Manila Standard Today/Malu Fernandez Saga Continues


Nick of Tingog.com has posted an article on renewed call to boycott Manila Standard. He stated:

Standard Today has chosen to hide behind their term “protocol” and issue a pardon to their most beloved columnist for all The Filipinos to see. This is a call to boycott, for the irresponsible behavior of Manila Standard Today, they have chosen to pass up the option of doing the right thing, and essentially show their true colors and the standards they are upholding.

We are launching this project, and all those who wish to participate, copy the badge code at the end of this post.

Blogging Responsibly


Some of the blogger who was interviewed in abs cbn news channel’s Media Focus hosted by CheChe Lazaro. The site even posted the comment below in that particular article:

To those who had been proactive, and have taken appropriate medium (sent email of concern to the editor of the paper, blogged about it/posted comments or any other measures considered appropriate) a big thank you to all. You are what this country needs.
