    The practice of responsible journalism in the newscasting format of TV Patrol Panay
    Bangud, Colen D.; Villacastin, Gretchen C.; Villanuvea, Froilene C. (Division of Humanities, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2014-03)
    It is often a battle between public service and public interest that calls on the core standard of responsible journalism. TV Patrol Panay is a tabloid newscast format, a form of television programming that has a strong leaning towards sensationalizing news. This research, however, seeks to find a systematic pattern as to whether a tabloid news program, such as TV Patrol Panay, does practice responsible journalism, despite the common presumption about tabloid practices. A systematic quantitative content analysis was used to scrutinize the practice of responsible journalism in the tabloid newscasting of TV Patrol Panay. In the endeavour to measure the concentration of responsible journalism practice in TV Patrol Panay's tabloid newscasting, a quantitative content analysis was applied in the calculation of the news program’s violations against the Journalist's Code of Ethics. The same procedure was applied to the calculation of the news program's tendencies towards tabloid practices. The results were then given percentual readings and were qualitatively analyzed and discussed. Results reveal that TV Patrol Panay practices responsible journalism despite its tabloid news format. Nonetheless, its news program contains negative aspects of tabloid and follows the descriptive format of tabloid. TV Patrol Panay in tabloid newscasting format practices responsible journalism. Its news program contains negative aspects of tabloid and follows the descriptive format of tabloid. It can hereby be deduced that although the tabloid news program is associated with the turning down of high standards of journalism (Alotaibi, 2013), the results showed that not all news programs that are tabloid in format do not and refuse to bear with the high ethical standards of television journalism.

    Exploring gendered experiences and job satisfaction of female public lawyers in Iloilo
    Balagosa, Andrea Marie D.; De la Cruz, Kish S.; Delen, Julie-Ann G.; Estocapio, Sharen Ilyich G. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2023-07)
    Females are now well-represented in the traditionally male-dominated field of the legal profession. However, in the Philippines, gender discrimination, such as inequality in hierarchical positions and work assignments, still prevails in the legal field. In addition, the multiple burdens females face hinders them from finding effective work-life balance and affect the general well-being of female public lawyers. Hence, this study aimed to explore female public lawyers' experiences and challenges that affect their job satisfaction. The study also examined the Public Attorney's Office (PAO) policies and practices to ensure gender equity in the workplace. The researchers utilized a descriptive research design and a mixture of qualitative and quantitative methods to gather in-depth insights and provide a more comprehensive analysis. The research participants were selected through Purposive Sampling and were composed of female public lawyers working in Iloilo. The study revealed that female lawyers in PAO believe they neither experience any form of gender discrimination nor maltreatment in the office. However, the study results also indicate that patriarchal structures and views still abound in their workplaces which contribute to overall job satisfaction, along with multiple burdens, and socio-demographic variations. The researchers recommend that the PAO take further action regarding its institutional efforts to employ a more gendersensitive and inclusive approach to ensuring a healthy working dynamic and environment.
