The main headline give Aquino a thumbs up with seeming approval from the biggest economies in the world (US, China, Japan congratulate P-Noy : 3 biggest economic powers vow help). Aquino +1.
Meanwhile, the other news in the front page today are as follows:
Transition team seeks Arroyo-Aquino limo ride - is a presumptive title on what is still an open transition script on the day of the new President's oathtaking. No one benefitted from the report.
Aquino receives congrats call from Arroyo, feels ‘awkward’ - reports on Aquino's feeling of awkwardness on Arroyo's congratulatory telephone call. Although obviously Aquino sounds like a showbiz personality trying to stir an intrigue, the Inquirer did not take note of that.
How Binay did it: Chiz, Mar, seniors, frat brods is a story coming purely from Binay's camp on his win. Binay +1.
Comelec invites critics to dinner and drinks - is a report mostly coming from the COMELEC's point of view. COMELEC +1.
Smoke signals up over Times St., White House - is the Inquirer reverse story on their yesterday's internet feature about the smoking situation of the two Presidents, Aquino and Obama. While yesterday, it was only Aquino left standing alone in the smoking room, today, the Inquirer seems to be reporting that Obama is not totally smoke-free. I say Aquino +1.
Aquino: June 12 must be immovable holiday - is a report where Aquino promotes the idea that Arroyo has changed the day when Independence is commemorated, although he himself knows that the celebration is still on June 12. Aquino +1.
Aquino sister to Sison: Say when, where I met Arroyo, such lie - is a coverage on a denial of something which was not covered by the mass media. Aquino +1.
The scores today:
Aquino: 4
Binay: 1
COMELEC: 1
Indeed, the Inquirer Front Page went all out to give a good picture to the incoming President today.
