abs_cbn_got_it_right

Daz right mga kabarrio! Wag nang mag-tune in sa GMA News TV na mali mali ang news at ayaw ikorek! (Pwera yung video sa sidebar! Hahaha!) Itapon ang mga TV, bumili nang bago, tune in sa ABS-CBN! Now na! Hahaha! Maraming salamat sa Barrio Siete reporter na si Monique who alerted la Kapitana. At maraming thank you to ABS-CBN who got it right at truly naman na nag-effort si Leilani Chavez to write the correct report at eto sya:

“As a gesture of support for the ailing president, supporters from the online community have been placing yellow ribbons in their blog sites and social networking accounts since June 24, the day when Mrs. Aquino’s condition became unstable.”

“The call for posting yellow ribbons online started with Reyna Elena of Barrio Siete (http://barriosiete.com/touch-a-blogger-tie-a-yellow-ribbon-for-cory-aquino/) on July 23, heeding the call of Aquino supporters to tie a yellow ribbon as a way of expressing support for the country’s first female president.”

“As of posting, Reyna Elena has linked 57 blog sites with yellow ribbons. “Source:Tweets and Twibbons for Cory

At ang lecheng GMA News TV did not even respond to our email. They ignored our scholarly korek-your-news email. At ang blogger naman na na-mention, nilunok na lang ang honor na di naman kanya. Mag-sama silang dalwa nung reporter! Hmpt! Which in my original announcement sa reyna elena dot com, ay eto sya:

“If I was truly one engkantada with some magical powers, I would have used my magic wand and ask for a miracle. And if I could do one, I’d do it right now and make Cory Aquino feel better and recover. I wish it happens. Now na. But this is all that I can do, offer prayers and a yellow ribbon in my blog.” Original Source.

Can you imagine?! Ilang araw den akong umiinom nang suka dahil bitter na bitter ako?! So, may I say, Thank you to Leilani Chavez of abs-cbnNEWS.com for correcting the story. I wonder if she would join ang write for Barrio Siete too? Hahaha!

  • darbs says:

    @ajay, ibig mong sabihin, IBOYKOT ANG GMA-NEWS at mag ABS-CBN na!

    Boycot! Boycot! ang GMA-News!

    Sana hindi ako magmukhang agitator nito.

      24 Oras used the old formula of TVP.

      TVP initially followed a tabloid-type of newscasting because in the old times, habol talaga nila is viewership to catch attention. whether we like it or not, people then loves tsimis. But now, 24 Oras tries the old formula of the old TVP to get even with the ratings, afterall, GMA’s one and only priority is to kill ABS-CBN in the ratings game.

      Amen brother bloop. Amen.

      Dapat magkaroon din ng total reprogramming sa mga channels ngayon. Hindi yung puro soap opera na lang. Dapat may educational shows at documentaries sa prime time, para sa mga kabataan para may matutunan sila, hindi yung puro dramang ampaw lang.

      Kaya ang iba sa mga kabataan ngayon, mas kilala pa ang mga bida ng soap opera kesa sa mga bayaning nagbuwis ng buhay nila para lang maging malaya tayo o kaya mga mabubuting konsepto ukol sa siyensiya, language at mathematika.

      At saka tigilan na nila ang pagrevive ng mga soap operang spanish at koreano. Wala na talagang originality ang mga yan. O sadyang tamad magisip ng mga bagong konsepto na akma sa panlasang pinoy.

      Kaya di na ako nanunuod ng TV sa totoo lang. Kung manuod man ako e HBO, Star Movies, CNN, National Geo at Discovery lang ang channels ko.

  • darbs says:

    Amen to that bloop!

  • darbs says:

    @Bloop, kaya wag na wag mo akong sisihin kung hindi ako nag subscribe ng GMA-News minabuti ko pang mag subscribe ng Barrio Siete News.

    • pusa says:

      naku bluep ewan ano nanyayari, maski online inquirer eh palpak na, yung report nila na non working holiday ang iglesia ni cristo day nun jul 27 malaking booboo na yun, kaya naguluhan tuloy mga tao kung may pasok ba nun o wala

      hehehhe kaya kapamilya ako lol

  • darbs says:

    naalala ko pala ung survey sa internet about Internet User Behaviour and marketing. Ang isa sa mga katanungan saan daw ako kumukuha ng news. Nakalista doon ang CNN, BBC, NPR, others kasama na.

    Syempre, doon ako pumili sa others… tapos may sinabing specify. isinulat ko Barrio Siete News. hehehe.

  • Dinah says:

    ay, ako din kapuso pero kahiya-hiya talaga sila :-(

  • Mel says:

    bongga si manay leilani. i like her na. mas marami naman readers (i think) ang abs-cbnnews.com eh kaya mas panalo ito kesa dun sa naunang eklat news.

    anyway, let’s continue to pray for tita cory’s wellness.

  • chuva says:

    Vongga~!!!!!!! Kaya talagang solid Kapamilya na!!! Hahahaha!!

    Reyna Elena – - tanggalin na ang belo hahahaha!!

  • BURAOT says:

    credit to where it’s due.

  • Lani says:

    Dati din akong kapuso dahil gusto ko ang presentation nila sa news reporting, kahit pa brother in law ko ay nasa news dept. ng ABS nag work. Pero ng nagtagal, ewan ko ba, bigla ako nawalan gana sa manuod sa GMA, basta biglang naging kapamilya ako pagdating sa news. At dahil sa nangyari na eto, na maling blog ang binigyan nila ng credit, mas lalong na-justify kung bakit ayaw ko na sila panoorin. The more GMA news gave me the reason not to watch their newscast

  • [...] sa karpentero nang Barrio Siete Dot Com and that would be kotsengkuba! I would also like to thank ABS-CBN for correcting GMA News TV. Hahaha! An sayaaa!! Thank you, Barrio Siete Writers, readers and [...]

  • Snow says:

    Whoa, salamat naman na naitama na rin ang credit nito. ^_^

    Fly high Barrio Siete!

  • Silver says:

    Finally! Proper credit to whom it is due! Hahah.

    Thanks ABS CBN.

    Goodbye GMA. Che!

  • pehpot says:

    hindi naman ako kapamilyang tunay na tunay, nagkataon lang na may mga palabas dun na type na type ko, tulad ni Gerard Anderson (taas panty, sabay ounas laway)..

    at dahil sa ginawa nila, baka kahit sa wowowee panoorin ko na rin..

    ang masaklap lang may mga ibang taong di naiintindihan ang tie a yellow ribbon crusade na ito.. may nag comment sa entry ko sa blog ang kulit..waaaah!!

  • dencios says:

    ako ay subscriber ng GMA PINOY TV pero dahil sa ginawa nila parang naasar ako at hindi nag respond sa email ko sa kanila. parang ayoko na tuloy pumunta sa GMAnews.tibi

    buti p aang e bi es.

  • Brenda Mage says:

    Down ang reynaelena.com

  • Chi says:

    yey! ABS ang panalo. yey! and barrio ang panalo!

  • miss_tin says:

    Mabuhay ang ABS-CBN! :)

  • [...] Because the original news was wrong, we sent an email to GMA News TV, but they never responded. I was told by Silver, that there was a new Editor in chief at that time when the news of Barrio Siete came out. Be that as it may, while I was watching the live streaming of Cory’s funeral, Howie Severino saw me online and sent me an apology that I only noticed after several minutes because the chat messages were flying. And of course, I was happy to get that from Howie Severino himself. [...]
