Progressive Economy and Corruption Don't Mix

There is an alarming rate in corruption related deaths of journalists in the Philippines. So much so that some international watchdogs are getting involved. The Philippine Star reports yet another killing of a journalist. Said journalist was a hardhitting reporter and was doing his job in reporting corruption. Please read more on this.

The positive side to all of this: The killings is an indication that those who perpetrate these crimes are desperate. They are afraid of getting exposed for fear of prosecution in court or simply don't want the public to know. They are starting to run a little ..... scared. I sympathize with the families of these great warriors but the ultimate sacrifice is not lost.
