A senior executive of Now News has tendered her resignation, RTHK understands.

The news department’s vice president, Annie Cheng, texted her colleagues on Monday morning about her decision.

“The time has come,” Cheng wrote, adding she had chosen to “let things go” and “preserve the beautiful and good.”

She praised her colleagues for maintaining their professionalism during what she described as “the most stormy and rainy” year for the media industry.
