2024 Elections: TPP supporters protest media outside NCCBy Shelley Shan / Staff reporterMore than 500 Taiwan People’s Party (TPP) supporters last night gathered outside the National Communications Commission’s (NCC) offices in Taipei to protest the regulator’s inaction on SET TV’s alleged illegal investment in the multiple systems operator Homeplus Digital. Protesters also accused the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) of intervening in the establishment of the Mirror News channel. The TPP earlier said that television news channels were aligned with the DPP or the Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT), and are used to attack political rivals. Protest slogans are projected on the National Communications Commission building in Taipei during a demonstration last night.
