“Not true. The Constitution limits

Rappler must comply,” presidential spokesperson Harry Roque said.
Rappler CEO Ressa, in a press conference shown live on Facebook, said the
SEC decision was political in nature. “I appeal to the government to realize
that we are here to make the country stronger and help make the right
decisions.”

Outrageous, revolting how SEC people would do anything to please the Boss. Not even in
any administration do this agency dip their hands in politics. It is only Duterte and no one
else in the administration that cannot take criticism. To him there is no constructive
criticism all these for him are attacks, disapproval and censures. How could a person grow
or improve if he cannot accept what is wrong with him. He thinks he is immaculate, hence
people working for him become lapdogs and boot lickers.

It is done according to law. If you think it was done otherwise, then bring it to court
and prove yourself right, rather than provoking Filipino people with your
unfounded allegations. Only unreasonable persons do that!!

Journalist Luis Beltran was jailed when he wrote that Aquino had "hidden under

By doing this, Rappler will morph into another online entity of some sort and will bash the Stages of love highlighted in Julie Anne’s
