Kahalagahan ng kalayaan sa pamamahayag, tatalakayin sa 'i Juander'

Pagdating sa usapin ng press freedom, wala na sigurong mas sasahol pa sa sinapit ng mga mamamayahag noong panahon ng Martial Law. Marami sa kanila ikinulong, nakaranas ng torture at pinatay. Ang photojournalist na si Lito Ocampo, batikang direktor na si Joel Lamangan at maging ang Kapusong mamamayahag na si Howie Severino ibabahagi ang kani-kanilang mapapait na karanasan noong panahon ng diktaturya.

Pero kung tutuusin, nong pang sakupin ng mga Kastila at Hapon ang Pilipinas, nahamon na rin ang karapatan ni Juan sa malayang pamamahayag. Kaya nga maraming mga pahayagan noon ang nag-i-imprenta nang patago. Samantalang may mga kagaya nina Graciano Lopez Jaena at mismong si Dr. Jose Rizal, sa ibang paraan idinaan ang panunuligsa. Paano nga ba nila ipinaglaban ang kanilang karapatan?

Samahan sina Susan Enriquez at Cesar Apolinario sa isang maselang talakayan. Tumutok sa I Juander ngayong Miyerkules, alas-otso nang gabi sa GMA News TV.

When we talk about Press Freedom, the experience of the journalist during Martial Law is incomparable.  Many of them were jailed, tortured and killed. Photojournalist Lito Ocampo, veteran director Joel Lamangan and even GMA’s veteran journalist Howie Severino share their experiences during the Martial Law.

But even during the colonization of the Spanish and Japanese in the Philippines, free press was already challenged. This resulted to some journalist to go underground and print information discreetly. There are also some Filipinos like Graciano Lopez Jaena and even Dr. Jose Rizal who write their attacks to the Government in a different manner. How were they able to fight for the rights during the time?

Join Susan Enriquez and Cesar Apolinario as they tackle a serious matter. Please watch I Juander this Wednesday, eight o’clock in the evening on GMA News TV!
