                    [Title] => Journalists’ group: Time to fight back
                    [Summary] => BAGUIO CITY — One of the country’s largest journalists’ groups called on all media practitioners to "fight back" as it lamented the government’s ineffectual efforts to curb the killing of journalists.


"Today, we say enough is enough. We have condemned enough. We have issued statements enough. We have marched in the streets and called government’s attention enough," National Union of Journalists of the Philippines (NUJP) director and spokesman Jose Torres said.

A lot of local journalists were surprised when they heard on television yesterday that several flights to the Caticlan, Kalibo and Dumaguete airports were canceled because of ashes spewed by Kanlaon Volcano on Negros island.

Amazingly, we learned that the foreign wire services also gave the same report without any definitive word from Phivolcs.

The New York-based Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) has identified the Philippines as the most murderous country for journalists since 2000, followed by Iraq, Colombia, Bangladesh and Russia.

Based on five years of death records beginning Jan. 1, 2000, CPJ said a majority of those killed on duty did not die in crossfire or while covering dangerous assignments but were hunted down and killed in retaliation for their work.
