Hong Kong Daily News, a Chinese language newspaper, ceased publication as of Saturday.
After 50 years, the paper said that it had been losing money due to a change in reader habits and competition from free papers.
The Chai Wan-based newspaper was founded in 1959 and had a pro-Beijing stance. In 2013, it had a circulation of 70,000.
