With nothing much to talk about about the new President, the Philippine Daily Inquirer is reduced to following up on the plans on the inauguration.
While we still have not heard the specific details on how to alleviate poverty or stop corruption in our impoverished nation, the main headline today talked to QuezonIII, a supposed historian (probably purported so because his name is part of history), on the preparations for the Presidential inauguration (No parade for Aquino on June 30 inaugural) which we all have heard already too much about. Of course, the point of view coming from QuezonIII, who is obviously an Aquino supporter but was usually portrayed in the mass media as an independent analyst, is purely positive to the incoming President. Aquino +1.
The other news in the front page today are as follows:
Opposition icon Eva Kalaw, 90, still has lots of living to do - a feature about on Kalaw had a short dig on both Arroyo and Aquino, more so on the former, but not enough to merit a count.
Mike Arroyo spinal surgery a success; now, he talks of golf - is a coverage on the First Gentleman without so much surprisingly of any negative treatment. Amazingly though, from the time the surgery is announced, no one has mentioned the exact ailment the FG is having which warrants the intervention nor the exact procedure he is to undergo. I suspect it is one those less invasive techniques he is subjected to as the report says he is awake just 1 hour after the surgery. If it is so, it is a actually too much of a stretch to call it a "surgery".
FATHER'S DAY: Girl survives massacre but finds a father and a name - is a story about a little girl and her adoptive father.
First prison orchestra sounds, feels like freedom to cons - is the latest on a prison talents program.
US envoy hosts night of music and all that jazz - a news about an event hosted by the US Ambassador and also a promotion of the band that played jazz in the same event.
The scores today:
Aquino: 1
