- Summary:
- An interview with Maria Ressa, a journalist in the Philippines. Ressa details the oppressive regime of President Rodrigo Duterte that threatens violence against the press and creates a constant sense of danger. Ressa was named the Time magazine person of the year for her reporting on Duterte's aggressive drug war, under threats of prison and violence. She has been arrested twice. Ressa says she will not be intimidated out of her battle for truth in the Philippines. Salvador Panelo, a presidential spokesman claims that criticisms of Duterte's drug war are exaggerated. Ressa's website has reported Duterte's administration has killed over 20,000 people in the drug war, while the administration claim only 5,000. In the last 3 years, a dozen journalists in the Philippines have been shot or beaten to death, and Ressa has been dismissed as "fake news" by Duterte. Includes an interview with Salvador Panelo, a spokesman for Duterte.
