Between entertainment, journalism, and public discussion, true crime podcasts have emerged as a distinctive narrative space worldwide, also in contemporary Chinese digital culture. Rather than simply recounting criminal cases, these podcasts actively shape how violence is narrated, interpreted, and emotionally consumed. At the same time, the genre is largely driven by amateur creators rather than professional journalists or legal experts, raising important questions about public trust, moral authority, and audience engagement.On 24 March, Emily Tsang (MJ 2008), head of Young Post at the South China Morning Post, and Tom Grundy (MJ 2017), director and founder of the Hong Kong Free Press, hosted our students for newsroom visits.
