One of them is propaganda. Misinformation campaigns have been on the rise partly due to the turn towards right-wing extremism in many parts of the world. Social media has created new ways to spread misinformation and propaganda, making education a powerful tool to combat the spread of lies and what we might call fake news. My guest today is Maria Ressa, a Filipino-American journalist and author. Co-founder of online news site Rappler, she has been an investigative reporter in Southeast Asia for CNN and was included in the 2018 Time's Person of the Year for her work combating fake news. She has been arrested for her reporting on Duterte, the Philippine president, and is currently on trial for cyberlibel. This episode was put together in collaboration with Education International. www.freshedpodcast.com/mariaressa/ Twitter: @FreshEdpodcast Facebook: FreshEd Email: info@freshedpodcast.com
The start of a new year often inspires many of us to take up a new hobby or two. Some people want to get their creative juices flowing, while others want to move more. Running is probably one of the most accessible forms of exercise that you can start with. If you have a pair of running shoes and a not-so-busy road to run on, you're good to go. In this first The Green Report episode of 2025, Rappler environment editor Jee Geronimo and reporter Iya Gozum make the case for running not just as an exercise but also as an opportunity to take up space outdoors. https://www.rappler.com/environment/the-green-report-episode-joy-running/

Nelle Filippine l'ex presidente Rodrigo Duterte ha annunciato di volersi candidare al ruolo di sindaco di Davao. Una candidatura che nasce dalla rottura della famiglia Duterte con l'ex alleato, il presidente Marcos. In Indonesia Joko Widodo, Jokowi, lascia la presidenza al subentrante Prabowo. Ma l'ex presidente sta sistemando ovunque figli, parenti e amici, per creare una dinastia politica e minare fin da subito la nuova presidenza del Paese.

Nobel Peace Prize Laureate, Maria Ressa, and her co-founders created Rappler to harness social media's connecting power to bring journalists directly to audiences.

Brad and Maria also discuss turning crisis to opportunities and how the golden rule she learned as a child influences her decisions today. Click here for the full transcript

A lot can happen in just a week. This was the case last July, when the President's State of the Nation Address on July 23 opened a very eventful week, with the enhanced southwest monsoon and the Bataan oil spill happening on July 24 and 25, respectively. How do all three events impact the environment? Rappler environment editor Jee Geronimo and reporter Iya Gozum talk about these and more in this episode of the The Green Report. https://www.rappler.com/environment/green-report-episode-sona-2024-southwest-monsoon-bataan-oil-spill/
Authorities say the aircraft landed in a residential area in the state of São Paulo, but no-one on the ground has been injured. Also: The UN nuclear agency has urged Russia and Ukraine to exercise maximum restraint, as fighting in western Russia draws closer to the Kursk nuclear power plant. Rappler, the Philippines news site critical of the former government's deadly war on drugs, is to stay open after a court overturned a closure order, and the Russian chess champion accused of smearing poison on her rival's pieces.
Over the past few days Ukrainian forces have launched a ground offensive inside Russia in the Kursk region. Russia's defence ministry says it's sending reinforcements and so far, four villages have been evacuated near the area. Military analyst Alexander Lord talks us through Ukraine's change in strategy. Also in the programme: A victory for press freedom in the Philippines today. Rappler, the news organisation run by Nobel prize winner Maria Ressa, will have its corporate license restored.

In the last few years, artificial intelligence has gone from a novelty to perhaps the most influential technology we've ever seen. The people building AI are convinced that it will eradicate disease, turbocharge productivity, and solve climate change. It feels like we're on the cusp of a profound societal transformation. Fifteen years ago, there was a similar wave of optimism around social media: it was going to connect the world, catalyze social movements and spur innovation. It may have done some of these things. But it also made us lonelier, angrier, and occasionally detached from reality.Few people understand this trajectory better than Maria Ressa. Ressa is a Filipino journalist, and the CEO of a news organization called Rappler. Like many people, she was once a fervent believer in the power of social media. Then she saw how it could be abused. In 2016, she reported on how Rodrigo Duterte, then president of the Philippines, had weaponized Facebook in the election he'd just won. After publishing those stories, Ressa became a target herself, and her inbox was flooded with death threats. In 2021, she won the Nobel Peace Prize.As novel as AI is, it has undoubtedly been shaped by the technologies, the business models, and the CEOs that came before it. And Ressa thinks we're about to repeat the mistakes we made with social media all over again.

Maria Ressa won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2021 for challenging corruption in her native country, the Philippines. She is now focused on the threat to democracy from big tech. --- Maria Ressa is a groundbreaking international journalist. She won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2021 for her efforts to address corruption in the Philippines. Ressa is CEO of Rappler, an international news organization that she founded. She is the author of “How to Stand Up to a Dictator: The Fight for our Future.” The book is a memoir of her life's work to hold power to account. In her book, Ressa argues that the trend toward authoritarian rulers around the world has been helped in large part by big tech. She documents how social media platforms are allowed to spread lies and foster hate and disinformation — all to the detriment of democracy.
A study by the V-Dem Institute revealed that by 2023, 71% of the world's population was living under authoritarian regimes, marking a 48% increase in just a decade since 2013. According to senior journalist and 2021 Nobel Peace Prize laureate Maria Ressa, this trend is not a coincidence. She believes that leaders in information technology must be held accountable because the exploitation of lies, hatred, and shallow thinking on social media is at the core of today's democratic crises. Maria is the founder of Rappler, an independent news channel established in 2012 in the Philippines to champion press freedom as a cornerstone of democracy. Among her notable works are "How to Stand Up to a Dictator: The Fight for Our Future" (2022), "From Bin Laden to Facebook: 10 Days of Abduction, 10 Years of Terrorism" (2013), and "Seeds of Terror: An Eyewitness Account of Al-Qaeda's Newest Center" (2003). #Endgame #GitaWirjawan #MariaRessa ------------------ Get Maria's book from Periplus bookstore here: https://www.periplus.com/p/9780753559208 ------------------ Understand this episode better: https://sgpp.me/eps180notes ------------------ Earn a Master of Public Policy degree and be Indonesia's future narrator.

Patricia Evangelista is a trauma journalist whose coverage of the drug war in the Philippines has appeared in Rappler, Esquire, and elsewhere. Her recent book is Some People Need Killing: A Memoir of Murder in My Country. “It is hard to describe the beat I do without saying very often it involves people who have died. And it seemed like an unfair way to frame it. It didn't quite seem right. … Sometimes there's no dead body, or sometimes there's 6,000, but the function is the same: that the people you speak to have gone through enormous painful trauma, and then there's a way to cover it that minimizes that trauma. So … I don't cover the dead. I cover trauma.” Show notes: Evangelista's Rappler archive Some People Need Killing: A Memoir of Murder in My Country (Random House • 2023) 01:00 The Mastermind: A True Story of Murder, Empire, and a New Kind of Crime Lord (Evan Ratliff • Random House • 2020) 11:00 Evangelista's Philippine Daily Inquirer archive 21:00 "The Rapture of Rodrigo Duterte" (Patricia Evangelista and Nicole Curato • Rappler • May 2016) Learn more about your ad choices.

Nobel Peace Prize-winner Maria Ressa has spent the past decade advocating for the protection of journalists. Today, we return to our urgent conversation with the trailblazing author and activist. We begin by unpacking the fragmenting effects of social media (6:08), how the internet gave power to authoritarian regimes around the globe (8:49), and Ressa's five years uncovering those operations (9:20). Then, we walk through her early years: moving from the Philippines to suburban New Jersey at age ten (14:08), three lessons from childhood (16:52), and her discoveries at Princeton (22:10). On the back-half, we discuss Ressa's serendipitous entry to the newsroom (32:18), why she founded Rappler in 2012 (35:12), and her critical reportage on President Rodrigo Duterte's drug war (36:52), which led to her arrest by the Filipino government in 2019 (41:22). Now, she's charted this fight in her book, How to Stand Up to a Dictator (47:12). To close, we unpack her continuous pursuit of the truth (50:03), her recognition as a 2021 Nobel Laureate (52:37), and an ode to a lifelong friend (56:11).

When Rodrigo Duterte ran for the presidency of the Philippines and won, in 2016, the Western press noted the similarities between this unconventional candidate and Donald Trump—who also liked to casually espouse violence on the campaign trail and beyond. Duterte used provocative and obscene language to tap into the country's fears about a real, albeit overstated, drug problem. “Every drug addict was a schizophrenic, hallucinatory, will rape your mother and butcher your father,” as reporter Patricia Evangelista puts it, “and if he can't find a child to rape, he'll rape a goat.” But, unlike Donald Trump, Duterte made good on his promise of death. More than twenty thousand extrajudicial killings took place over the course of his six-year term in office, according to human-rights groups—and Duterte remained quite popular as bodies piled up in the streets. Reporting for the news site Rappler, Evangelista confronted the collateral damage when Durterte started to enact his “kill them all” policies. “I had to take accountability,” she tells David Remnick. Her book, “Some People Need Killing,” is published in the U.S. this week, and Evangelista has left the Philippines because of the danger it puts her in. “I own the guilt,” Evangelista says. “How can I sit in New York, when the people whose stories I told, who took the risk to tell me their stories, are sitting in shanties across the country and might be at risk because of things they told me.”

When Rodrigo Duterte ran for the presidency of the Philippines and won, in 2016, the Western press noted the similarities between this unconventional candidate and Donald Trump—who also liked to casually espouse violence on the campaign trail and beyond. Duterte used provocative and obscene language to tap into the country's fears about a real, albeit overstated, drug problem. “Every drug addict was a schizophrenic, hallucinatory, will rape your mother and butcher your father,” as reporter Patricia Evangelista puts it, “and if he can't find a child to rape, he'll rape a goat.” But, unlike Donald Trump, Duterte made good on his promise of death. More than twenty thousand extrajudicial killings took place over the course of his six-year term in office, according to human-rights groups—and Duterte remained quite popular as bodies piled up in the streets.

In the final episode of our limited series on AI, we look at the big issues of accountability and responsibility. How should we allocate the responsibilities for managing this technology? Who will decide when AIs are doing more harm than good? Will we be looking to private companies or depending on public servants? And what will be left for individual citizens to decide? To help unlock solutions to the growing challenge of AI responsibility, host Raffi Krikorian speaks with Maria Ressa, Nobel Prize-winning journalist and co-founder of Rappler; scientist and inventor Rosalind Picard from MIT's Media Lab; James Manyika, Senior Vice President of Research, Technology, and Society at Google; Kyunghyun Cho, Professor of Computer Science and Data Science at New York University; Stanford Internet Observatory Research Manager Renee DiResta; and Professor and data journalist Meredith Broussard. Together, they discuss different approaches to AI responsibility, and look at what the future could hold for ethical accountability.

durée : 01:59:08 - Les Matins du samedi - par : Quentin Lafay - Maria Ressa est journaliste. Aux Philippines, elle a dénoncé la guerre contre la drogue de Duterte, mais a aussi dressé des critiques à l'égard des géants des réseaux sociaux. Victime d'une répression cynique, cette figure de la liberté de la presse paie cher son combat contre la désinformation. - invités : Maria Ressa journaliste philippino-américaine, co-fondatrice et dirigeante de Rappler, prix Nobel de la paix 2021
Filipino-American journalist and 2021 Nobel Peace Prize winner Maria Ressa could still face life in prison despite being cleared of tax evasion charges in the Philippines in January. The CEO and cofounder of digital news media site Rappler, Ressa has recently published a book based on her career holding power to account, How to Stand Up to a Dictator. Prior to establishing Rappler, Ressa spent nearly 20 years as CNN's lead reporter in South East Asia.
When it comes to the media, Nobel Peace Prize-winning journalist Maria Ressa has dealt with it all: attacks on the freedom of the press in the Philippines, audiences turning to social media, and misinformation. But these aren't only problems in the Philippines. For our 500th episode, we're looking at how we get our news and why. Spoiler alert: the state of the media isn't great. So at a time when many say journalism is more important than ever, what can be done to turn around that distrust and disinterest?

As we near the end of 2022, we sit with trailblazing journalist and Nobel Peace Prize winner Maria Ressa. We begin by unpacking the fragmenting effects of social media (5:08), how the Internet is giving power to authoritarian regimes around the globe (7:49), and Ressa's past five years uncovering those operations (8:20). Then, we walk through her early years: moving from the Philippines to suburban New Jersey at age ten (13:08), three lessons from childhood (15:52), and the books that impacted her at Princeton (21:10). On the back-half, we discuss Ressa's serendipitous entry to the newsroom (30:18), why she founded Rappler in 2012 (33:12), and her critical reportage on President Rodrigo Duterte's drug war (34:52), which led to her arrest by the Filipino government in 2019 (39:22). Now, she's charted this fight in her new book, How to Stand Up to a Dictator (45:12). To close, we honor her continuous pursuit of the truth (48:03), her recognition as a 2021 Nobel Laureate (50:37), and the words of a lifelong friend (54:11).See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Nobel Prize-winning journalist Maria Ressa faces 100 years in prison stemming from what she says are illegitimate charges, but that hasn't stopped her mission of exposing political malfeasance and lies in her home country of the Philippines. She joined David to talk about immigrating to the US as a child and later returning to the Philippines where she built a career, technology's corrosive impact on journalism and democracy, founding Rappler and finding herself a government target, and maintaining hope as she fights corruption and disinformation through her journalism.
On June 30, 2022, the Philippines inaugurates a new president: — Ferdinand Marcos Jr., son of the former President Ferdinand Marcos Sr. who ruled for a time under martial law and was overthrown in 1986. Marcos Jr., also known as Bongbong Marcos, was voted into office in a May 2022 landslide victory alongside vice presidential candidate Sara Duterte, daughter of the outgoing President Rodrigo Duterte.

Diaz, Ressa talked about disinformation, the importance of press freedom, and what she and Diaz were seeing on the ground in the Philippines during the historic campaign season.
