What sickens me are those political re-electionists who are riding on the bandwagon chiming out their support for Press Freedom and calling out to “authorities” to be humane! Quite frankly, so many people easily raise the banner of Press Freedom as if Freedom of the Press was just about Libel or censorship. There are sensational stories such as the Inquirer and Rappler but there are also “Silent movies” where we never hear a sound and never see the media outfit ever again. We fight the same battles and should not be fighting or bashing each other. By then it was too late and it would take over a decade to regain what was lost.
