The question whether former Agri Chief Lorenzo should be a state witness or be among those persecuted remains unasked in the main headlines today (‘Lorenzo is missing link’. Magsaysay: He can link Arroyo to agri fund scam). The report seems open to the idea of making Lorenzo a state witness which could be questionable since his brother is one of the campaign contributors in Pres. Aquino's Presidential run. There is no doubt that former Arroyo does not benefit from these kinds of news. The question though is whether Pres. Aquino is affected at all, which still remains to be seen. Arroyo -1.
World Cup down to a duel: Spain vs Netherlands - a coverage of the world cup happening in South Africa.
Ilocos, Davao most dangerous for journalists - a story of journalists murders devoid of any national politics, this will be the first time that such stories do not solicit a negative treatment for the former President.
Palace media expert advises Aquino: Don’t be accidentally exciting - a repeat of the positive spin on the "media-savvy" and "candid" President's handling of his recent press conference, even though his answers are actually better characterized as evasive and time wasting. Aquino +1.
Arroyo evades media on Lorenzo, ‘like a mouse’ - a report that perhaps try to contrast the media-savvy Aquino to the escaping-like-a-mouse Arroyo, it also mentioned that the former President is late, perhaps just like Aquino, and nothing much else. Arroyo -1.
Gatdula heads NBI, Tarlaqueño is LTO chief, Banayo to NFA, etcetera - a rundown on new appointments made by the President.
Faeldon ‘surrenders to will of the people’ - a report that related a military person involved in some destabilization or coup attempts in the past administration to the present administration's true mandate. Aquino +1.
De Lima hits ‘special treatment’ for Ampatuan - a report that seemed to forget that DOJ secretary De Lima is now with the DOJ, took the opinion of the secretary at face value, as if she has nothing to do with the issue. De Lima +1.
The scores:
Aquino: 1
De Lima: 1
Arroyo: -2
