The main banner today surely gets into the reader's nerves (Meralco rates up again. Power firm blames IPPs for increase) but it does not necessarily pin the blame on the present administration.
The other news on the Front Page today:
‘Extrajudicial killings not my gov’t policy’ - the President's side took more space today on the subject of supposed extra-judicial killings. The topic is not (yet) blamed on the Aquino administration, although space is given to comments by left leaning Teddy Casino who took a dig at the President for taking aim at "wang-wangs" rather than working immediately on "bang-bangs" (perhaps meaning murders). I can say the tone of the news is still mellow and giving President Aquino some benefit of the doubt. Aquino +1.
Traders’ most watched: PBA chair heads BoC - is a somewhat shallow story on how the new BoC chief got the job, devoid of any opinion.
Gotcha on TV! Binay, red-faced, says sorry - is a dig on Binay for not following the President's orders. Binay -1.
Aquino ally seeks to cut pork by half; no way, says Arroyo party mate - a story that gave the Liberal party somewhat of a positive point of view, but not necessarily connecting to Aquino. LP +1.
DepEd chief learns first lesson: Handling media - A repeat of previous stories on the media gaffe by DepEd Sec. Luistro plus some coverage on his plans to go all over the Department to learn everything on it, turns out to be a neutral treatment.
Justice is surfed: SC taps Twitter, Facebook - an SC press release on its attempt to be closer to the people via social networking internet sites. SC +1.
Palace backs Romulo on DFA extensions - a bit of a negative take on the DFA situation with their chief forced to defend himself from critisms.
The score today:
Aquino: 1
LP: 1
SC: 1
Binay: -1
New VP Binay found himself in rare occasion alone in negative territory.
