‘Media censorship is back…’

Twenty-six years since democracy was supposedly restored and media censorship ended, it is alarming to hear that Philippine President Aquino has signed into law Republic Act 10175 or the Cybercrime Prevention Act.

The Philippines Solidarity Network of Aotearoa (PSNA) joins the Filipino people in urging the Philippine Supreme Court to declare the cybercrime law unconstitutional.

Instead of signing a law that threatens anew not only the freedom of the press but also the freedom of millions of ordinary citizens who use the Internet, President Aquino should have instead worked for the immediate passage of the long-overdue Freedom of Information (FOI) bill.

We hope that when President Aquino comes to New Zealand on Oct. 22, 2012, he would have good news that the cybercrime law has been junked and the FOI bill has finally been passed.

The FOI bill must be passed if the Aquino administration is serious about taking the righteous path. Allowing citizens to access information about their elected public officials is crucial in ensuring accountability and promoting good governance.

In New Zealand, the Official Information Act has been in place for 30 years now.

With the cybercrime law that includes online libel, we are concerned that the Filipino peoples right to express their views and criticize erring public officials is seriously threatened. Journalists, anticorruption crusaders and ordinary citizens who express strong views against corrupt politicians would be sanctioned for merely expressing their views as cybercriminals.

With the cybercrime law, the Aquino administration has declared its own version of Marcos martial lawthe e-martial law, and now those in power may unjustly claim any information posted on the Internet to be libelous. Media censorship is back wholesale, and ordinary citizens are now more vulnerable to being charged with libel.

WBC President: Chavez Jr. Out of Control, "Poor, Rich Kid." Fan's Take

WBC President, Jose Sulaiman has often been accused of working for the benefit of Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. and even, at times, running interference for the second generation star. After all, he did allow for a path to be paved where Chavez Jr. could fight extremely weak opposition en route to a practically gift wrapped WBC middleweight title belt. He also allowed for the fighter to keep his belt for as long as possible without having to face the legitimate lineal champ, Sergio Martinez.

Now, almost three weeks after Chavez tested positive for marijuana following his unanimous decision loss to Sergio Martinez, Sulaiman has gone to the media with some harsh words for the young fighter that could either be considered tough love or spiteful backlash.

After stating his intention to fine Chavez $20,000 and force him to go to rehabilitation as a condition for being allowed to return to a WBC ring, the long-time official revealed that the 26-year-old fighter, who is still facing punishment from the Nevada State Athletic Commission, may be in more serious trouble than anyone thought.

"He's not the young man I know anymore," Sulaiman said. "He's become bitter and has an out of control passion for throwing his money away. He loses much of it in the casinos. So, what he makes, he just hands over to the casinos. That's truly terrible. It shows that he's not on firm ground. He has lost his head."

The Mexico City native, who has been close to the Chavez family for years, also said that the young fighter has hurled insults at him in a recent outburst.

"I feel disappointed. I'm worried and I feel sad. Disappointed because he was the one who changed his life. He's a person who doesn't have to fight to make money. Since he was born, he's always been a poor rich kid."

Over the course of his nine year professional career, Chavez has seen trouble and controversy before, in situations ranging from questionable decisions in his favor to a 2009 positive drug test for a banned substance and a DUI arrest earlier this year.

Depending on how you feel about the legalization of marijuana and/or its role as a banned substance in the fight game, this latest offense could be considered the least of his offenses. But, still, for those who care about the young man outside of the ring, this should be prime motivation to get him some help before things escalate out of control.

Romney's 'Big Bird' debate comment stirs social media; Jim Lehrer, out of control?

WASHINGTON Big Bird is endangered. Jim Lehrer lost control. And Mitt Romney crushed President Barack Obama.

Those were the judgments rendered across Twitter and Facebook Wednesday during the first debate of the 2012 presidential contest. While millions turned on their televisions to watch the 90-minute showdown, a smaller but highly engaged subset took to social networks to discuss and score the debate as it unspooled in real time.

Until recently, debate watchers would have waited through the entire broadcast to hear analysis and reaction from a small cadre of television pundits. Social media has democratized the commentary, giving voice to a far wider range of participants who can shape the narrative long before the candidates reach their closing statements.

"People still use old media to watch the debates, but they use social networks and other new media to have influence, voice opinions and be involved," said Scott Talan, an assistant professor of communication at American University who studies social media and politics. "Old media is not dead; it's growing. But now we have more people involved and engaged because of digital means."

The political conversation plays out across a range of social platforms, especially on the industry giant Facebook and on Twitter, the social networking hub where opinions are shared through 140-character comments known as tweets. Reflecting the changing times, many television analysts now monitor Twitter and Facebook feeds and use information gleaned from those platforms to inform their punditry.

Twitter announced shortly after Wednesday's debate that it had been the most tweeted event in U.S. political history, topping this year's Republican and Democratic National Conventions.

With 11.1 million comments, Wednesday's debate was the fourth most tweeted telecast of any kind, coming in just behind the most recent Grammy awards, MTV's Video Music Awards and the Super Bowl, according to William Powers, director of the Crowdwire, an election project of the social analytics firm Bluefin Labs. The project found 55 percent of the social comments about the debate were made by women, 45 percent by men.

Unlike the wider viewing audience, debate watchers who comment on social media "are politically engaged in the strongest possible way," Powers said. But, he added, "it's a bit of a hothouse population. It does skew younger, and I'm not sure how much middle America is represented."

Twitter scored Romney the debate's clear winner according to Peoplebrowsr, a web analytics firm. The group found 47,141 tweets mentioning Romney and "win or winner" compared to just 29,677 mentioning Obama and "win or winner."

Romney was also the top tweet in battleground states including Florida, Ohio, Nevada and Colorado, Peoplebrowsr found.
