The hostage crisis that gave the country a huge embarrassment took centerstage in the Inquirer Front Page today.
The main headline today (Aquino, PNP admit mistakes were made. ‘Defects’ in handling hostage crisis probed) basically quotes President Aquino retelling the news story of course setting his administration free from blame. Aquino +1.
The other front page news today:
Mourning and outrage in HK - a report that although did not name President Aquino as bearing the brunt of the outrage, pointed to the Philippine "authorities" in general. Aquino -1.
RP broadcast media under fire - a two sided reportage on the mass media's role in the hostage crisis.
Estrada scraps HK trip - amazingly a report part of which is in defense of President Aquino's seemingly inattentive attitude of the hostage crisis. - Aquino +1.
FAQ: Where was Aquino during crisis? - more of a defense of President Aquino's non appearance during the crisis. Aquino +1.
A ‘major, major’ win nonetheless - quite a huge press push for the Miss Universe Pageant and the Philippine candidate.
The score today surprisingly gave President Aquino good coverage even in the midst of the pathetic man-made disaster that befell the country:
