Statement of ABS-CBN on OSG’S quo warranto petition:
The Office of the Solicitor General’s filing of a quo warranto case against ABS-CBN on alleged violations of its franchise appears to be an effort to shut down ABS-CBN to the serious prejudice of millions of Filipinos who rely on the network for news, entertainment and public service.
These allegations cited by the Office of the Solicitor General in his press statement are without merit. ABS-CBN complies with all pertinent laws governing its franchise and has secured all necessary government and regulatory approvals for its business operations.

Si Snow ang aming pinakamamahal na alagang Pomeranian. Ipinaampon siya sa amin ng dati niyang may-ari ilang buwan bago ang kasal namin ni Myla. Napakalambing pero napakakulit ni Snow. Mahilig din siyang kumain. Paggising namin sa umaga, masayang-masaya siyang naglalambing. Ayaw niyang maiwan sa bahay, at para siyang mababaliw sa tuwa tuwing kami ay darating.

Napag-uusapan ang mga burger dahil sa pagpe-phase out ng Jollibee sa kanilang Champ burger. Dahil diyan, naalala ko na naman ang masarap na McRice Burger ng McDonald’s.
Continue reading
Kinumpirma kahapon ng Jollibee ang usap-usapan sa Twitter na mawawala na ang burger nilang Champ. Walang ibinigay na dahilan ang Jollibee. Pero sinabi naman nito na laging may posibilidad na ang mga luma nilang produkto, gaya ng Champ, ay magbalik sa mga darating na panahon.
Sa pelikulang “Vince & Kath & James” ko unang napanood ang tambalan nina Joshua Garcia at Julia Barretto — o ang JoshLia — ngunit pinakapaborito ko sila sa nakatutuwa pero madrama at di-malilimutang “Love You to the Stars and Back.”
Dahil sa paghihiwalay nila ng landas noong isang taon bilang magkasintahan at magka-love team, akala ko’y huling pagtatambal na nina Joshua at Julia sa pinilakang tabing ang “I Love You, Hater,” kung saan nakasama nila ang Queen of All Media na si Kris Aquino.

Below is a December 30, 2019 press statement from the National Union of Journalists of the Philippines:
President Rodrigo Duterte’s latest tirade against ABS-CBN bears all the signs of a shakedown and raises questions over his real intentions for seeking to block the renewal of the broadcast network’s franchise.

Ginagamit ni Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte ang kaniyang kapangyarihan upang gantihan at wasakin ang mga pumupuna at kumakalaban sa kaniyang pamamahala.
Magtatatlong taon nang nakakulong si Senador Leila de Lima, na kasapi ng oposisyong Partido Liberal. Noong 2017, inaresto siya sa isa sa tatlong drug cases na isinampa ng Department of Justice laban sa kaniya. Isinasangkot ng gobyernong Duterte si De Lima sa pagbebenta at pangangalakal ng ilegal na droga sa National Bilibid Prison.

“Save the user. Jail the user.” Ilang dekada ring ito ang alam kong slogan ng kampanya ng gobyerno laban sa droga. Sa pag-upo ni Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte, tila “Obosen!” at “Kill, kill, kill!” ang pumalit sa slogan na ito.
Sa ilalim ng rehimeng Duterte, naging sunod-sunod ang pagpatay sa mga pinaghihinalaang adik at pusher. Kadalasang dahilan ng mga pulis, “nanlaban” daw ang mga suspek. Suportado naman sila ng pangulo. Pero hindi lang mga pinaghihinalaang sangkot sa droga ang naging biktima ng patayan. Pati mga inosente, nadamay sa madugong giyera kontra droga ni Duterte.
