Eugenia Apostol, a Filipino publisher who transformed her women’s magazine into a platform for brave and hard-hitting journalism that helped turn public opinion against the country’s dictator, President Ferdinand Marcos, and who remained a force for independent journalism for decades, died on Sunday in Manila. She was 100.
Her death was confirmed by the Ramon Magsaysay Award Foundation, a Manila-based nonprofit that honored Ms. Apostol in 2006 for her work in journalism and press freedoms.
