Manila Bulletin is the second oldest newspaper published in the Philippines. It was founded on February 2, 1900. The newspaper became a chronicler of news and inspiring stories about every Filipino – the youth and toddlers, the elderly, the farmers and fisher folks, the religious and socio-civic groups, and eminent world figures who made it into the news. It has lived up to its reputation as “exponent of Philippine progress” through fair and accurate news and features and in keeping the public fully informed during the most difficult and trying times.
