Emcees of Hong Kong Television Broadcasts Limited (TVB), Cheung Wai Tsz and Nicole Leung, wore yellow shirts in TV show, Scoop, to implicitly support umbrella revolution, HK Apply Daily reported on Saturday.
At the beginning, the show presented a selection of an interview with Dayo Wang, Hong Kong's famous and popular artist, who supports "Occupy Central." Wang implied in the interview that, he would participate in the peace protest after his talk show. Scoop did not delete the content about the pro-protest as it did before; it also presented the whole selection.

The show later brought the message of keeping the faith with reporting a series of other related programs. The introduction of TVB's another show, Guardians of Life 2, edited the words, related to the topic, "keeping faith." For instance, "Doctors do not only treat illness but hearts," "Give them a chance to rewrite the future," "overcome the difficulties no matter how hard they are," etc. "Let everyone know that, at every moment, in this world, different stories about guarding life are happening," said the emcee of Guardians of Life 2, Hong Kong's popular actor Lawrence Ng Kai Wah.
In addition, another emcee, Kelly Cheung, who introducing Pearl Tonight, in the Scoop show, also put her fist up to encourage the, "Occupy Central" people. "Except for these participants (of another program), lots of other people are fighting for their goals. Let's cheer for them." It looked like, everything was planned for supporting the umbrella revolution.
Avoid talking about "Occupy Central"
Reporter from Apple Daily phone interviewed Scoop's emcees, Leung and Cheung. Leung prevaricated and said, "ah...I don't have any response. My company gave me the shirts. Don't talk this. I am sorry."
"No. It was arranged by my company's clothing department. I don't want to be polarized. Everyone is so heated with passion right now. I just want to say, I want Hong Kong to be good," Cheung said when asked if she wore yellow to support "Occupy Central."
Even though Cheung did not speak too much on the phone interview, she supported Dayo Wang in her Sina Weibo and said, the current protest in Hong Kong is relying on political turbulence to cultivate moral integrity.
