to the Philippines. KI1 and KI2 as being part of the media practitioners discoursed the issue of
Duterte and the former US President Barack Obama of the allegedly profanities of the
Philippine President against him, but it was indistinct to everyone if Dutertes either pointing out
the curse to the US President or it is just his way of expression. Next occurrence that KI1
deliberated is when President Rodrigo Duterte called out United Nations (UN) as Inutile and
even treated the organization to withdraw the membership of the Philippines from it, and gave
European Union a middle finger gesture, which is presented on the V1.2, 0:18-0:21. It is when
the international institutions, the EU and the UN with U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon
interfered Dutertes campaign on War on Drugs thats depriving individual right. The V1.2,

If someones do not know how to distinguish President Dutertes playful act, then he can
either mislead him, or he will get a bunch surprise of criticisms from his avid supporters. Media
these days are often regarded as biased because they are exposing the presidents confidential
deeds toward his way of ruling the country, which is their primary job, to disseminate factual
information. The media was once commanded by the presidents administration to use their
creative imagination in interpreting Dutertes remarks and asked them not to take it literally on
what was the president is saying, and instead use it to identify whether the president is joking or
not. On the other hand, KI1, specified that it is hard to tell whether the president is serious or
not, and there was even a time he said, that the president likes to tell an anecdotes during his
speeches and there was a time that the president said that he talked to God. But after several days
of the release of the news information, Duterte withdraw his statement that he talked to God
during his flight from an official trip in Japan to Manila in October, 2016. He even teased the
Media for being foolish of believing his joke which can be shown on V1.4, 0:56- 1:31.

against drugs thats putrefying the country. Although the campaign aims a good intention for the
betterment of the country, the implementation seemed to be immoral. As being the watchdogs of
the society, the journalists are tied up to report and disseminate the current issues in and outside
the country. The said killings earned up multiple considerations all over the world that expound
the spitefulness of the Philippine authority in terms of the human rights violation. The result of
occurrence stimulates the current administration to put the blame on the media for ostensibly
disseminating erroneous number of data of the drug slayings in the country. The current
administration is imputing the media and its correspondents for exposing the current situation of
the side by side killings that allegedly giving it exaggerated interpretations that could tarnish
their reputation to the public. However, the media are merely doing their responsibility to inform
the people of the present thing happenings in the place that they are living.
