I’M blogging from the Holiday Inn in Clark, Angeles, Pampanga City, where I’m staying to cover and participate in this year’s edition of Media Nation or MN4.1, “Political Reporting and the Hazard of Compromise,” which is touted as Part 1 of the 4th Philippine Summit for the News Media.
We left the INQUIRER.net office at around 2: 30 p.m. I hitched a ride with INQUIRER.net editor in chief JV Rufino, along with Philippine Daily Inquirer columnist and blogger Manuel L. Quezon III. Our INQUIRER.net reporter Thea Alberto is also here, though she took the shuttle and arrived earlier.
It’s my first time to be part of Media Nation, so I’m really looking forward to listening to the speakers and sharing with you what I’ll learn from here. It will be interesting to find out if they’ll touch on how technology is transforming journalism in the Philippines.
INQUIRER.net is one of the convenors of Media Nation this year, and as you might expect we have practically every publication represented here, including GMANews.tv.
I’m using wifi inside my hotel room, which I had activated for $10 or P530 for 24 hours. Not bad at all.
OK, have to listen to the opening remarks.
