Sotto and Puno-RESIGN! Never!

Posted on September 7, 2012September 7, 2012 By Ms. Mike Portes 10 Comments on Sotto and Puno-RESIGN! Never!

The shameless arrogance of Tito Sotto and the Quirino faux pas of Rico E.Puno are just the things that make you go face palm and shudder at the thought that THEY are official reprensentatives of our nation. I have given up on Tito Sen. I gave him the benefit to be a better man and…

Why are mental health concerns constantly dogging the administration of President Noynoy Aquino?

Why are mental health concerns constantly dogging the administration of President Noynoy Aquino?

Why is it that issues of mental health and emotional maturity seem to stick to the Yellow camp of President Benigno Simeon “BS” Aquino III like a bad rash? During the the 2009-2010 presidential campaign, observations emerged around what increasingly seemed to be a cult-like following emerging around the Aquino camp composed of what many…

The myth of doing things ‘for the people’

Posted on September 5, 2012 By Kate Natividad 19 Comments on The myth of doing things ‘for the people’
The myth of doing things ‘for the people’

Is there really such a thing as doing things purely for the common good? I keep seeing and hearing it everywhere — people evaluating politicians based on their intention to be makatao or “for the people” when they win the right to serve in government. I also see a lot of calls to contribute to…

Senator Joker Arroyo warns God’s Chief Justice Lourdes Sereno on claims to infallibility

Just less than a month in office, newly-appointed Philippine Supreme Court Chief Justice Lourdes Sereno is already coming across as the beleaguered hapless “servant” that she pitches herself as. She should’ve been careful of what she wished for when she invoked the imagery of the martyr-like divinely-appointed “humble servant” that she used to pitch herself…

Now that Mar Roxas is DILG Secretary, Korina Sanchez is no longer credible as a ‘journalist’

Posted on September 2, 2012October 15, 2013 By benign0 46 Comments on Now that Mar Roxas is DILG Secretary, Korina Sanchez is no longer credible as a ‘journalist’
Now that Mar Roxas is DILG Secretary, Korina Sanchez is no longer credible as a ‘journalist’

Poor Korina Sanchez-Roxas. Her career as a “journalist” is practically in limbo for now. That’s because her husband Mar Roxas has now been appointed to the post of Secretary of the Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG). That puts her alongside folks like Manuel L Quezon III who was once a trusted blogger but…

How the media management regime of the Aquino Government mirrors that of Nazi Germany

Posted on September 2, 2012January 16, 2019 By benign0 91 Comments on How the media management regime of the Aquino Government mirrors that of Nazi Germany
How the media management regime of the Aquino Government mirrors that of Nazi Germany

Go figure. Certain media outlets like Rappler.com, and its cadre of “online journalists”, for example, seem to have first crack at “reporting” stories about administration “achievements”. The biggest media conglomerate in the country, biggest broadsheet and online news site, and the most popular mass entertainers all seem to exhibit a palpable bias towards the Yellow…

Sotto’s plagiarism begets a blogging bill

Picture yourself as an average kid catching your younger sibling being a douche. You see him doing the typical mischief kids do in their worse days; throwing massive tantrums, stealing toys from other children, hitting people for no apparent reason, stuff like that. Being the good kid that you are, you beckon to your brother…

Tito Sotto’s plagiarism: Is it really that important in the scheme of things?

Posted on August 29, 2012August 29, 2012 By benign0 104 Comments on Tito Sotto’s plagiarism: Is it really that important in the scheme of things?
Tito Sotto’s plagiarism: Is it really that important in the scheme of things?

With regard to this whole circus over plagiarism allegedly perpetrated by Philippine Senator Vicente “Tito” Sotto III, I have to ask the obvious question: Was anyone harmed? I frame that question with the level of unrelenting ferocity I observe with which people have been attacking Senator Sotto. Even as this issue is “debated” ad nauseum,…
