Can anyone out there help me a compile a list of the names of the major TV stations (in English and in Chinese, characters or pin yin) in Taiwan and the political leanings of these stations?
For example,
TVBS
TTTV (Dong Sen ?)
CTS (Min Shi ?) Green (?) [Is this where Rick Chu now works, formerly of the Taipei Times ?]
We’re moving this to “Culture and History” because of the Taiwan-related content and because it’s not so much about politics but rather general information.
TTV (Taiwan Dianshi – or Tai-Shi, for short)
This used to be owned by the Taiwan Provincial Government, so it was kinda like James Soong’s own private network. In the period leading up to him leaving office, TTV and its “cultural bureau,” TTVC, hosted many, many extremely expensive “farewell parties” for Soong around the country, all paid for by your tax dollars. (I hear from what I consider reliable sources that there were also lots of holes some of that money fell through; but that’s no big surprise.)
