Hong Kong's government broadcaster, Radio Television Hong Kong (RTHK), has removed thousands of episodes of old shows from its podcast platform in recent months, including cancelled shows whose archives were retained, amid an ongoing purge of dissent in the city under a draconian national security law. The deleted content includes the satirical news show "Headliner," which was axed in May 2020 after being criticised by top police officers for poking fun at their denials of violence against pro-democracy protesters during the 2019 protest movement.
