                    [Summary] => Several media groups, organizations and veteran journalists asked the Court of Appeals yesterday to stop the Arroyo administration from imposing censorship and prior restraint on the press.


Although President Arroyo lifted the state of national emergency last Friday, government pressure on the media — particularly radio and television — remained and moves against the media could have a lasting chilling effect, the journalists said.
