00:00What are you doing for news or documentaries?
00:08What is the pinakadelikado?
00:10Pinakadelikado?
00:10You know, Tito Boy, there's a different risk.
00:12There's a physical risk.
00:14I cover a lot of bad things.
00:16So, it's a big deal of my body of work.
00:21But there's a lot of things that are delikado
00:25because there are some things that are going to be done.
00:29So, there are stories about, for example,
00:33very influential politicians or very big corporations
00:37or about the insurgency, for example.
00:43Yan, very sensitive.
00:44Kasi nakaranas na tayo ng binash na tanong kanina.
00:49So, you understand it's part of the territory.
00:54But, of course, minsan nakakatakot din.
00:57Lalo kapag talagang consistent at tuloy-tuloy.
01:00Ito talagang napaka-interesante yung pag-usapan ngayon.
01:02Kasi halimbawa, napapagit na tayo dito sa lahat nitong mga investigasyon
01:07mula sa ICI Blue Ribbon Committee dati sa Kongreso.
01:12Lahat-lahat ang ito.
01:13It's so noisy.
01:14It's so chaotic out there.
01:15Nasaan ka as someone in the news?
01:20You know, I have really strong opinions about it.
01:22I believe strongly in the importance of good governance and accountability.
01:27Hindi naman deniable.
01:29It's out there.
01:30Na talagang grabe ang korupsyon.
01:33Bilyong-bilyong piso ang pinag-uusapan.
01:36At ang pinaka-nakalulungkot,
01:39latest lang ito sa mahabang kasaysayan natin
01:41na mayroong mga expose tapos wala naman nangyayari.
01:44So, I am absolutely 100% with ordinary people
01:49when they say na we're sick and tired
01:51and we want people to pay.
01:53Bisa namin may managot.
01:54This is not just for you and me
01:56but for a lot of people who are in broadcast, for example.
02:01Habang naghahanap ka ng ebidensa,
02:03habang naghahanap tayo ng mga katibayan,
02:08we make certain opinions.
02:09We have our own opinions.
02:10Based on many things.
02:13Pagdating sa trabaho,
02:15paano ang balance, in your opinion,
02:19doon sa klarong-klaro naman,
02:20naniniwala ka na itong taong ito
02:22magnanakaw at mandarambong
02:24tapos biglang nakakaharap mo
02:26and you actually give airtime
02:29and you're trying to be fair.
02:31Is that possible?
02:33I think it's possible.
02:36Tricky yan, tito boy.
02:37Unang-una yung access kasi malaking usapin yan sa mga journalist.
02:43Parang when I say access,
02:46papayag ba yung tao na ma-interview siya?
02:49Kung alam nung i-interviewin.
02:51Or kung hindi man,
02:52abogado o di kaya kakampi
02:54noong taong involved.
02:56Yun na nga.
02:56Parang halimbawa,
02:57kung alam nung i-interviewin na
02:59itong reporter na ito
03:01will ask tough questions,
03:03will be adversarial,
03:05baka sabihin niya,
03:05wag na lang.
03:06Okay.
03:06Pero at the same time,
03:08hindi naman pwedeng mag-pull ka ng punches
03:10kasi you owe it to the public
03:12to ask the questions they want to ask.
03:15So yes,
03:16kung ang meron ka pala
03:19ng akusasyon,
03:20itanong mo sa kanya
03:21yung mga akusasyon na yun.
03:22Pero kung meron ka ng ebidensya,
03:24merong nagsalita,
03:25halimbawa,
03:26merong document,
03:27merong litrato,
03:29kailangan mong ihapag sa kanila yun.
03:31At hindi mo lang pwedeng tanggapin na
03:33blanket denial.
03:34You have to be diligent about those things.
