It appears that the National Press Club is an extension propaganda arm of Malacanang. The subdued press freedom mural is total revision of historical events. Philipine bogus President Gloria Arroyo is best remembered as the suppressor of civil liberties in the Philippines.


A mural on the history of press freedom in the Philippines commissioned by one of the country's oldest press organizations is creating controversy after several portions of the final artwork was altered without the artists' consent before its unveiling last week.

The Neo-Angono Artists Collective said the National Press Club made "slipshod alterations" on the 8x32 foot oil on canvas artwork several days before it was unveiled before President Arroyo on October 26. ABS-CBN News
