The Liberty Times is a newspaper published in Taiwan in Traditional Chinese. Founded by Lin Rong-San, it is published by the Liberty Times Group, which also publishes the English language newspaper the Taipei Times. The newspaper was first published on April 17, 1980, as Liberty Daily, before adopting its current name in 1987.
It is one of the four major newspapers in Taiwan, the other three being the Apple Daily, the China Times, and the United Daily News. While the United Daily News is regarded as taking an editorial line that supports unification, the Liberty Times is thought to take a Pan Green pro-independence political stance.
