I should point out that Liberty Times is probably the highest circulated paper in Taiwan, it aint Charlie Hedo (though if you actually read it's opinions and comics, you might not be able to tell the difference.) and the people in this DPP admin is largely the same group of folks in the Chen admin.

To add on, the most blatant case of the press attempting to create out of thin air shit to help the party they're backing, is the case of the heavily pro DPP Liberty Times, clearly colluding with Chen Shui Bian, the former president, where the Liberty times reported on an headline exclusive report for quite a while, of a top secret 南線專案 where the government funneled money off the records to help and bribe Australian politicians to our side.

It turned out of course, that this was totally bogus, as Chen later admitted in court that this was a pure cover for his corruption. Not after Australia actually launched an investigation to see if their politicians were taking bribes from us obviously.

The Liberty times reporter that reported this was promoted and she's currently the chief editor, and the Ma admin never really fined / attacked the paper for this blatant crime, you can wiki the Chinese wiki or google about 南線專案 if you want to check if I'm bullshitting here.
