Marcos to yank PH tag as media no man’s land

SENATOR Ferdinand Marcos Jr. has vowed to help change the country’s image of being one of the most dangerous places in the world for journalists by introducing ways to improve the country’s justice system and putting an end to a “culture of impunity.”

In a speech delivered during the 63rd founding anniversary of the National Press Club (NPC) on Thursday night, Marcos cited a report of the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) that showed the Philippines is third in the rankings of the world’s most dangerous places for the press, next only to Iraq and Syria.
