The headline today (More imported rice here. Militants, senators: Give surplus staple to poor) talks about on the oversupply of rice, while some sectors try to ride the headlines with their own statements. Arroyo -1.
The other Front Page news today are as follows:
Day of surprises for released Marine colonel - reports about the release of a Colonel who figured in a standoff apparently because of their complaints of corruption and election cheating by the previous administration. Arroyo -1.
Filipinos taken for a ‘Joyride’ - a report on a supposed book about former President Arroyo's infrastructure accomplishments turn out to be a press interview with the new DPWH secretary. Arroyo -1.
A mouthful from Aquino: 19 more spokespersons - more reports on a solidified communications group for the Administration, spinning it into getting the government closer to the people. Aquino +1.
NEDA chief sees 8% growth in economy - a confusing growth projection, basically saying growth will be the effect of improved governance but decline of 7% in 2nd half of the year versus the 1st half due to the initial effect of election spending. Aquino +1.
DPWH cancels 19 ‘midnight deals’ worth over P934M - the DPWH saving the day versus the Arroyo administration's midnight deals. Arroyo -1.
Mikey Arroyo faces disqualification charges in SC, House - Although the Arroyo son is given space to react to the disqualification charges against him, this report is all about how bad he is and the circumstances of his congressional seat. Arroyo (Mikey) -1.
Facebook tags serial killer suspect; ‘NPA’ ruse leads to arrest - a report about an arrest of a suspected serial killer.
Joker: Truth commission is doomed - a question posed to the still to be organized truth commission coming from a lawyer/senator.
The scores today amazingly shows that former President Arroyo still hugs the front page with negative news, as if she is still in Malacanang. Meanwhile, it seems nothing can go wrong for President Aquino.
Aquino: 2
Arroyo: -4
Arroyo (Mikey): -1
