Since August 10th, I really have been seeing more people buying and carrying on copies of Hong Kong's leading pro-democracy Chinese language newspaper, and pages and copies of Apple Daily on display and available to read at a number of restaurants and cafes. In addition, the ads in the newspaper have not only exponentially increased in number in recent weeks but the bulk of them also are of the kind that one doesn't see in other newspapers. To see what I mean, just take a look at the following examples (all of which appeared in hard copies of this Monday's Apple Daily):-

Some place here in United States has been looking into getting rid of bail system. It favor the rich.
Hi peppylady --
I don't think the bail system in Hong Kong favors the rich as much as the non-granting of bail would leave some arrestees more open to abuse by the police.
