Sass Explains how INQUIRER twist and slants NEWS

Dear INQUIRER.net,

I will explain to you bakit kayo natatawag na BASURA. Just look at your paper today. Your headline: "Jails full of addicts, rehab centers has few."

When I read the article, there's nothing there that says that those who are in jail got imprisoned because they are merely users. Were they imprisoned because they were JUST addicts?

Your resource person, Chief Supt. Allan Iral, said that "more than 80 percent (of the jail) population are there due to drugs."

Your writer Philip Tubeza is so fucking lazy to ask what's the major violation of the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002 committed by most of those inmates? Possession of paraphernalia? Trafficking? WHAT?! Is Tubeza so busy that he could not check the booking records of the inmates -- and perhaps do a random sampling??? Tubeza could have enriched his article with those information.
