MANILA (AFP): Buoyed by her latest acquittal, Philippine journalist Maria Ressa (pic) told AFP on Tuesday (Sept 12) that media freedom in the country has improved since former president Rodrigo Duterte left office, but there was still a "lot of work to do".
Ressa, who was a vocal critic of Duterte and his deadly drug war, said the fear fostered by him had "largely lifted" since his successor Ferdinand Marcos took power in June 2022.
