November 25, 2010

For the 2nd time, the altered message purportedly coming from the Pope's took centerstage in the Phil. Daily Inquirer Front Page today.


The headline is a totally off report ‘Condom lesser of 2 evils’. Pope’s stand a seismic shift on Church teachings) on the statement of the Pope on Condoms, picked up by the Inquirer from the Associated Press and New York Times news service. Catholic Church -1.

The other news today:

‘Survey has to say what’s in RH bill’ - a he-says-she-says report from congress on the RH bill and the supposed revised position of the Pope on the use of condoms. Although the title started with the position of the Church on the RH surveys, it actually reminded everyone of the same where it was said more people favor the RH Bill. Catholic Church -1.

But for 2, all jailed Ampatuans elected execs - a report on the Ampatuan family of Maguindanao 1 year after the massacre.

Gossamer sea creature found off PH waters - an AFP report on a unique worm (new specie) found in the Philippine Deep that did not explain why the same specie found its way to France first before we learned about it.

Bong, Jinggoy slam Hayden: He stinks - a senseless report featuring two senators and a disgraced doctor trying to come back with a merchandise named after himself. Revilla +1. EstradaJ +1.

TELLING THE FILIPINO STORY TO THE WORLD. First few days: 3 phones, 40 staffers; no desks for deskmen - some more features on the Inquirer's history. Inquirer +1.

Obama sends nuke aircraft carrier group to Korea - a Reuters report on the tensions in North and South Korea, that covers the US action and the investment market's reactions to the event.

50,000 Filipinos in ROK put on Alert Level 1 - a report on the DFA acting very proactive on the crisis between the two Koreas. DFA +1.

The scores:
Inquirer: 1
DFA: 1
EstradaJ: 1
Revilla: 1
Catholic Church: -2
