Dateline, Manila
Hello. I’m Jonathan de Santos. I’m news editor at Philstar.com, a website that is the least favorite child of The Philippine Star group in Manila.
I began working in news in 2008 and have reported mostly on national politics and policies. I have since been more focused on land rights, indigenous peoples’ issues and other less widely reported topics that we sometimes refer to as “people’s issues”
What’s this about?
Slow News Days is commentary on journalism and journalism adjacent issues in the Philippines, where the media is still incorrectly referred to as the freest in Asia.
