"Let's be positive about our country! Let's move forward as a people! Let's help our nation be great!"
The quote above is from the "Why GNP?" page of Good News Pilipinas (GNP). It is also stated that "GNP has no agenda!" And looking at the contributors—most of whom are journalists—it does seem that none of them are identified with the current administration or the fragmented opposition.
Then, of course, there are the articles. Some articles are essentially summaries of articles that have already appeared in newspapers, but there are a few that seem to have been written for the site. It's just too bad that most of the articles are not credited to authors or websites. For instance, "100 Things About Being Pinoy" seems to have come from "100 Best Things About Being Pinoy."
I hope the people behind the site get around to giving credit where credit is due. Having said that, GNP is still worth visiting because what's so good about the site is that it puts the good news together. And that's not something you can say about most newspapers—or even blogs =)
