Who's afraid of Ate Koring?

Korina Sanchez rails at Roxas’ detractor

This lady should not tell the news.

Being a wife-to-be of a politician, she cannot help but show her bias. More so, she lets her emotion affect her expressions. Whether she speaks as a commentator or a guest, she should be extra cautious in her remarks as she is perceived by the public more as a news personality than anything else.

As the "bearer of news," she should be impartial and impervious to the point of being stoic so as to lend credibility to her reports. This is the Walter Cronkite standard that news anchors should strive hard to practice. If she cannot try to do this, she should rather resign as TV Patrol/Bandila anchor in order to protect the news program's integrity.

She should also respect the views of her colleagues in the media. Conrado de Quiros certainly did not need to apologize for whatever he has written about Mar Roxas just because it has offended someone. Ate Koring knows this all too well as she herself has pehaps offended many individuals with her fiery brand of broadcast journalism.

There is truth to the saying that whatever you throw comes right back at you.

"Ang pikon ay laging talo." Hindi po ba Ate Koring.
