The October 8 Nobel Peace Prize was jointly awarded to Filipino journalist Maria Ratsa and Russian journalist Dimitri Muratop, who fought for freedom of expression.

The two were honored for their work in defending freedom of expression, which is essential for democracy and lasting peace. The Norwegian Nobel Committee has declared that they represent all journalists who stand for democracy and freedom of the press.

Maria Ratsa, 58, is the co-founder and digital leader of the Philippine digital media Rappler, and co-founder of the Russian newspaper Novaya Gazeta.

Rappler Media, which has focused on President Duterte’s controversial anti-drug campaign, is a former CNN correspondent and US citizen who is currently out on bail for cyber defamation charges last year.
