Jasper Becker (born 1956〔http://guidewhois.com/2011/01/jasper-becker-biographybibliographybooks-reviewpublicationscareeremail-address/〕) is a British author, commentator and journalist who has spent two decades as a foreign correspondent mostly in China.〔http://us.macmillan.com/author/jasperbecker〕 == Journalism == In 1995, he joined the staff of the Hong Kong-based ''South China Morning Post''.〔http://www.speakersolutions.com.au/speakers/jasper-becker.asp?cat=8〕 He was later promoted to the senior position of Beijing bureau chief, which meant he was in charge of all mainland content. In 2002, he lost his job, in an experience he writes about in a ''Washington Post'' column headlined "Why I Was Fired in Hong Kong." 〔Jasper Becker, “Why I Was Fired in Hong Kong,” ''The Washington Post'', 4 May 2002.〕〔http://www.taiwandc.org/wp-2002-08.htm〕 Given his often critical views of China, his abrupt removal was considered by some to be a sign of deteriorating press freedoms in Hong Kong.〔http://www.nytimes.com/2002/04/30/world/world-briefing-asia-hong-kong-fired-journalist-sees-fear-of-china.html〕〔Philip P. Pan, “Journalist is Fired after China Remarks,” ''The Washington Post'', 5 May 2002.〕 Becker’s dismissal for “insubordination” was widely reported in the international media. He was sacked after commenting that the paper was restricting his reporting and downplaying coverage on AIDS and labour disturbances on the Mainland. 〔http://reutersinstitute.politics.ox.ac.uk/fellowships/journalist-fellows/prev-journalist/07-08/joyce-lau.html〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jasper Becker」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
