Remember the time when Manila Bulletin, ABS-CBN and Yahoo News killed President Arroyo because of proofreading lapses?
Now it’s Inquirer’s time to goof:
While he was comfortable talking about politics, Aquino wants to keep his love life private.
He said he already asked his youngest sister and popular TV host Kris not discuss his love life in public.

Rep. Manuel Waykurat Zamora’s kalamansi seedlings spread all over the halls of Congress were the symbol of triumph of the pro Gloria during the SONA. It definitely hid the peach roses of the other side.

Semiology or apt use of symbols isn’t exactly a strong point of Filipinos, thus the symbolic message comes across as out of whack.
