〔記者楊堯茹／台北報導〕路透引述知情人士和一份台灣國安備忘錄披露，中國已向台灣具影響力的搖滾樂團五月天施壓，要他們在下個月台灣大選前發表一中言論。對此，侯辦發言人王敏旭發布新聞稿回應，卻被涉外人士踢爆，英文版的新聞稿暗指路透刻意散布假訊息。
涉外人士指出，侯辦的中文新聞稿結尾僅表示，「如果是外界刻意傳播的假訊息，我們也呼籲大陸相關單位儘速說明、釐清此事。」
不過提供給外媒的英文新聞稿卻暗藏玄機，涉外人士強調，新聞稿末段以假設語氣指出，路透報導若是刻意散布假訊息（If, however, the Reuters report is the deliberate spread of false information），企圖影響台灣選民，「我們呼籲中國當局發表聲明，並建議路透回頭檢視其消息來源（…and suggest that Reuters better question its sources.）。」
涉外人士也說，侯辦發給中文媒體與英文媒體的新聞稿內容大不同，英文版暗指路透刻意散佈假訊息，不僅傷害外媒信譽，更有與中國聯手對新聞媒體施壓的嫌疑。
侯辦英文、中文新聞稿全文：
Hou Yu-Ih Campaign Office Spokesperson Wang Min-Hsu pointed out that Mayday is not only a well-known band from Taiwan, but is also well-known throughout the world. Mayday's music enjoys incomparable popularity, transcends generations within the global Mandarin-speaking community, and has played a significant role in increasing Taiwan's worldwide presence.
Wang Min-Hsu said although a Reuters report alleges that the Mainland sought a political statement from Mayday, Mainland authorities have yet to officially confirm this. If true, the Hou campaign strongly condemns such actions. The Mainland should not force musicians to take a political stance and music and art should remain free from political interference. Not only will fans reject such interference, but it will also seriously harm the feelings of people in Taiwan and does nothing to enhance cross-strait exchanges. If, however, the Reuters report is the deliberate spread of false information to influence voters in Taiwan, we urge relevant Mainland authorities to promptly issue a clarification and suggest that Reuters better question its sources.
侯友宜競選辦公室發言人王敏旭指出，五月天不只是台灣知名樂團，更是世界知曉的音樂天團，五月天的音樂更是全球華人圈跨世代的共同語言，具有高知名度。五月天的音樂沒有國界，更促成許多外國朋友知道台灣、認識台灣。
王敏旭說，現在有路透社報導指出中國大陸要五月天政治表態，該則訊息仍未被中國官方證實，但如果屬實，侯辦強烈譴責此行為，因為中國大陸不應該逼音樂人對政治立場表態，音樂藝術不應受到政治干擾。否則不只歌迷無法認同，更嚴重傷害台灣人民情感，對兩岸交流沒有任何好處。如果是外界刻意傳播的假訊息，我們也呼籲大陸相關單位儘速說明、釐清此事。
