As Hong Kong remembers the bloody crackdown on protesters in Beijing on June 4, 1989, a feisty tabloid weekly born in its aftermath has been shuttered.
The recent move by Hong Kong's Next Magazine to cease publication marks the end of an era and the fall of a fiercely anti-Beijing publication that refused to adapt to the city's changing political climate. Its demise is also evidence of how a once-leading print publication can fail to cope with the disruption of the digital age and social media.
