The headline (Floods bring more misery. Heavy rains spread to W. Visayas; 7 drown) is a collection of reports on the rains and floods happening around the central and southern regions of the country, with mention of the President about to do a whirlwind visit to those areas, but without a hint of positive or negative connotations.
The other front page news reports today:
Trillanes: Garcia set to talk but got scared - Sens. Trillanes and Cayetano (as well as a couple of congressmen's) statements given importance on the Garcia plea bargain, bashing the office of the Ombudsman's explanations of the same. Sen. Trillanes insinuates that there are people handling the plunder-charged general, most probably referring to former President Arroyo or her First Gentleman, but did not actually say so. Trillanes +1. Ombudsman -1.
‘For better or for worse,’ come hell or high water - a belated report on a wedding that went on despite the flood and rains that could have soaked everyone, thanks to the AFP rescue team. AFP +1.
Metro Manila commuters get reprieve from bus fare hike - a reprieve that was not credited to the President.
‘Don’t rush sale of realty jewels’ - a compilation of mostly negative reaction on the possible sale of the two EDSA (AFP and PNP) camps.
AFP honors four search, rescue heroes - some members of the AFP and the PNP given reprieve from negative treatment via this news. AFP +1. PNP +1.
Once-in-century floodings hit Australia’s third largest city - a report on a disaster happening in Australia.
Aquino gets himself a new toy–a Porsche - a report without an opinion on the President's new toy, an actual Porsche.
The scores:
AFP: 2
Trillanes: 1
PNP: 1
Ombudsman: -1
