Thirty-Seven Years On, a Wound That Never Closed
A former star of Chinese state television turns her camera on a Taiwanese journalist wounded in the Tiananmen crackdown — and on the limits of what witnesses could say at the time.

TVBS is a Taiwanese cable television operator established in September 1993. Originally founded as a joint venture between Hong Kong’s Television Broadcasts Limited (電視廣播有限公司) and Taiwan’s Era Group (年代集團), it became fully Taiwan-owned in March 2023 when consumer electronics manufacturer HTC Corporation acquired full ownership from its remaining stakeholders. The network currently operates five channels, including TVBS News, TVBS Entertainment, and the main TVBS channel.
