01:16.6
Mga kabatas natin, simple lang naman yan.
01:18.7
Yung ating batas, no, yung batas natin, sa pamamagitan ng Supreme Court,
01:23.4
din-define naman kung sino talaga ang isang public personality.
01:28.1
Well, siyempre, pag tayo, mga kabatas natin, titignan natin kung sino o paano ka may tuturing na public personality
01:38.4
kapag hindi natin babasahin yung, yung, ah, desisyon ng Supreme Court.
01:45.1
Hindi tayo titingin sa batas.
01:46.6
Ang iisipin natin ng mga public personality, mga artista lang.
01:50.1
O yung mga todong sikat.
01:52.0
Yung sinasabi nila.
01:53.3
Nakita ko dun sa, ano, sa, ano, ni Kayo, mga kabatas natin.
01:56.3
Itong si Marie Cordoon, parang may...
01:58.1
Ah, around 7,000 followers, mga kabatas natin.
02:02.0
That's substantial already.
02:03.6
Pero, huwag nating i-base sa following.
02:06.4
I-base natin sa definition ng batas.
02:10.6
Ngayon, sa panahon ng social media, mga kabatas natin, we all know who are public personalities na rin.
02:16.0
Si Marie Cordoon, alam natin, CEO din siya.
02:18.6
Pero tulad ng sinabi ko, let's not base it on the number of followers.
02:23.4
Kasi pag i-base natin sa number of followers yan, sasabihin nila marami yan, konti yan.
02:28.1
Well, the argument will be endless.
02:31.7
Alam nyo kung bakit?
02:32.7
Kasi nga, opinion lang eh.
02:35.1
Pero, if we talk about the law already, yung batas natin, yung pag-uusapan, at titingin tayo sa Supreme Court decisions,
02:42.6
we can actually define who is a public personality.
02:47.0
Ngayon, itong 50 million na maletahis kasi na sinasabi nila,
02:50.8
parang nagkaroon daw ng defamation o paninirang puri doon sa pagkataon ng isang mga kabatas.
02:58.1
Ang private personality.
02:59.8
At least, yan yung pinapaikot nila.
03:02.0
Na narrative nila.
03:04.2
So, let's talk about GR number 128959.
03:09.4
Ito po ay dumabas noong September 30, 2005.
03:15.1
Ito po ay, ano, decision ng Supreme Court's 2nd Division,
03:20.1
Siriyaki Boy Gingging versus the Honorable Court of Appeals and the People of the Philippines.
03:25.6
So, let's jump to it, mga kabatas natin.
03:28.1
Dito may mga definition, no, ng, ano, mga kabatas natin, ano,
03:34.0
ng pagiging isang public figure.
03:38.6
Ang pinakamaganda nating unang tignan dito, ito, no, nakalagay dito.
03:46.6
Tignan niya yan, mga kabatas natin, no.
03:49.4
Consider the law of libel.
03:51.3
Here we have an explicit system of free speech tiers.
03:54.9
To simplify a complex body of law,
03:57.7
in the highest, most speech-protective tier is libelous speech directed against a public figure.
04:06.2
Sinabi dito, mga kabatas natin, no, na kapag ikaw ay nagsasalita ng isang bagay tungkol sa isang public personality,
04:16.0
tignan niyo yung ginamit na terminology dito ng Supreme Court.
04:19.9
In the highest, most speech-protective tier,
04:23.5
ibig sabihin, ang pinaka-prinoprotektahan,
04:27.7
nakarapatan ng isang tao,
04:30.1
when it comes to libel,
04:31.7
is speaking in relation to public figures.
04:35.5
Kumbaga, mga kabatas natin, sa halimaw, class S yan.
04:40.5
Prinoprotektahan ng batas ng todo,
04:42.7
yung mga tao na nagsasalita para o laban sa mga public personality.
04:49.0
Nakita niyo yan, terminology na ginamit ng,
04:51.6
ng ano, mga kabatas natin, ng Supreme Court dito.
04:54.7
The highest, most speech-protective tier,
04:58.2
class S na halimaw yan, mga kabatas natin,
05:00.7
yan, yung parang prinoprotektahan ng todo,
05:03.7
is libelous speech.
05:05.7
Isipin niyo, libelous na.
05:07.7
Ginamit pa yung term na libelous, ha?
05:09.7
Directed against a public figure.
05:15.7
Parang sinasabi ng Supreme Court dito,
05:17.7
yan ang pinaka-prinoprotektahan namin.
05:19.7
Yung mga libelous speech na dinedirect against public figures,
05:24.7
yan ang pinakamataas na tier na prinoprotektahan namin.
05:26.7
Yan ang pinaka-prinoprotektahan ng karapatang pantao.
05:31.7
Government can allow libel plaintiffs to recover damages as a result of speech
05:36.7
if only if the speaker had actual malice.
05:39.7
Yan yung sinasabi ko sa inyo, mga kabatas natin.
05:41.7
That is, the speaker must have known that the speech was false
05:44.7
or must have been recklessly indifferent to its truth or falsity.
05:48.7
This standard means that the speaker is protected against libel suits
05:52.7
unless he knew he was lying or he was truly libelous.
05:55.7
He was truly foolish to think he was telling the truth.
05:59.7
Prinoprotektahan ng Supreme Court yan.
06:02.7
The terminology, mga kabatas natin, it's really very...
06:08.7
Anong tawag doon?
06:10.7
Emphasis was really given to libelous speech directed against public figures.
06:18.7
Highest most speech protective tier
06:23.7
is libelous speech directed against a public figure.
06:26.7
Tingnan niyo dito, mga kabatas natin.
06:30.7
Tingnan niyo dito, mga kabatas natin.
06:32.7
These standards...
06:34.7
These standards means that the speaker is protected against libelous suits
06:37.7
unless he knew that he was lying or he was truly blabla.
06:40.7
Ay, nabasa ko na pala yan.
06:41.7
Ito, mga kabatas natin.
06:43.7
A person counts as a public figure.
06:46.7
Ito yung definition ng batas natin.
06:50.7
Ito. Ito yung definition ng batas natin.
06:53.7
A person counts as a public figure, number one,
06:56.7
if he is a public official in the sense that he works for the government.
07:03.7
Ops, si Rafi Tulfo, yan.
07:06.7
Number two, if while not employed by the government,
07:09.7
he otherwise has pervasive fame or notoriety in the community.
07:16.7
Ibig sabihin, mga kabatas natin, kahit hindi ka,
07:20.7
hindi ka, mga kabatas natin,
07:22.7
government official,
07:24.7
kapag ikaw ay sumikat.
07:29.7
Like for example, lumabas ka sa Rafi Tulfo in action.
07:34.7
Willingly, you went there to Rafi Tulfo in action.
07:37.7
At dahil sa pagpunta mo sa Rafi Tulfo in action,
07:40.7
sumikat ka sa buong Pilipinas.
07:42.7
Kaya natopic ka ng mga tao.
07:44.7
You become a public figure.
07:50.7
Two and three, mga kabatas natin.
07:52.7
Nag-a-anong sila?
07:55.7
If he has thrust himself into some particular controversy
08:00.7
in order to influence its resolution.
08:03.7
Kapag ikaw ay napasok sa isang kontrobersiya,
08:06.7
nagiging public personality ka.
08:09.7
Like for example, nawalan ka ng 50 milyon na money.
08:13.7
Ibig sabihin, mga kabatas natin,
08:15.7
like for example, nawalan ka ng 50 milyon na maleta.
08:22.7
Is the 15 million maleta heist a controversy?
08:27.7
Do you become famous by appearing in Rafi Tulfo in action
08:30.7
as the person who lost a 50 million maleta?
08:39.7
So what's the argument?
08:42.7
What's the argument?
08:43.7
Hindi siya pasok sa one and two.
08:47.7
Pero pasok siya sa two and three.
08:52.7
There's no other way to construe this.
08:55.7
He otherwise has pervasive fame or notoriety in the community.
08:59.7
Paano siya nakilala?
09:01.7
Paano siya sumikat?
09:03.7
If he has thrust himself into some particular controversy,
09:06.7
nagkaroon ng kontrobersiya tungkol sa kanya,
09:08.7
naging public personality siya.
09:16.7
Consider the law of libel.
09:19.7
Consider the law of libel.
09:23.7
In the highest, most speech-protective tier
09:26.7
is libelous speech directed against a public figure.
09:33.7
Yan yung pinoprotektahan ng batas natin.
09:36.7
Tignan niyo pa dito mga kabatas natin.
09:45.7
PTYLTD versus Kapulong.
09:47.7
A public figure has been defined as a person who by his accomplishments.
09:53.7
Ang iniisip kasi ng mga ibang tao ay hindi siya senador katulad ni Rafi Tulfo.
10:00.7
Private individual yan.
10:04.7
Mga kabatas natin.
10:05.7
Ang public figure hindi lang kung ikaw ay isang artista
10:10.7
o kaya isang public official o senador katulad ni Rafi Tulfo.
10:15.7
Kung may naa-accomplish ka
10:17.7
katulad ng mga CEO natin.
10:19.7
Itong si na Glenda tsaka si Rosmar.
10:21.7
Public personality sila because of their accomplishments.
10:24.7
What are their accomplishments?
10:26.7
Kumikita sila ng malaki doon sa mga negosyo nila.
10:33.7
Paano ka sumikat?
10:34.7
Lumabas ka sa Rafi Tulfo in action.
10:35.7
Kilala ka na ngayon lahat ng mga araming tao.
10:46.7
We just have to look into the law.
10:49.7
And we will know.
10:50.7
And there's no room for arguments already.
10:59.7
Or by adopting a profession or calling which gives the public a legitimate interest in his doings.
11:07.7
Kung nagpa-Rafi Tulfo in action ka.
11:11.7
You become a public personality.
11:13.7
Because people have legitimate interest in your doings na.
11:18.7
In your character.
11:20.7
You become a public personage.
11:24.7
He is in other words a celebrity.
11:30.7
Obviously to be included in this category are those who have achieved some degree of reputation.
11:36.7
By appearing before the public.
11:39.7
If you appear before 27 million subscribers.
11:42.7
Do you think you did not appear beyond the public?
11:45.7
And do you think dahil sobrang viral yung iyong episode sa Rafi Tulfo in action.
11:51.7
You are still considered a private individual?
11:57.7
It is the law that is talking here.
12:03.7
As in the case of an actor, a professional baseball player, a pugilist.
12:10.7
Hindi ko alam ano.
12:11.7
Or any other entertainer.
12:14.7
The list is however broader than this.
12:17.7
It includes public officers, famous inventors and explorers, war heroes and even ordinary soldiers.
12:24.7
An infant prodigy and no less than the personage of the grand exalted ruler of a lodge.
12:31.7
Ito mga kapatid natin.
12:33.7
Ruler lang siya ng isang lodge.
12:35.7
Hindi pa nga siya ganung kasikat eh.
12:37.7
Eh ikaw pa kaya na lumabas na Rafi Tulfo in action tapos nag viral yung pinakita mo.
12:42.7
Sa tingin mo private personality ka pa rin?
12:47.7
You cease to be a private individual once you gain fame or notoriety by appearing in a particular platform that is available to the public.
12:59.7
Ah pugilist boxer.
13:01.7
Okay. Thank you. Thank you Graham.
13:03.7
Sikat. Thank you.
13:05.7
Ganun pala yun. Yun pala yun.
13:10.7
It includes in short anyone who has arrived in a position where public attention is focused upon him as a person.
13:19.7
Tapos na ang usapan.
13:21.7
In short sabi ng Supreme Court dito kahit sino na nakarating sa isang posisyon kung saan
13:29.7
yung attention ng publiko na pukaw mo.
13:40.7
There's no argument here.
13:44.7
It includes in short anyone who has arrived at a position where public attention is focused upon him as a person.
14:05.7
Marami siyang invento time eh.
14:11.7
What argument do we have?
14:12.7
We don't have any arguments anymore.
14:18.7
GR number 128959.
14:20.7
September 30, 2005.
14:22.7
Si Ryako Boy Gingging versus Honorable Court of Appeals and the People of the Philippines.
14:35.7
Mga kapatid natin.
14:36.7
Maraming salamat po.
14:37.7
At syempre tulad ng laging sinasabing matulog po tayo ng mahimbing dahil alam natin na yung natutulog ng mahimbing siya yung laging panalo.
