>It is our responsibility as journalists to report on people and events that affect public interest. The public has the right to know. Abdullah Macapaar alias Commander Bravo is one of the country’s most wanted men, a key figure in the collapse of the peace process in Mindanao. He’s a legitimate story, and our interview with him aired Oct. 20 and 21 adhere to ethical standards of journalism.
We at ABS-CBN have been covering Commander Bravo for many years now—even during peacetime. We will continue to report on what he says and does with the same zeal and professionalism that we would use when covering his arrest – if and when that happens.
