Kssabillo: /* Notable Alumni */

The Union of Journalists of the Philippines - University of the Philippines (UJP-UP) is the student and research arm of the National Union of Journalists of the Philippines (NUJP), one of the leading media guilds in Asia. Based in the University of the Philippines College of Mass Communication, it is an academic political union of students committed to advancing pro-masses and pro-student ideals and promoting advocacy journalism and media ethics.

== History ==
----

The name Union of Journalists of the Philippines was originally used by the NUJP but by the time it decided to register itself as a formal organization, having several chapters in the country, it decided to add "National" and adapt the name National Union of Journalists of the Philippines instead. Until now, the NUJP uses the UJP initials in its logo.

After the terrible fate of the media and the Filipino people during Ferdinand Marcos's Martial Law and with the restoration of democracy in 1986, several Filipino media practitioners founded the NUJP to promote media professionalism and unionism. NUJP recognized that promoting a professional and unified media should start where it matters – students who are to be future media practitioners. In 1988, UJP was formed as its student arm.

== Preamble ==
----

"United in the belief that press freedom and advocacy journalism are vital in mass communication as means in upgrading skills in the profession, promoting people's rights and welfare, taking a conscious stand and form of action on issues, and actively partaking in the struggle for societal change..."

== Activities ==

The union is active in issues inside and outside the university. Combining academics and play, UJP supplements education provided inside the walls of the classroom.

Union of Journalists of the Philippines UP

2012-01-08T06:41:20Z

Kssabillo: /* Activities */

The Union of Journalists of the Philippines - University of the Philippines (UJP-UP) is the student and research arm of the National Union of Journalists of the Philippines (NUJP), one of the leading media guilds in Asia. Based in the University of the Philippines College of Mass Communication, it is an academic political union of students committed to advancing pro-masses and pro-student ideals and promoting advocacy journalism and media ethics.

== History ==
----

The name Union of Journalists of the Philippines was originally used by the NUJP but by the time it decided to register itself as a formal organization, having several chapters in the country, it decided to add "National" and adapt the name National Union of Journalists of the Philippines instead. Until now, the NUJP uses the UJP initials in its logo.

After the terrible fate of the media and the Filipino people during Ferdinand Marcos's Martial Law and with the restoration of democracy in 1986, several Filipino media practitioners founded the NUJP to promote media professionalism and unionism. NUJP recognized that promoting a professional and unified media should start where it matters – students who are to be future media practitioners. In 1988, UJP was formed as its student arm.

== Preamble ==
----

"United in the belief that press freedom and advocacy journalism are vital in mass communication as means in upgrading skills in the profession, promoting people's rights and welfare, taking a conscious stand and form of action on issues, and actively partaking in the struggle for societal change..."

== Activities ==
----

The union is active in issues inside and outside the university. Combining academics and play, UJP supplements education provided inside the walls of the classroom.

When Coffee Spills Over: A Study on Nestle Philippine’s Influence on Major Broadsheets

2011-04-28T02:05:04Z

Kssabillo:

When Coffee Spills Over: A Study on Nestle Philippine’s Influence on Major Broadsheets, Unpublished Undergraduate Thesis, University of the Philippines College of Mass Communication.

Maningat, Jose Carlos L. & Sabillo, Kristine Angeli S. (2009).

Nestle Philippines Inc., a transnational corporation, dominates the local food and beverage industry with its wide spectrum of products from pet food to bottled water. In the mainstream media, it has launched several promotional campaigns and product endorsements, flooding media platforms with a barrage of advertisements. However, this prevalent practice among advertisers has raised questions on media accountability and professional integrity.

With such dilemma at hand, the research study looks into the corporate relationship between Nestle Philippines Inc. and the two major broadsheets (Philippines Daily Inquirer and Philippine Star), and how this kind of relationship influences the content and orientation of the broadsheets.

The study utilizes both quantitative and qualitative methods, through content analysis of articles and advertisements and interviews from different sectors involved.

As Nestle actively controls its image through its advertisements and public relation dealings, it also reinforces media’s dependence to advertisers. Such “accountability” causes practitioners to self-censor stories that may harm the corporate image of an advertiser like Nestle, especially stories related to the Nestle Cabuyao strike that erupted in 2002. Because of this relationship with media, Nestle is able to indirectly influence content and image to the company’s advantage, pushing to the margins pertinent issues that are unfavorable to the company.
