Justice still a far cry for Ampatuan massacre victims
A month has gone by since at least 57 people, at least 31 of them media workers, were slaughtered in the hills of Ampatuan town in Maguindanao.
Today, all over our benighted land, we gather to commemorate the fallen and recommit ourselves to the cause of ensuring justice for them.

The National Union of Journalists of the Philippines condemns the abduction Monday of 40 persons including four of our colleagues who were accompanying the wife of a town mayor in Maguindanao province to cover her filing of her husband’s certificate of candidacy.
NUJP Baguio-Benguet Chapter Statement
November 23 was a dark day for the media community, civil society and the Philippine nation as a whole.
The violent incident in Maguindanao did not only desecrate our continuing struggle for press freedom but it desecrated all levels of democracy such as right to life.
