After being condemned on Monday for cyber-defamation, the
well-known Philippine journalist Maria Ressa assures in an interview with EFE
that "democracy is slowly dying" not only in the Philippines of
Rodrigo Duterte, but throughout the world with the "rise of leaders
populist, authoritarian and fascist. "
Ressa has become the standard-bearer for press freedom in
the Philippines, where journalists, especially those from Rappler - an
influential portal she has run since 2012 - are on the receiving end of network
attacks by the armies of trolls who work at the pro-Duterte propaganda service.
