What's happening with Inquirer?

Remember this? Well, Inquirer did it again. Look at how they used defense's witness on their frontpage.

I mean, the guys is a private citizen... a senior, if I may add. What they did is very unbecoming of a broadsheet. And you know what their reason is? Here: "Spoke with editors. They said intention wasn't to make fun. Those were only photos available.

Lame!

Edit: The guys at Inquirer apologized via Facebook yesterday. And had it been the only apology issued, it was just like paying sony coupons for destroying the dignity of another person. I am happy that they also made another apology in their frontpage today. See it here.

Inquirer is funnier (really)

http://www.inquirer.net/?page-one=january-7-2011

The headline looks/reads something like this:

Editor killed in GenSan:
Why should you go to the Philippines

They really had to layout it that way, huh? While I really don't like how the DOT slogan was crafted, at least I am just voicing out my opinion in here (and only just a few of you guys actually can read this, hehehe). But Inquirer has a reader-base of hundreds of thousands! They could have just took a picture of hospital carts and put in it the slogan of the DOT! At least it's a little obvious that it's a joke. But the above is just... a failure. Tsk tsk tsk.
