“[PRs] shouldn’t be afraid to ask if they would like to clarify if a person is still on the beat or if the assignment has been changed,” Regine Cabato, Manila Reporter at The Washington Post, shares with Telum Media.

Regine is no stranger to writing some of the Philippines’ most compelling news feature stories. She’s covered the aftermath in Marawi. Her year-long investigation into a priest’s alleged sexual abuse in Visayas made the front page of The Washington Post.

Beyond seeing journalism as a vocation, Regine shares actionable tips on how PR practitioners can better engage with journalists. She also shares her Campus Journalism Lab initiative for budding journalists in the Philippines.
