How Can You Contact Our News Team Today?

Whether you have a tip, a media request, or a partnership idea, here is where your message should land.

Contact the Right Desk

Most newsrooms bury their contact details behind a generic form that funnels everything into one overflowing inbox. We don't. The fastest way to get a useful reply is to send your message to the address that actually handles your kind of request.

Our reporting spans national affairs, regional news, public health, and the slower-burning stories that rarely make the front page. When we covered the operational rollout of Baguio City's COVID-19 contact tracing program, for instance, the most valuable details came from readers who wrote in directly: the people who knew the hiring quotas, the daily salary rates, and which IT systems were doing the data analysis behind the scenes. That story was sharper because someone took the time to reach out.

Tell us what you know. Use the dedicated channels for general questions, press matters, and partnership conversations.

Before you write: A short subject line that names the topic and location helps us route your message to the right desk within hours rather than days.

General Business Inquiries

For everyday questions — correction requests, feedback on a published piece, or a story tip you'd like a reporter to look into, the general inbox is the right door.

We read every message. Tips that include documents, dates, or a named source we can verify move to the top of the pile. When a reader flagged a discrepancy in how a public health program's headcount was being reported, that single email led to a follow-up that ran the same week. Specifics travel faster than outrage.

Story tips and feedback

Share what you've seen, where, and when. Attach what you can. Reach the editorial desk at [email protected].

Corrections

Spotted an error? Point us to the headline and the line in question, and we'll review it against our sourcing promptly.

We aim to acknowledge general inquiries within two business days, though high-volume news cycles can stretch that.

Press and Media Contacts

Journalists, broadcasters, and fellow outlets often reach out to cite our work or request comment. We're glad to help, and we move quickly when a deadline is real.

If you're requesting permission to republish or quote a piece, tell us the article URL and how you intend to use it. For interview requests, name the topic and your filing deadline up front. A producer working on a regional broadcast once sent us a one-line request with a same-day deadline and the relevant story link attached — that's the version that gets answered before lunch.

Direct press and media correspondence to [email protected]. This inbox is monitored on business days and prioritized when a publication deadline is stated clearly.

Note for media: Our editors can speak to our reporting and methodology, but we don't provide unpublished source material or contact details for the people in our stories.

Partnership Opportunities

Some of our strongest coverage has come from working alongside people who bring something we lack — data access, regional knowledge, or technical expertise. We treat partnerships the same way we treat sources: carefully, and with editorial independence intact.

We're open to a few kinds of collaboration. Research organizations sometimes share datasets that sharpen a public health or business-economy story. Local correspondents extend our reach into communities we can't cover from a desk. And syndication agreements let our regional reporting travel further than it otherwise would.

Data and research

If you hold datasets relevant to the public interest, we'll discuss how to report on them responsibly.

Local correspondents

Reporters with deep regional roots can pitch ongoing or one-off coverage arrangements.

Syndication

Outlets interested in republishing our work under agreed terms can open a conversation here.

Send partnership proposals to [email protected] with a short summary of what you're offering and what you hope to gain. One honest caveat: we vet every partnership against our editorial standards, so the review can take longer than a simple reply — independence is worth the wait. To understand how we handle your information once you write in, see our Privacy Policy, and for the ground rules of working with us, our Terms of Service.
