The headline news (Support for ex-auditor Heidi Mendoza snowballs. Hailed for raising Filipinos a notch higher) no doubt threw its objectivity and gave their positive opinion on the supposed whistle blower - auditor against the generals, giving also space to statements from many personalities to support their view. The report did not mention what proof she has against the generals though. Perhaps the paper thought statements are enough while solid proof is not important. Aquino +1. De Lima +1. Casino +1. Catholic Church +1.The other front page news reports today:
SHATTERED IMAGE. Soldiers dismayed by reports of huge ‘pabaon’ for top brass - a report saying even soldiers are dismayed by the bad generals. AFP +1.
