The photo above is the Philippine Star's banner photo for today. Shot by Jun Medoza, it had this caption: "Sen. Mar Roxas is welcomed by STAR employees while riding with children on a pedicab during a visit to The Philippine STAR office in Manila yesterday."Really now??
The accompanying story isn't even remotely related to the photo! (Read article here.)
That guy carrying a kid, a pedicab beside him, and all these blind people rejoicing around him. Looks familiar? Oh. Isn't this his political ad? Then what is it doing as a banner photo in one of the country's major broadsheets? (Oh by the way, because of this publicity stunt which you allowed to happen on your pages, I believe a lot of people's respect for you made an abysmal plunge.)
I do not believe that this is a legitimate story to merit such an amount of publicity. Oh wait, this is a form of publicity for him! So there's Wowowee, his P.I carnage at a Makati rally, his attempts at being makatao by voluntarily drenching himself under the rain, his supposed love with that broadcaster, that hideously fugly padyak ad, denggit.. the list just goes on and on and on.
But wait, has the campaign period started?
