Time to adopt fact-checking journalism in PH

This Saturday, I will focus attention on fact-checking journalism, a new movement that has gathered steam and popularity in many countries, as a tool for advancing accountability in public life and enhancing the service of the media.

I believe that recent developments and trends in our country have made the adoption of fact-checking journalism compelling and imperative. The sooner Filipino journalists and organizations (like the Manila Times) subscribe to the movement, the better for our public life and our society.
