The headline (SC junks Vizconde appeal. Lauro may name 3 SC tipsters on Carpio) gives more controversy to the SC than she would have wanted. Although it gave fair space to the considerations of the court, it nevertheless placed the institution in a situation wherein she is forced to defend herself. SC -1.
The other Front Page news:
Car dealers’ murders: ‘Even Satan will be horrified’ - a story of a crime, whose one of the victim's father gave President Aquino and former first lady now Congresswoman Imelda Marcos some positive words. Aquino +1. Imelda +1.
Reyes: I am not ‘powerful man’ behind Carlos Garcia - a report on the former AFP Chief, former DND Sec. Angelo Reyes forced to defend himself from accusations, still comes out negative for him and the whole AFP. AFP -1. Reyes -1.
Drop election cases, Brillantes tells own firm. Potential income loss: P65.5M - a report that gave the new COMELEC chairman a good stance from which he can defend himself against accusations of conflict of interest. Brillantes +1.

Denuded forests blamed for La Niña deluge - more stories of death and disaster because of La Nina and some human excesses, while the weather agency remaining scot-free from blame when they still do not have the capability to predict the amount of rainfall.
Excesses of Tunisia’s ‘Imelda’ fuel uprising - an AP report in Tunisia that mentioned our very own formerly despised first lady now Congresswoman Imelda Marcos as being rapacious. Imelda -1.
