haroots2 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 So on this, because theyve been circulating for a long time, is ok with you? I smell double standard. I a apply niyo lang yun law (strictly, at that) kapag means ito para matanggal ang critics, no? Meron ba sinasabi sa constitution how much should be invested bago ito lumalabag sa law of foreign ownership? Ano naman ang basehan mo para habulin sila aber? Dahil you remember dati na maraming fil-chi na Chinese citizen? Quote Link to comment
tk421 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 (edited) Aba malay ko. Kayo ang nagsasabi dyan na dapat walang foreign-influences ang media eh. And punto ko lang ay kung ganun kayo sa Rappler, bakit sa ibang 'harmless' publications hindi pantay ang treatment? Edited February 1, 2018 by tk421 Quote Link to comment
camiar Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 (edited) So if what Camiar is saying is true and they closed Rappler down due to it being allegedly influenced by foreign entities, why did they not do the same with all of these other media networks at the same damned time? Tsaka kung ganun lang ang excuse niyo, how about all those Chinese (or Japanese, Korean) newspapers that are being distributed in their respected communities? I'm sure you've seen these in Binondo and elsewhere. If I remember correctly a lot of Filipino Chinese aren't Filipino citizens, yet these people can invest in a mass media publication. They are written, printed and distributed within the Philippines for mass consumption. By right, they are all defined as mass media, correct? Is the law being applied equally or only to those that the government doesn't like?They did not close Rappler. They revoked its registration -- not because it is "allegedly being influenced by foreign entities" but because its ownership is not 100% Filipino. Foreign news media, no matter how respected they are in their own country cannot operate in the Philippines as dictated by our constitution. But copies of their publications can be distributed and read here. Where's the confusion? Edited February 1, 2018 by camiar Quote Link to comment

Anybody who took up Philippine Constitution as their college subject will learn that ban the on foreign ownership of news media organization is a preventive measure against foreign influence. Even "harmless" publishers who wish to operate in the Philippines have to have 100% Filipino ownership. Anyway, just because New York Times or Wall Street Journal are sold in Philippine newsstands does not mean that those publishers are operating here.

A newspaper company, for example, prints 200,000 copies of its morning news edition, Each newspaper you buy is a COPY of the morning news. CNN Philippines is a broadcasting company, not a newspaper company. Therefore the term "copy" does not apply. Anyway, as I said, if they want to operate here, they must register as 100% Filipino. If there are other news media in the Philippines who violate this, then SEC must go after them, too. If you know who they are, it is your duty as a citizen to report them.

tk421 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 It's the old switcheroo. >sigh< Anyways, tignan niyo nga halimbawa yun Manila Shimbun. That's a Japanese newspaper, operating in Manila. It's a mass media publication owned by a Japanese company (correct me if I'm wrong). Publishing original content in the Philippines. How come that is allowed and Rappler is not? Quote Link to comment
rooster69ph Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Para matapos na,To those saying na rappler violated foreign ownership per se ... Can anyone pls post the SEC en banc ruling that states rappler indeed has more than 0% foreign ownership. Quote Link to comment

How come that is allowed and Rappler is not?If the newspaper is sold here as a publication of a foreign newspaper, and it is clearly identified as a foreign newspaper, then there's no violation. New York Times can send an exact facsimile of its newspaper for local printing here in the Philippines to be sold in local newsstands. Since it is clearly identified as a foreign newspaper, no violations there. If a newspaper claims to be a Filipino newspaper but is in fact not 100% Filipino owned, then that's a violation.

Pwede ka naman mag initiate. Kaya mo yan lahat ma inquire sa SEC, kapag may nakiita kang irregularities sa documents ikaw na ang mag file ng complaint.

But bottomline u know wala naman siyang issue sa mga binigay niyang example di ba ... Ang punto nga niya si rappler ang pinagiinitan kahit 100% filipino owned As such if the main issue here is only rappler maybe u can prove na di 100% filipino owned yun company Quote Link to comment

SEC's ruling is that it violated the 100% Ownership rule. To many of Rappler's supporters, OK lang yung violation, because the silent foreign investors are Americans and that Rappler focuses on the USA and Europe's main issue: Protection of Human Rights. What if the foreign investors of Rappler were not Americans but Chinese, and Rappler starts posting news praising the good intentions of the Chinese in the South China Sea? Would they still cry foul on SEC's ruling?Ang haba kasi napunta pa sa fly by night at yun long term service viability eh wala naman palang connect.

The constitution is interpreted in its context, not legal semantics. Whether it the term used is foreign investor control or foreign investor ownership, the intent and context of the constitution is the same. Foreigners are not allowed ownership and/or control of Filipino news media as a preventive measure against foreign influence on Filipino public opinion. Key phrase: "foreign influence on Filipino public opinion" -- that's what our constitution is trying to prevent. Interpreting the constitution is different from interpreting the laws. The constitution "...should be interpreted in accordance with its original meaning — that is, the meaning it had at the time of its enactment..." Today's PDRs are legal loopholes circumventing our current laws on the issue of foreign ownership. SEC is wise to make its ruling based on the constitutionality issue rather than on legal ownership basis. Quote Link to comment
rooster69ph Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 camiar not really about semantics ... i agree when you said the constitution should be interpreted in its context. but you also need to lay your legal basis to pin rappler down. and the SEC cannot pin down rappler by claiming the company have foreign ownership per se. sinabi na mismo yan ng SEC na tecnically lahat ng owners nila pinoy. at paulit ulit kong sinasabi ang pdr hindi proof of ownership. what SEC said is that rappler ceded control via the pdr which is illegal that is why the pdr was voided. at alam naman natin parepareho na ang owners ang may right to control major decisions of a company. kaya yan ang naging legal basis nila. as to the key phrase you highlighted ... sa totoo lang it is easy to circumvent everything had they just put that “concent clause” in a side agreement. that makes the pdr agreement in order. the SEC won’t be able to find out unless a legal battle ensues between rappler and its foreign pdr investor. rappler can be influenced by a foreigner, wala naman magagawa kasi walang proof. poor lawyering kung sino man nag isisp at nag draft nung agreement. anyway lets agree to disagree as far as insisting rappler has foreign ownership ... but i think we’ll both agree na may punto ang SEC sa kaso nito kay rappler.
