With the support of CEBU 2017 FOREWORD BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE In the time of fakery, which media to trust Attempts to repress media are usually foiled by defense of free speech and free press. Yet how can free speech be justified if media cannot be held accountable for abuse or excess? Mainstream media has long accepted the limits on free speech and free press. Libel laws provide for both criminal and civil liability. Punishment for contempt curbs disrespect to the courts and legislative bodies lawfully exercising the power of inquiry. Industry and individual in-house rules on ethics restrain offensive behavior that falls short of a crime. In sum, media is regulated not just by the state. Practitioners submit to scrutiny by their respective media outlets, their peers and their public. Yes, their readership or audience, which, as consumers, may stop reading or watching the media they can no longer trust. The setup has worked for mainstream media, print and broadcast, but maybe not for online media, particularly the sectors that have no rules and no gatekeepers that curb misconduct. Writers in mainstream Fingers point to social media, whose platform managers are still scrambling how media are named and to keep toxic messages of anger and hate away from the conversation. Mainstream media police their own ranks. Social media managers are struggling, almost helpless identified. They don’t or unwilling to supply filters in the internet that, by its concept, is totally free but, as give news or opinion in essential civility sinks in, should not be. the shadows or, in the light, don’t wear hoods. Immediacy of access and posting. And anonymity. Those give the edge in internet Complainants know whom communication but they’re also the bane. The voices are quick and bold but because and where to look for. And they are not identified, they ignore restraints that keep the regular media careful with each news organization the facts in the news and the logic in their commentaries.
