报章报道影音使团摄制队昨日到广华医院探望去年中遇袭受伤的警员朱振国，并为他拍摄特辑。
摄制队昨午一时到达医院后获朱太亲自迎接。据报朱太并非教徒，但间中会到教会聚会。摄制队送上了《天作之盒》福音电影VCD给朱太，该片主要讲述沙士期间殉职的谢婉雯医生的事迹，另外又送上慰问卡、祈祷公仔等。摄制队其后在病房逗留约两小时后离去。
朱振国去年巡逻期间截查一名青年时遭对方割伤颈部大动脉导致脑部缺氧，致今仍无法动弹，一直要卧床休养。涉案青年早前被判处六年监禁，而内地名医凌峰上周亦到港了解朱振国病情，并与本港医生商讨治疗方法。
You had a good intention
In my first response, I am just asking whether Media has the right to do so or not. This suspicion is based on the following:
1. In the past, when Media made a movie about someone's testimony, usually there is a "movie" version and a "true life" version, but not in this case.
2. As I asked some of my friends in Hong Kong, when Media's version is shown (which is extremely popular), none of Dr. Tse's family member is present which is not their usual practise at all. (If I am wrong, please let me know).
3. I saw the DVD produced about Dr. Tse's life and I know that the right is given to another organization instead of Media. When I asked, I heard that Media did ask for Dr. Tse's family the right but rejected by them. (Again if I am wrong, let me know.)
4. I also thought of if that is the case, why wouldn't Dr. Tse's family complaint about Media. As fellow Christians in Christ, we try not to raise up anything that will damage the Christian image in general. Dr. Tse's family might not provide Media with the materials they needed but based on the story already known, Media is still able to produce a movie and mixed with other materials during the SARS period.
From your responses, I can see that you have a good heart for what is right. I appreciate it, this forum is for us who wants to express our opinions and concerns and I thank Christian Times for providing this platform.
Once again, this is just my concern and I hope others will be aware of it and respect other's rights and watch out for the way Media do things.
They really knows how to gain popularity and then use the popularity to rasie fundings for them but then they have a very poor management of their funding and very poor planning. They are very skillful in using Christian terms such as "faith" and "love" and "glory of God" but these terms can be misused as well.
They issued an appeal in the beginning of March to rasie over 6 millions in about two weeks' time. So, what is the result, you only see the appeal but not the report. That is again their usual practise. When they made a "financial" statement on their newsletter, it is so brief that you don't know what actually happened. This kind of appeal is not just once but again and again in the past years and they are all "emergency" and they are very skillful in appealing to the conscience of the believers by using "the glory of God".
Without proper accountability and trustworthiness, I really had great concern for such a huge organization in Hong Kong.
Once again, if I am wrong, let me know.
信你一半先
另一半是謝醫生的家人真的不許他們拍這DVD?他們如何對你說？是因為家人自資拍了DVD?還是家人感到他們扭曲了謝醫生的生平？還是什麼？
Look before you jump
Did you read the news clip to which you are responding or defending? Did you look at the printing materials that is packed together with the DVD? The name of Dr. Tse is definitely mentioned in writing.
Am I right?
Well, if you can't tell the difference between the right of publishing a news on a newspaper and producing a DVD, then there is not much we can discuss. The best way for you to try out is to publish a DVD based on a famous person and then try to sell it. Then, may be you will be able to tell the difference. Or, the easier and more possible way is to ask someone who is in the media business, I am sure they can give you a very helpful answer.
不錯的討論
同樣拿一個人的消息與生平去「維生」，Hin認為有分別，我就認為沒分別。
不過，奇怪的是如果電影主角名不是謝醫生的全名，而角色又混合了另外一些沙士英魂的事蹟，那你覺得還是否需要特定之許可？
Can't tell the difference
Thanks for your amazing comparison.
I think you just can't tell the differences from different kinds of products.
For any newspaper to report a news about a famous artist is one thing but to publish a book or DVD based on the artist's life is another. Can you tell the difference? I don't think you could.
The artist will not go after the newspaper who reported the news but for sure he or she will go after the publisher if a book is published about his or her life and didn't get his or her permission. Can you tell the difference? I guess not!
時代論壇也拿來賣喎
時代論壇也要收了你我的錢才給你我看。
故我也不會質疑時代論壇，因為人是要食飯的。
Right?
If Media is going to make a DVD story about you and it will be for sale, do they have to ask for your permission to do so? Dr. Tse is the representative figure during the time of SARS, using her as the key character will definitely affected the sales of the DVD.
Reporting a news and making a product based on a person is two different stories, don't you agree?
For news, if you took my picture, do you have to ask my permission before you put it on the newspaper. I think you better ask those who are in the media about this.
If I am wrong, let me know. Thanks.
時代論壇有關謝醫生的報導
為何時代論壇有關謝醫生事蹟的報導需要其家人許可？
這個right是你自作的吧！
Do they have the right?
As I know, Dr. Tse's family has already produced a DVD based on her story and Media didn't obtained the right from the family to produce the DVD 天作之盒 based on Dr. Tse. It might reflected the spirit behind Dr. Tse's great act of courage and love but definitely not a documentary of Dr. Tse during the SARS period.
If I am wrong, please let me know. If I am right, please take note of how MEDIA is gaining their popularity and result.
