‘Responsible journalism means complying with the law’ – NPC

THE National Press Club (NPC) on Wednesday sided with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on the revocation of the corporate papers of online news outfit Rappler, saying there was no threat to the exercise of press freedom and freedom of expression.

In a statement, the NPC agreed with the findings of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that online news platform Rappler, Inc. violated the strict constitutional provision on 100-percent control and ownership of mass media.
