Photon Media is a news website reporting on Hong Kong news abroad. Founded in April 2023 by former Hong Kong journalists including Shirley Leung from Apple Daily.[1] Photon Media is based in Taiwan.[2][3] The advisory team includes Mark Clifford, former editor-in-chief of the South China Morning Post;[4] journalist Ching Cheong; Yi-zheng Joseph Lian, former director of HK Stand News[4] and Josh Rogin from the Washington Post.[5] In August 2025, Shirley Leung and Edward Li announced that Photon Media and the UK-basked Chaser News would merge into the online news outlet Pulse HK.[6]
