Bong Go, the executive assistant of Rodrigo Duterte, claims that the President-elect will not hold press conferences for now. He will make his statements with the use of the state-owned television network named PTV4.

It can be remembered that this is because of the criticisms he received over his remark on journalists' killings. As a result, a global media watchdog named Reporters Without Borders (RSF) urged Philippine media to boycott Duterte's press conferences.

The international group of journalists added that they want a formal and public apology from the President-elect. However, Duterte says that he would not apologize for his harsh statements about journalist killings. “It’s better to tell the truth and agree on the truth rather than play bullshit with journalism,” Duterte said.

He also added that the media "thinks of themselves too much" and regards their profession of "purity despite filled with corruption. “Magboycott kayo! Make it the first time in this country. Do not cover me!” Duterte said.

Another series of reply came from the President-elect: “As a matter of fact, I’m challenging you guys: Kill journalism. Stop journalism in this country. If you are worth your salt, you should accept the challenge. Pag hindi, mababa na ang tingin ko sa inyo. Para kayong takot,” 

“I can lose the presidency anytime, I can lose my life and honor anytime. I will not die when I do not become president. So don’t fuck with me. I’m willing to draw my last card,” Duterte said.
