How could there not be chaos when we were all in a frenzy putting out the first issue of the newspaper, the 23rd to join the already-saturated market in the early days of the Cory administration? 

Minutes before the meeting, close to 3 p.m. that fateful day 25 years ago, in what would turn out as the very first editors’ meeting – a practice that would hold on for the next two decades and a half – the rain fell.

The story of The Philippine STAR actually began months before July 28, 1986.

Before cameras could capture color, there was The STAR.

Earlier this month, in preparation for the STAR’s anniversary issue, I was reading about the late Max Soliven, former publisher of The Philippine STAR.
