Pundits suggested that CR was bowing to political pressure as its broadcasting licence was up for renewal next year.

Billy Fung confirmed that the leaked recording was consistent with his recollection and with the notes he took during the meeting. 858:
Council members Lo Chung-mau and Arthur Li accused Fung of lying about the discussions. Leonie Ki, another council member, alleged that Fung's English language proficiency was so low that he could not understand what was being discussed during the council meetings.
