It's Me, Bok!
Forty years of Philippine journalism in the eyes of a veteran defense reporter
With four decades of experience covering defense and politics in the Philippines, veteran journalist and Pulitzer Prize awardee Manuel Mogato imparts life and career lessons in his memoir “It’s Me, Bok!”
Mogato never intended to become a reporter. He did not even imagine he would attain the ‘holy grail’ of journalism at the tail end of his active career many years later. Mogato in his memoir narrates his journey from filing stories on a typewriter or through a landline in some far-flung province to working as a correspondent for one of the most prestigious wire agencies.
With “It’s Me, Bok!”, Mogato reveals why being a journalist is the best job in the world.
