“I hate the media. I’m always trying to lose as less as I can,” pahayag ni Alcaraz.

Hindi naman nagpahuli si Djokovic nang ipamalas nito ang solidong depensa matapos ibalik ang palo ni Alcaraz sa pagitan ng kaniyang mga paa.

“I have to say that for me it is always a pleasure to play against him. He is indeed one of those players that make you play harder and he really deserves the win,” wika ni Djokovic.

“One shot can change the game, one point can change the flow of the game,” pahayag ni Alcaraz. “Every time that I’m able to feel that aura from him on the other side of the net, for me it’s a privilege,” dagdag pa nito.

Pinabagsak ng rising star player na si Carlos Alcaraz ang beteranong si Novak Djokovic na  10-times champion (2–6, 6–2, 6–3, 7–5), sa kasagsagan ng 2026 Australian Open Final na idinaos sa Melbourne, Austraklia nitong ika-1 ng Pebrero.

Sa huli, hindi sapat na ituring lamang na extracurricular ang campus journalism. Kung tunay na layunin ang paghubog ng mga mag-aaral na mapanuri, mulat, at may malasakit sa katotohanan, nararapat itong isama sa araw-araw na pagkatuto sa loob ng silid-aralan—sapagkat ang campus journalism ay hindi lamang gawain, kundi isang kulturang dapat yakapin.

Kulturang

“Grades ang basehan ng kaalaman ng bata. Kapag mataas ang grades mo, ibig sabihin matalino ka,” saad pa ng kaibigan ko. Ito umano ang sumusukat sa kaalaman at kakayahan ng kabataan.

“Extra lang naman ‘yan, hindi naman importante,” giit pa nila. Doon ko napagtanto na kaya pala nakasara ang kanilang isipan ay dahil ito ay gawaing labas sa klase.

“Ano ba ang campus journalism?” Iyan ang palaging tanong ng mga kaklase ko sa akin. Sa tuwing pinapaliwanag ko sa kanila nang maayos ang tunay na halaga nito, “ah, hindi naman pala gano’n ka importante,”

MANUNULAT NG KATOTOHANAN Boses ay huwag pigilan!

Ang campus journalism ay hindi palamuti ng paaralan. Ito ay salamin nito—buo, malinaw, at kung minsan ay nakakasakit. Ngunit mas mabuti ang masakit na katotohanan kaysa sa maganda ngunit kulang na larawan.

Sa huli, sa bawat panulat na nagtataglay ng katotohanan, ang boses ng campus journalism ay hindi dapat pigilan kundi dapat palakasin at pakinggan.

Nakadidismayang isiping ang pagsulat ay kailangan munang dumaan sa pagdadalawang-isip at takot na baka may magalit sa artikulong ginawa bago ito mailathala. Sa bawat pagsulat ng isang campus journalist, kasabay nitong hinuhubog ang boses ng buong paaralan. Ngunit ano pa ang silbi nito kung nililimitahan ang pagpapahayag ng saloobin dahil sa pag-iisip na baka mapagalitan ang mga batang mamamahayag?

Sa gitna ng mga isyu tungkol sa press freedom limits, binigyang-diin ni Prodigo ang konsepto ng Responsible Journalism, bagaman may kalayaang magsulat, hindi dapat lumalampas sa limitasyon ang mga mamamahayag sa pamamagitan ng pag-iwas sa pagiging masyadong agresibo o bastos sa pagpapahayag ng saloobin. “Dito papasok ‘yung responsible journalism. We can write, but we should not go beyond the limit. Dapat hindi masyadong vulgar o harsh,” dagdag niya.  Dagdag pa niya, ang balanseng ito sa pagitan ng kalayaan at responsibilidad ang nakikitang paraan upang mapanatili ang tiwala ng mga stakeholders at maitaas ang engagement rate sa mga susunod na taon.

EPS DepEd RXII:

ni Prodigo

MAHAHALAGANG DETALYE: Naging hamon ni Dave C. Prodigo, sa mga kabataang mamamahayag  tungkol sa ugnayan ng paaralan at lokalidad, sa isinagawang press briefing bilang parte ng NSPC 2026. Ayon kay Prodigo, ang tunay na tagumpay ng isang campus journalist ay wala sa mga tropeyo ng NSPC, kundi sa kakayahan nitong maging boses ng katotohanan, at koneksiyonn sa pagitan ng paaralan at ng komunidad Nanawagan din siya sa mga guro at tagapayo na embody-in ang kultura ng CJ upang palaging handa ang mga bata na i-dokumento hindi lamang ang mga kaganapan sa silid-aralan, kundi pati na rin ang kultura at isyu ng kanilang kinabibilangan na komunidad.

at ethics

Ang ganitong sitwasyon ay nagreresulta sa “babaw” na pamamahayag na nakatutok lamang sa mga positibong balita at isinasantabi ang mga tunay na hinaing at problema ng mga stakeholders.

Matatandaang naglabas ng pag-aaral ang United Nation Research Group noong nakaraang taon, ang isyu ng pagpapatahimik sa mga mamamahayag na nananatiling isang kritikal na isyu ng bansa, kung saan lumalabas na 85% ng mga kaso sa buong mundo ay hindi napaparusahan at 162 mamamahayag ang napatay habang ginagampanan ang kanilang tungkulin noong 2023-2024, lalo na sa mga lugar ng tunggalian. Kapansin-pansing mapanganib ang Pilipinas, na may mahigit 175 mamamahayag ang napatay simula noong 1986, kabilang ang ilan sa ilalim ng kasalukuyang administrasyon ni Pangulong Marcos Jr.

RESPONSABLENG PAMAMAHAYAG

Players must have enough rest

“I love tennis, but the bad part of tennis is that it has tournaments a week, I think it’s week after week after week and we don’t have the chance just to prepare. Sometimes you just have to stop yourself and think what you are doing.”

It is okay to have tournaments,

To address these challenges, accountability must be shared among publications. Student journalists must take responsibility for reporting ethically and professionally. Advisers and publication teams should review for sensitive posts, provide guidance on online ethics, and monitor the accuracy of all published content..

CJs must know their responsibility. Campus journalists are not seasonal performers, they are the conscience of the community. CJs should justify their roles as an ethical storyteller. Be a real journalist that our community needs. Be a truth seeker, not a clout chaser. HONEST OPINION We must protect the press Campus journalists are trained to seek truth and speak for the school community, yet being a student writer that wants only to stand firm needs to hold back our words just because it was seen as harsh or aggressive.

Reducing the role of student journalists to trophies teaches them that recognition outweighs integrity, awards are more important than ethics, and comfort is preferred over courage.

According to the depedbataan.com Publications,

Campus journalists are not just students who write stories, they are shaping how the community should respond towards societal issues. Therefore, school publications must not limit the press freedom of its campus journalists, every story must be published with courage and integrity. Our community still needs truth seekers and eye-openers.

Campus journalists are trained to seek truth and speak for the school community, yet being a student writer that wants only to stand firm needs to hold back our words just because it was seen as harsh or aggressive.

The issue of limited press freedom in schools arises when campus publications attempt to cover government-related topics but encounter restrictions from school authorities maintaining institutional boundaries.

Through adherence to responsible journalism principles, campus publications can continue to inform while aligning with institutional expectations.

Maintaining objectivity allows campus journalists to present issues clearly without favoring one side over another.

Responsible journalism is identified as an approach that promotes balanced and fair reporting while observing set limitations.

The contrast between these perspectives reflects the ongoing challenge of defining the role of campus media within academic institution

This situation highlights differing views on the scope of campus journalism, as student writers are also encouraged to stay informed on broader societal matters.

“You as Campus Journalist should also know National Issues,” he stated.

“We are an education institution” stated by Prodigo.

According to the Senate of the Philippines freedom of the press is tantamount to the right to self- expression of every Filipino. This gave birth to Republic Act 7079, otherwise known as the “Campus Journalism Act of 1991”. But long before the law has been passed, the Department of Education has already been conducting the National Schools Press Conference (NSPC), one of the highest academic competitions in the country which aims to test the communication skills of Filipino campus journalists. Based on records, the first NSPC was held in 1920.

The win improved Lothong’s professional record to 60-17 making it quite an achievement for a 17-year-old prodigy.

Lothong Kruaynaimuanggym the rising prodigy of Thailand sets off his wings as he dominated the Vietnamese-Thai foe, Wanpadej NF Looksuan in the recently concluded ONE Friday Nights Fights 144 on February 27, held at Lumpinee Stadium, Bangkok Thailand.

Having with him the unanimous decision after the three-round match, Lothong now holds 59 professional Muay Thai victories which made him stand out from his age group.

But it also unearthed a truth the country must confront: No one should have to risk their life just to sort through the country’s waste. The mountains of trash will keep growing. The ground will keep shifting. And unless something changes—unless safety becomes more important than profit, unless workers like Juan, Ben, and Julio are given the protection they deserve—there will be more collapses, more mourning, more names forgotten beneath the rubble. Let this be the last tragedy of its kind.Let their stories be more than statistics.Let the country refuse to look away. Because no one should die for doing the work the rest of us depend on.

How many collapses does it take before warnings become action? What happened to Juan, Ben, and Julio is not an isolated accident. It is a symptom. A symptom of a system that lets people work on unstable mountains of trash without proper protection, contracts, rights, or recognition.

Not even close.

It is here where three men—Juan, Ben, and Julio—began every day with the simple hope of ending it alive. And then came February 20, 2026—the day the mountain woke angry. When 420,000 cubic meters of trash broke loose at the Rizal Provincial Sanitary Landfill (RPSL), it was not just a collapse. It was an avalanche of everything the country had thrown away—plastic memories, chemical remains, forgotten things and forgotten people—rushing down in a roaring tide. Three waste workers were swallowed whole. Juan. Ben. Julio. Only one body has been recovered, lifeless. Two remain missing beneath the weight of a country’s neglect.

There is still hope. EDSA lives in the heart. Its resurrection is in our hands. The fire was wasted, yes. But fires, in the right hands, can always be rekindled.

Then he turned the mirror on the faithful sitting right there in the shrine.

That was 1986. That was EDSA.

And so he said everything.

Villegas did not hide from this truth. He named it.

This time, he did not come to reminisce. He came to reckon.

I cannot accept a system where excuses justify repeated loss of life.

Disinformation intensifies institutional vulnerability.

The Philippines undermined with financial illiteracy is a reflection on how broken the learning system in the country. According to Pia Roman-Tayag, director of the Office of the United Nations Secretary-General’s Special Advocate for Inclusive Finance for Development (UNSGSA), financial literacy in the country remains low. The fact that statistics shows only about 25 percent of Filipinos understand basic financial concepts should alarm the education sector, the government and the country. Thrusting finance and economics in our learning system and making it robust is a must to excise the rotting financial literacy our nation has.

First of all, it creates public distrust, and leads to protest,” she said. Moreover, she emphasized that without clear fund reporting, the public remains in the dark — a condition that destabilizes accountability, weakens civic engagement, and threatens the overall integrity of public service.

“Greenwashing or misleading the masses through supposed environmental campaigns heavily affects how people view climate action,” she said.

She also linked environmental issues to real-world disruptions, citing the extreme heat that happened in recent weeks that forced widespread class suspensions and further paralyzed the country’s education system. “Past weeks of extreme heat have led to multiple no-class days, affecting students’ learning,” Tayag noted.

In my opinion

Securing land for large-scale housing projects is a hard process. Many urban areas are already saturated, while relocating people to far-flung areas could lead to job displacement and urban sprawl.

Will 4PH succeed in integrating these communities into formal housing without disrupting their way of life?

Will 4PH ensure that these homes are not just affordable, but also livable, safe?

But can this project truly address the housing crisis, or will it face the same challenges that have plagued past housing programs?

Does this project solve the housing crisis?
