Although the title of the main banner today seems to mock those who are whining about losing in the elections Name names, losers told, the report actually seems to be like a reprint of the past complaints aired everywhere so many times already. I guess there is no stopping these kinds of news, huh? I am not sure if this news is negative to the COMELEC itself, or even to SMARTMATIC. I am sure though that the whole country does not benefit from anything like this. I say we either should show proof, or move on. Please.
The other news on the Inquirer Front Page follows:
Give Aquino a break, says antismoking group - this news would not have made it for a few days in a row while the mass media is still campaigning for Noynoy. But now that he is presumptive President-elect, mass media enjoys covering the sticky subject of Noynoy's smoking addiction. Aquino -1.
Five suspects in party-list scam charged - This news turns out to be a negative news on Mike Velarde's (of El Shaddai) party list group Buhay. Velarde -1.
Canvass continues by hand, tallies pasted on board - although it did not actually paint it so, this is a news showing practically how congress is actually part of the country's problems. The last part of the news has some positive reference to VP winning candidate Binay, though. Binay +1.
Security aides of Aquino ally shot at close range - although mentioned Aquino has not give favor to him as the report is a plain presentation of what was learned on the field.
SC affirms ’07 ruling: Sugar lands also under CARP - although dealt mainly with the ruling gave an insinuation about the situation at Hacienda Luisita. The SC ruling was made last April. The news report did not say why the story is released nor covered just now. Aquino -1.
WHATEVER HAPPENED…? Tragedy in the merry month of May - recounts the story of a boat accident a year ago. This news is negative to the regulatory body, Marina, who seems not to be doing anything about safety of sea travel. I am not sure what prompted this news report though and suspect something is up over at the agency. Marina -1.
Abu Sayaff member to plead guilty in the US - there is no online copy of this report and I have not read it.
The scores today:
Binay: 1
Velarde: -1
Marina: -1
Aquino: -2
It surprises me now that Aquino in this rare occasion got the whip from the Inquirer Front Page.
