September 5, 2010

Again, the hostage crisis took centerstage in the Phil. Daily Inquirer Front Page today.



The main headline (‘I could’ve grabbed him’. Negotiator says he had chance to subdue Mendoza) reports of an additional revelation from the De Lima committee investigation of the hostage incident, a revelation that says someone in the Ombudsman's office (Deputy Ombudsman Emilio Gonzales) earlier asked money from the hostage taker to be able to review his case. Ombudsman -1.

The other news today:

Int’l tour operators still bullish on RP sites - reports of the effects of the hostage taking incident in the tourism industry.

Crisis body abandoned crisis, Isko Moreno tells probers - more report on the De Lima Committee's interivew with those involved in the hostage negotiations giving both Mayor Lim and General Magtibay more explaining to do. Mayor Lim -1. PNP -1.

Thursday Group tends to convicts’ body, soul - a report on a group with an advocacy to tend to sick convicts.

It’s priests vs pros in charity basketball - a report on a fund-raiser event, with catholic priests playing basketball with pro-cagers.

US carrier here; crew to ‘shop, shop, shop, eat, eat, eat’ - a story on the port call of a US aircraft carrier in Manila.

The scores:
Ombudsman: -1
Mayor Lim: -1
PNP: -1
