A conference and jamming night in one tomorrow

Here's an invitation from Rowena Carranza-Paraan, secretary-general of the National Union of Journalists of the Philippines:

The National Union of Journalists of the Philippines is having a press conference cum jamming night tomorrow 7 pm at Newsdesk Cafe. NUJP will present the signatories to the petition against criminal defamation.

Attached is the list of journalists facing libel charges courtesy of the First Gentleman and the pooled statement/petition with the list of signatories as of Oct. 9. As of today Oct. 10 however, the number of signatories has already surpassed the 500 mark, with the signing of several Senate reporters.

It would be an honor if you could join us in this activity, including the jamming session, both for fun and in pursuit of the ideals of press freedom, free expression and the people's right to know.
