How low can you go? Maria Ressa resorts to headline shaming, disses ABS-CBN article

In a tweet posted Saturday (August 3), Ressa dissed her former employer, ABS-CBN, for posting an article online with a subhead “that is Rappler’s headline.”
“Here’s an example of glass half-empty, half-full. The ABS story ran a sub-head that is Rappler’s headline. What headline would you have used?” she said, posting links Rappler and ABS-CBN’s articles.
The title of ABS-CBN’s article read: “SWS: Most Pinoys find freedom of speech ‘very strong’ under Duterte.” The subhead was as follows: “But half of Pinoys believe printing, broadcasting anything critical vs gov’t ‘dangerous’”
Meanwhile, the title of Rappler’s article read: “Majority of Filipinos think it’s dangerous to publish anything critical of Duterte admin”

It’s unclear why Ressa is making a fuss out of the subhead of ABS-CBN’s article when its angle was completely different from Rappler’s.
She must be in the mood to proclaim that Rappler is superior over other media entities.

As ponente in poll case vs Robredo THE Supreme Court (SC), sitting as the Presidential Electoral Tribunal (PET), is considering replacing Associate Justice Alfredo Benjamin Caguioa as the ponente in the election protest case filed by former senator Ferdinand Marcos Jr. against Vice President Maria Leonor Robredo, sources said. Well-placed sources told The Manila Times that after an overwhelming majority of magistrates rejected Caguioa’s draft ruling recommending the dismissal of the poll protest, a new ponente will likely be appointed. “The new ponente shall come from the majority after Ben (Caguioa) became the dissenter to the case,” the source said.
