The CMMA, which began in 1978, is an annual event in honor of media practitioners �for their outstanding contribution to God and to the Catholic Church.�

Its criteria for judging is based on the late Pope John Paul II�s Ethics in Media and includes: love for God; love for truth; respect for environment; promotion of positive Filipino values; and love for family and life.

The 32nd CMMA was held last October 13, at the UST Medicine Auditorium.
