Compared to his immediate predecessor Rodrigo Duterte, Marcos appears to be friendlier towards the press. Though Marcos has been saying the right things about press freedom, he has been less accessible to journalists than past Philippine Presidents.
Philippine journalists continue to be harassed.
Alternative news websites like Bulatlat and Pinoy Weekly have been blocked for 2 years by the National Telecommunications Commission.
Journalist Frenchie Mae Cumpio is still in jail after 4 years on specious charges.
Four journalists have been killed under Marcos’ term as president – Rey Blanco, Percy Lapid, Cresenciano Bunduquin, and Juan Jumalon.
