Nine years of working for CNN Philippines started and ended on the website and our social media pages to deliver content that is fair, accurate, and balanced.
Erased just like that.
Allow me to grieve this loss.
At least two candidates prove CNNPH did not release questions in advance, showing pages of notes they took during the live event.
Robredo and Ong share they wrote talk points without assurance they will be asked to answer the questions.
Sa huli, hindi lang kaming mga empleyado ang talo, kung hindi ang taumbayan. Nabawasan tayo ng isang maghahayag nang malaya, magmamatyag nang masinsinan, at kukwestiyon nang walang takot.

The Philippines stands to lose its succeeding vaccine allocation from COVAX after this mayor — a non-health worker — received his AstraZeneca shot.
WHO strongly recommend using limited doses on medical frontliners, then elderlies, then those with comorbidities.

Here's why Jensen and The Flips' "apology" is problematic:
1. "We stand united" - You shouldn't have your band member's back when he forced himself on a woman.
2. "We will get through this" - You don't get to play the victim. Your non-apologetic apology is not welcome here.
Side story: For the CNNPH digital news team, we didn't know the exact questions and which candidates will be asked to answer them to avoid leakage.
We identified, assigned, and wrote the stories as it was airing live. So kahit kami, walang undue advantage. 😊
DOH debunks the Facebook post of National Task Force Against COVID-19 advisor Ted Herbosa, brands the graphics as fake news.

Even the DOH warns of possible implications of allowing one politician to breach the vaccine priority line: Giving the vaccines to non-healthcare workers when not all HCWs have been vaccinated will jeopardize the succeeding doses from COVAX.

The verified YouTube account on Twitter says it has terminated the account of televangelist Apollo Quiboloy for violating community guidelines.
This comes after a user flagged that the account is posting videos despite Quiboloy's standing FBI arrest warrant.

closes down, I look back on my 10-year journey — from the 25-year-old girl hired to publish the news articles of non-techie writers to leading an integral part of the newsroom.
All 400+ of us may be out of jobs, but I'm certain that even outside the newsroom, we will keep telling the story of the Filipino in our own little ways.

Quiboloy has been on FBI's most wanted list for sex trafficking charges since February 2022, but he has been actively posting updates on his social media accounts and the accounts of his church and media company SMNI News.

Monkeypox symptoms typically include fever, rashes, swollen lymph nodes. Lesions tend to be more concentrated on the face, palms of the hand, and soles of the feet.
DOH and WHO advise limiting sexual contact to minimize possible exposure to the virus.

A guy friend told me he felt terrible when he was groped by a woman during a gig. He said it sounds unlikely because it's viewed by some men as an ego boost. He asked when an act is considered harassment. May this serve as a reminder that sexual harassment also happens to men.

Data shows only 91 out of 5M fully vaccinated with Sinovac had breakthrough infections, while 24 of the 908K who got AZ caught the virus. One person who got Pfizer also contracted the virus.
No recorded breakthrough cases w/ Sputnik V, Moderna, Janssen.
