Philippine Radio Host Fatally Shot on Live Facebook Broadcast
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

A gunman infiltrated the home-based radio station of Juan Jumalon, a provincial news broadcaster, in Calamba town, Misamis Occidental province, and fatally shot him during a live morning broadcast on Sunday. The distressing incident, witnessed by the program’s Facebook audience, captured the assailant snatching Jumalon’s gold necklace before fleeing with an accomplice on a motorcycle.

President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. swiftly condemned the shooting, vowing to bring the perpetrators to justice. Despite efforts to combat such violence, the Philippines remains a perilous place for journalists, with Jumalon becoming the 199th journalist killed in the country since 1986.

The National Union of Journalists of the Philippines, a press freedom watchdog, strongly condemned the attack, emphasizing the shocking nature of the incident taking place within Jumalon’s own residence, which also functioned as the radio station.

While security cameras may offer some insight, the search for the assailant continues. The tragic event serves as a grim reminder of the risks faced by journalists in the Philippines, where political rivalry, widespread access to unlicensed firearms, and deficient law enforcement contribute to an environment of vulnerability for media professionals.
