Uson said in her request: “The undersigned, pursuant to her mandate for social media respectfully requests clarification on a member of the Malacañang Press Corp (sic). Rappler, an online publication that has no counterpart print or broadcast arm is technically considered social media. This should fall under the rules on accreditation by my office."
"In view of the foregoing, I respectfully request that Rappler be reclassified and moved from Malacanang Press Corp (sic) to Social Media.”
Misinformed, misplaced
Uson's request is misplaced on 3 counts:
1) Rappler is an independent private media company. Because the Constitution guarantees freedom of the press (Article III, Section 4), government does not have the power to regulate independent media.
2) The Malacañang Press Corps (MPC) is an independent group unattached to any government agency. It is neither under government control nor under the supervision of the Presidential Communications Operations Office (PCOO).
MPC by-laws are explicit on accreditation and cover online news organizations like Rappler. Section 2 under "Qualifications for MPC Membership" states: "For internet-based media, the reporter must represent a website affiliated with a duly-recognized print/radio/TV agency, or established online news organization with regular deployment of personnel in major beats."
3) The PCOO's Interim Social Media Practitioner Accreditation covers only individuals and not news organizations. Section 5 of the PCOO's Department Order 15 is categorical: "Social Media accreditation shall be issued to a Filipino Citizen who is at least eighteen (18) years of age, with not less than five thousand (5,000) followers in any social media platform."
This clearly does not cover Rappler, Incorporated, which is a registered media corporation. – Rappler.com
Lakas maka feeling under nya lahat si mocha
ReplyDeleteObjectively speaking, Rappler is not considered as mainstream media.
DeleteHaving Rappler to be re-classified is something we can ponder.
1:36 isa ka pa. Magsama kayo ni Mocha. Objectively speaking my a$$.
Delete1:36 they are mainstream...just not printed. And even if we say they are not mainstream, they're still not social media. Not mainstream and social media are not the same.
DeletePonder ponder ka pa dyan. At sino mag re classify mga DDS?
DeleteTo those who are not thinking, here's the definition of mainstream media.
DeleteTraditional forms of mass communication, such as newspapers, television, and radio (as opposed to the Internet), regarded collectively.
Agree with 1:36.
DeleteDo yourself a favor by doing your research first before these nonsense comments.
Wala nang kredibilidad ang rappler. Puro sira lang kay Duterte ang focus. Nakalimutan na ni Maria Ressa yung fake news nila tungkol sa nangyari sa RW? Ipinagpilitan na ISIS daw hahaha
DeleteNakalimutan mo din 5:43 na yung mga reports nila ay hindi galing sa kanili. Anong ipinagpilitan ang pinagsasasabi mo. Ang problema ng DDS ay selective sila sa gusto nilang paniwalaan. Kalkalin nyo ang rappler para makita nyong hindi sila bias.
DeleteNaku Mocha si Maria Ressa pa kinalaban mo. CNN Int'l reporter yan dati. Delakidad at respetadong member of the media.
ReplyDeletebaka noon.
DeleteWalang ginagalang yang si Mocha. She's bringing so much shame to this govt. Ano na mga ka-DDS.
Delete12:36 hanggang ngayon.
DeleteMore so now 12:36 AM. Only those with integrity can dare to expose this abusive government.
Delete2:17 gising na sa reyalidad.
Delete2:17 has been na cya or maybe never was...
DeleteMga kaDDS yan o, si mocha, simbolo ng kung ano si duterte at kayo. Hahahaahah
ReplyDeleteTrulala. mga taga sunod ni Mocha yung mga di nag iisip.
Delete10:13 kayo na ang matalino at kami ang mangmang. ito talaga ang inggit
DeleteMga panatiko wag ninyo ikahiya si mocha.
ReplyDeleteWinner!
DeleteSakto besh. Nilulunok nila kasi kakampi. LOL
DeletePower tripping to the highest level! LODI
ReplyDeleteNangaasar lang yan si mocha. Alam nya naman di pwede
Delete@1:48, sure ka na di nya alam? I doubt it, given her past performances.
DeleteDapat kasi yung nilalagay sa gobyerno alam ang batas eh. Para di napapahiya
ReplyDeletemas lalo sana sa mga senador na magkakaso kahit “allegedly” lang ang sinabi. lmao
DeleteMukhang pati si andanar nagiging under na ni mocha

ReplyDeleteGrabe powertripping ng babaeng yan porket may nasasandalan. Nakakagigil hay! Sumbong sa boss nyang si Paandanar na isa pang sapak.
ReplyDeletePress corp. Facepalm.
ReplyDeleteAng problema kasi sa gobyerno na to ng dahil sa utang na loob binigyan ng position mga unqualified ban katulad ni Mocha. At dahil malaki ang natulong ng Mochacha na yan para mauto mga tao at manalo din Digong, feeling nya may K na sya diktahan mga ns govt. At bakit kailangan na mga kaDDS lang nila dapat pinapakinggan ng gobyerno feeling nila sila lang may karapatan dahil binoto nila di Digong. Kawawang Pilipinas yan and the best and the brightest.
ReplyDeleteparang kayo lang nung panahon nyo, juice ko sino ba pinagmamalaki mo. kindly give me one name who did a good job in a span of 6 years. crickets
DeleteExcuse me 5:01PM,
Deletemas kawawa ang Pilipinas nung mga naunang administrasyon.
Deletesi 7:42 walang ibang masabi lol
DeleteDi pala ako informed na social media na ang rappler. Maka register nga baka makita ko mga friends ko dun
ReplyDeleteHahahaha
DeleteRegisteed media corp daw. lol. Di ba financial instituion ang Rappler accordig sa SEC?
ReplyDeleteKAYA NGA. NAKAKALITO TULOY.
DeleteKung ganiyan lang din and points na niraise ng Rappler, pasok di ang social media bloggers sa gusto nila. Ang punto ni Mocha, walang print and broadcast counterparts ang Rappler which is correct! News org na hanggang online lang is equivalent to social media org status.
ReplyDeleteAteng napaghahalata ka na pro Mocha :). Paki basahin mo nga ulit ang punto or better go and read the Law in reference to this issue :) Peace kapatid!
DeletePlease read point number 2 again, please.
Delete"For internet-based media, the reporter must represent a website affiliated with a duly-recognized print/radio/TV agency, or established online news organization with regular deployment of personnel in major beats."
Emphasis on "OR"- they only have to fulfill one condition from the two listed, and they did fulfill the last one.
Also, please read number 3-
social media practitioners pertain to individuals, not organizations.
Hope this helps. :)
1:11 ok ka lang. Alam mo ang meaning ng digital media ha? Like yahoo news or google news? Meron pang print and broadcast equivalent ang yahoo news. Napaghahalata ka na follower ni Mocha please check the difference between social media and digital media.
DeleteSakit ng bangs ko sayo 1:11. So social media bloggers lang pala ang Huffington Post, Yahoo news, Google News?
DeleteI mean meron bang print and broadcast equivalent and google and yahoo news wala din naman ah.
Deletesana lahat ng followers ni ateng mocha nagagawi dito at makisali comment sections. dami siguro magigising.
DeleteBeh basa ka may “OR” 2:42
DeleteVery very very wrong. Many news organization don’t have print versions. This is 2017, a lot of newspapers don’t print anymore, just online renderings. Wake up.
Delete2:42 yabang mo, hindi ka naman matalino
DeleteShame on you Mocha! Isa ka sa mga kalawang ng present administration.
ReplyDelete114 kalawang, hahaha
Delete@8:38 sarcastic bang tawa mo or you just don't know what kalawang is? Confused ako Baks, if you agree with 1:14 or not.
DeleteKaloka - Tagalog translation kay maria ressa
ReplyDeleteAng init talaga ng dugo nila sa Rappler. Haha.
ReplyDeleteAkala ni Mocha Uson, social media ang Rappler kasi pwede kang magpost ng comments dun thru FB.
ReplyDeleteHoy Mocha! Hindi social media ang rappler as much as hindi blog yung facebook account mo!
This! Hahahaha
DeleteYes. Hindi Blog ang fb acct ni Mocha Uson.
DeleteWinner!
DeleteIt is high time provisions of the law must be upgraded to keep up with the times. Print and broadcast aren't just the only means to inform and entertain now. Everyone's online already.
ReplyDeleteJuicecolored :( naghahasik ng lagim to
ReplyDeleteNakakahiya!
ReplyDeleteIto ang mga tuta ni duterte, kakahiya.
ReplyDeleteAyan na po ang mga binoto niyo.. Mahalin niyo yang si Mocha kase yan ang nilagay ng binoto niyo na Presidente.. :)
ReplyDeleteThis sorry excuse for a government official needs to stay on her (crooked) lane. Si Maria Ressa et al pa ang gusto nyang underin? Nahiya naman ang CNN masyado sa yo Mocha! Somebody get this chick another gig!
ReplyDeleteMocha Uson pls lng wag si Maria Ressa at Rappler. Mas maganda pa ang credibility ng Rappler kaysa sa pagmumukha mo haha
ReplyDeletecredibility as what? hahaha gising gising din.
DeleteMocha needs to undergo OJT in mainstream media para malaman nya ang tunay na buhay nang media... ilusyon lang kasi sya nang ilusyon... ilusyonada! hahaha
ReplyDeleteano? ikaw nalang mag OJT, bagay sa intelligence mo
DeleteAgree 1:39! Bigyan ng crash course in media si Ateng Mocha!
Deletekung dito sa UAE yan, lahat ng aatake sa governments, institutions man or individual, print man or verbal, ay kulong for life, and needless to say, down agad agad ang website. kaya ang tourism ng UAE is flourishing...walang pag asa dyan sa Pinas!!!!! grrrrrr
ReplyDeleteUna sa lahat, huwag mo ikumpara ang pamamahala ng UAE sa Admin ni Duterte. Hindi valid ang argumento mo. Kung maayos ang pamamalakad, wala naman kukuda.
DeleteSo yan ang gusto mo walang freedom of expression?
Deletesa'yong sayo na ang flourishing tourism mo. proud pinoy ako dahil sa freedom of speech natin, na may 'say' tayo sa nangyayari sa bansa natin at hindi parang tuta na sunod-sunuran sa amo. pinapakain ka nga, maganda tinutulugan mo, super love ka ng amo mo, pero at the end of the day, hindi ka pa din tinuturing na tao na may individual wants and needs and aspirations. kung kuntento ka sa ganun, more powers to you, deserve mo ang UAE. pero para sa mga pinoy na mahal ang kalayaan, na kahit may struggle sa buhay eh ayos lang kasi pangarap mo nman inaatim mo at walang kumokontrol sa bawat kilos, hindi para sa amin ang ganung gobyerno.
Deletefreedom of speach is not absolute.
Deleteflourishing economy vs freedom of speech, women's rights
Deletetake your flourishing tourism and don't return to the Phils.
