We stand with Len.
No to red-tagging.
[Statement] Justice for Percy Lapid
The National Union of Journalists of the Philippines condemns the killing of broadcaster Percy Mabasa — also known as Percy Lapid — in Las Piñas last night.
The killing shows that journalism remains a dangerous profession in the country. That the incident took place in Metro Manila indicates how brazen the perpetrators were, and how authorities have failed to protect journalists as well as ordinary citizens from harm.
Lapid, host of "Lapid Fire" on DWBL 1242, had been critical of the Duterte administration as well as some personalities in and policies of the Marcos administration.
Among his most recent commentaries on his YouTube channel was on the dangers of red-tagging, particularly the most recent harassment of Manila Judge Marlo Magdoza-Malagar. He had also commented on the security risks of Philippine Offshore Gaming Operators and on historical distortion of Martial Law.
Mabasa is the second journalist to be killed under Marcos Jr. administration. Radio broadcaster Rey Blanco was stabbed to death in Mabinay, Negros Oriental last Sept. 18, 2022.
We condole with Lapid's family, including his brother and veteran journalist Roy Mabasa.
We call on the public to join us in condemning yet another murder of a journalist. We call on the Philippine National Police to hold the perpetrators accountable.

As journalists for the alternative media, we are often asked how we are able to practice ethical journalism. What are the factors that influence our reporting and framing of news? Are we objective? Bulatlat's managing editor, also newly-elected NUJP secretary general, tells us how, and most importantly, why.
What does it really mean to be fair as journalists?
New year ushers in another opportunity to work towards genuine change. Looking back at how our 2020 fared, the journalist in me tells me one thing: this year is the year we demand for good journalism.
As women's rights advocates hold the 16 Days of Activism against Gender-based Violence, we focus on how media portrays domestic violence and how women are more vulnerable now with mobility restrictions in place due to the pandemic. Joining us this week is a good friend, journalism lecturer, and a women's rights advocate, Edz dela Cruz.
As journalists, it is important to understand what humanitarian principles are and how it can help us frame our reports. Do we stop at saying thank you? Or do we hold the duty bearers to account for gross neglect? Also up on Spotify: https://spoti.fi/33jeiDm
Correct, timely, and verified information is very much important whenever disaster strikes. Journalist must think on their feet to point out the obvious, to not parrot lies and false narratives, and to amplify the voices of the marginalized. And while understanding the science behind a natural hazard is definitely a plus point – that’s not everything about disaster reporting.
The biggest scam that many journalists fell victims to? No, it's not disinformation. It's the long-running myth that there is "no math in journalism." In this episode, our former intern and math-loving journalist Dawn Peña shares her love for numbers and friendly practical Math-tinik for journalists.
