    Berja, Alice Bernadette F.; Nidoy, Michelle Gay M. (Division of Humanities, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2013-04)
    This descriptive-comparative study aims to determine the program format of the two mainstream TV news programs here in the Philippines: TV Patrol (ABSCBN) and 24 Oras (GMA). There are two types of TV news program format, standard format and tabloid format. Both formats are guided by four elements: segment, news selection, news delivery and language. Survey was used in measuring the knowledge of Ilonggo viewers on the program format of TV Patrol and 24 Oras. The study covered 12 barangays in Iloilo City with 400 respondents. Results of the data-gathering process showed that TV Patrol is in tabloid format while 24 Oras is in standard format. News delivery is the most tabloid element of TV Patrol while Language is the most standard element of 24 Oras. Both formats have implications to the viewers’ knowledge and perception towards the reality of news stories.

    The classification and regulation of AM Radio programs
    Balagosa, Sheena Marie K. (Division of Humanities, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2013-04)
    The study "The Classification and Regulation of AM Radio Programs" provides us the reasons why there is a need to classify and reinforce regulation on AM radio programs based on the MTRCB guidelines, the KBP Code, and the opinion of Ilonggo radio listeners and broadcast practitioners. The study covered 12 barangays with 400 respondents and eight broadcast practitioners from four AM radio stations in Iloilo City. From the results of the study, we have found out that radio stations created program innovations that affected the listeners. There is a need to put classification in order to separate sensitive topics that are not suitable for all listeners, to protect children by knowing which programs they can listen to, to avoid hearing double meaning words, extremely violent stories and sensitive topics about sex. There is a need to reinforce regulation because of the failure to adhere to broadcast standards of some radio programs, KBP's leniency in the implementation of its rules and regulation and the effectiveness of self-regulation. Thus, we have the determined that there is a need to put classification and to reinforce regulation in AM radio programs to protect the moral values of Filipino radio listeners.

    Ilonggo journalists' perspectives and practices on freedom of expression
    Alvero, Frances Kristene (Division of Humanities, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2013-04)
    This descriptive study used the survey method to determine the perspectives and practices of Ilonggo journalists on freedom of expression. In gathering data, purposive sampling was used to determine the respondents. An interview schedule was used as an instrument to gather necessary information for the study since the research is descriptive in design. The study was conducted in Iloilo City from December 2012 until February 2013. Results showed that Ilonggo journalists view freedom of expression as not absolute. They exercise this right (to express opinion and ideas, impart and gather information) but they have to respect and protect the privacy and reputation of a person and of the State along the process. The concept of journalists on freedom of expression, however, is more concerned on the issue of privacy that surrounds a person than on the issue that concerns the society or the national security. When it comes to practicing their freedom of expression, journalists have varying actions on how to deal with certain situations.
