently, HKJA received about 30 cases of complaint of ill treatments and assaults by police officers, and from members of the public, during the recent protests.

Justice can only be sought by the victims themselves through the Court of Law. This timely process generates tremendous emotional and financial stress on the journalists involved. If the safety of our colleagues cannot be guaranteed, it would be much more difficult for us to cover news on the frontline; and without credible first-hand information, access to information for the public, as well as press freedom, would suffer greatly.

In lieu of this risk, the HKJA is launching the Journalist Protection Fund and this crowdfunding campaign, with a goal to provide financial assistance to any member of the press in Hong Kong, who is taking legal action against any person who act violently towards them at work.

Whatever amount of your contribution is, your support means even more to us in a time when we have seen more 'redlines' than ever, and in our fight to defend press freedom in Hong Kong.

【注意!】本會發現偽冒記協「保護記者基金」的眾籌平台,涉嫌抄襲我們的基金名稱、基金內容以及展示的相片。本會保留法律追究權利。[WATCH OUT!] Beware of counterfeit crowdfunding website! HKJA has discovered a counterfeit crowdfunding platform of our Journalists Protection Fund, which was launched on July 14. The platform is suspected of counterfeiting our name, content and pictures displayed on the crowdfunding platform. HKJA reserves the right to legal proceeding.×××××保護記者基金第一期籌募100萬元的目標已超額完成!感謝大家支持。用法律途徑爭取公義的成本昂貴,訟費難以預算,但在沒有獨立調查委員會的情況下,這已是最後及唯一的手段,為一群工作期間受襲的記者討回公道。現時的記者的工作環境並不理想,政府無視社會日益撕裂下,相信記者日後工作期間面對的暴力事件只會越來越多。為此,我們現提高籌款目標至300萬,以便惠及更多記者,請大家繼續支持。保護記者基金:https://assets.gogetfunding.com/hkjaraisefund/
