Next Media is owned by Jimmy Lai, a Hong Kong-based businessman reviled by China for his anti-communist views. He and Tsai were both suitors for the China Times Group in 2008. Unlike the mainland, Taiwan has a free press, and the two publications that Tsai and his associates sought to buy have gained a reputation for editorial independence and a commitment to Taiwan remaining independent of China, which sees the island as renegade province.
