I was hoping, the big league would include the Monsod couple (Winnie and Christian or may be Toby, their daughter), former chief justice Hilario Davide, one of the country's most loved and respected solon, Jovito Salonga or may be on those honest cabbie drivers, SM Megamall's very helful security staff, or that MMDA guy who got publicly humiliated for doing his job, 2013’s bar topnotcher, Ramon Magsaysay HS’s class valedictorian, some industrialist or technocrat from Makati Business Club or the Philippine Chamber, a migrant worker who has been steadily supporting his family and our economy through his valued remittances, a retired teacher from some remote province …. Andame naman kasi … big wigs eh, I thought it was about reputation and credibility .
“bigatin endorsers nyo po sir … coco martin … sarah Geronimo … julia montes!” (and who the fuck is that julia montes????)
I have very little … miniscule actually … actually microscopic … respect to this pretty face pinky. The few times I have watched her interviews, her analyses and commentaries, even her punch lines in between takes or may be some “breathing moments” during takes … she is so shallow and lacks the sincerity to make an effective statement (popular or contrary). Am sure that was scripted. That wasn’t adlib for God’ sake. Even Jessica Soho reads her script while her hair is being done. While it is fed may be by a struggling nameless equally shallow research team … no one can force you to degrade yourself on national TV (pucha I wont make that silly statement not even in the drinking table) … by carelessly "bobo"ly give that run down knowing that as a broadcast journalist whatever you say and do especially in national television ... Yes, does, --- affect how the viewing public would form their opinion --- and especially during this critical time …. eleksyon!
This is so elementary … does it have to be spelled out … media’s responsibility in educating a nation? Especially with an electorate with very limited understanding, very little commitment (if not mundane or none at all) towards nation building.
My maid was watching and a registered voter eh maka coco martin eh di kilig na kilig. So now I have to make some explaining to her. Damn! There goes my blog time and champorado moments!
I bet Gabriela Silang was turning in her grave. That woman of that stature, education, wealth, opportunity, thus, power was such a pinkie.
So to me, this news reader will always be a starlet in news and public affairs. If i were her, mag aartista na lang akio. 42 plang sya, pwede pa sa mother cougar roles LOL
Muntik ng maapetukhan disposition ko sa champorado ko dahil sa interview na ito. BUti na lang at hindi naman. LOL Salamat kay Bok Rowena P. Ebriega sa very entertaining chat .. she actually saved my Sunday (and my champorado moments) after a glimpse of that crappy interview.
***(seriously ... I just turned 43, my circle of influence may be limited, I am proud to say I'm doing my part to the best that I can ... I still dream for this country to shape up, for my daughter's sake, and my daughter's children, and my daughter's children's children ... "election" is that chance to start that change. Media and education are instrumental to support that change. Am not gonna sit down and put up with this crap ... I'm sending this out ... and to ABS CBN! :) )
***eto nag dahilan why my UP education was aborted at kung bakit na bartolina ako sa 'Gapo hora horada ng nanay ko. :) I respect my mother's wisdom. Because of her, I'm still making myself useful.
