As if a foreign country's approval of the presumptive president is of supreme importance to our society, and as if yesterday's positive treatment of the meeting between Aquino and the US envoy is not enough to illustrate such (a href="http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/inquirerheadlines/nation/view/20100523-271542/China-Spain-hail-Aquinos-poll-victory">China, Spain hail Aquino's poll victory), today's news is more of the same, this time including the congratulatory letters coming from the Chinese ambassador and Spain's prime minister. Surely, this headline news is a press release from Sen. Aquino's camp. Aquino +1.
The other news in the Phil. Daily Inquirer Front Page are as follows:
With ‘grace of office’ comes every blessing needed - this is a news report on the interviews with Aquino religious priests and a nun supporters. Aquino +1.
Oprah sent her TV crew to film Charice baptism - is a simple coverage on the singer's baptism.
Ex-CJ Puno says no to Aquino’s DOJ offer - is both a positive and negative treatment of Puno and does seems not to have given anyone any favor.
‘Arroyo won’t need begging bowl for pork’ - is a news with negative treatment on Arroyo's supposed use of pork for political ends and a supposed departure from the practice. Of course we all know that if there is a departure from previous pork utilization practices, the interviewed presumptive Speaker would not have been confident to get the post at all. So I say it is a pure negative spin against the present administration. Arroyo -1.
Some enchanted evening, Fr. Reuter found love in RP - is a pure news coverage of a beloved honorary "Filipino" priest.
VILLANUEVA VS VILLANUEVA Court to decide matters of heart SPECIAL REPORT - is a continuation of yesterday's feature on the plight of an old woman and the fight for her custody.
Todays score goes:
Aquino: 2
Arroyo: -1
Again, Aquino enjoys positive treatment from the front page, while the whip stays with Arroyo.
