August 29, 2010

News related to the bus hostage taking incident last monday still took most of the space on the Inquirer Front Page today.



The main headline today seems to have given space to some speculation (2 RM awardees from China cancel trip) connecting the non-attendance of two chinese awardees to the upcoming Magsaysay Awards with the hostage crisis. The news itself does not have anything to do with any personality at all.

The other news today:

Chinese photographer wins RM for helping save a river - reports on a Chinese RM awardee.

Last interview: From agitation to despair, death - a report on the last interview with the hostage taker immediately before the rampage at the bus.

Enchanting adventure in Agusan Marsh - a report on a little known mystic tourist attraction.

NASA engineers teach RP kids to ‘reach for the stars’ - a news report about a NASA information project.

Gov’t loses case for citing Wikipedia - a weird case involving Wikipedia.

With too many issues surrounding our government today, the Inquirer seems to have felt there is no need to put any of our national leaders in the spotlight on their front page, perhaps to the relief of both the former and present chief executives of the country.
