Independence Evening Post

The Independence Evening Post (Chinese: 自立晚報) was a Chinese-language newspaper founded by Wu San-lien, which was published in Taiwan from 1947 to 2001.

[3][4] The paper backed the tangwai movement, maintaining a pro-independence stance for most of its history,[5][6] and was known for its honest coverage of the Zhongli incident.

[7][8] Shortly after martial law was lifted in 1987, the Independence Evening Post accomplished another milestone, becoming the first Taiwanese newspaper to send reporters to China.

[7] In the mid 1990s, Chen Cheng-chung acquired the publication after it began losing money, and shifted its editorial focus to support of the Pan-Blue Coalition.

Because the company failed to secure a controlling interest, the Hsiang Shan Group established a competitor, Power News.
