Reporters’ Anonymous
Special Edition October 2006
JOURNALISTS, SMUGGLERS
HAPPY TOGETHER
Journalists are killed here and there, charged left and right with libel. And reporters, especially the most corrupt ones, have openly deplored these crimes and harassment committed against their ranks.
But did they ever notice that all these things are happening simply because they never care at all with their profession. Sad to say, you can hardly compare reporters of today with the ones before. Dare if you can find one who has not accepted even the smallest thing offered to him or her either by government officials, influential people, gambling lords and even smugglers.
Reporters these days are corrupt. Wala kang tulak kabigin, lahat may baho! The only difference though some are a little discreet while most of them are makapal talaga ang mukha! This may be the reason why they are easily killed…kasi nga tatlo singko na lang ang halaga nila ngayon.
Gone are the days when journalists do not considered journalism as profession but mission. Kundi corrupt, extortionists! Tulad ng mga reporters sa Customs, Immigration, NAIA, at ibang beat na considered mga magnananakaw.
These reporters have fat bank accounts, cars, and can afford a luxurious lifestyle. And all of these are courtesies of payola they are receiving from customs, mula kay Morales, Cusi, Alipio. What is more, they even get huge amount of grease money from bigtime smugglers like Tina Yu aka Tina Vidal, Armand Ng, Richard Ng, Edwin Santos, Noel Mariano, Leonida Dalida aka Josie Permeho and Ahan Chong.
Big shots like Tina Yu, Armand Ng, Richard Ng, Edwin Santos, Noel Mariano, Leonida Dalida and Ahan Chong are the most influential smugglers these days because of protection they get not only from government officials but from reporters as well. Siyempre these protections are not libre.
Reporters under smugglers’ payroll:
Michael Lim Ubac, Inquirer. This guy stinks! Obviously sa surname pa lang (Ubac o Ebak?) mabaho na. Protektor ng mga KTV bar sa QC na may bold show. He is a friend of Perry Mariano, madalas makita si Ebak sa Thunderdome and Queen Castle. Kahit na mukhang bakla, malibog ito at mahilig sa mga batang GRO. Paboritong isulat ni Ebak sina Pichay at Nograles. He is receiving through ATM P25,000 weekly from Tina Yu alyas Tina Vidal.
Rainer Allan Ronda, Star. Ang agang naging walanghiya. Di lang master ngayon sa pagkaka-corrupt, doctorate pa! Kawawa ang syotang si Jops ng Manila Times, baboy na baboy. May P15,000 monthly payola kay Noel Mariano, kinukuha sa NPM Trading International Corporation, #779 7 th Avenue cor. 9th Avenue, Grace Park, Caloocan City.
Tina Panganiban-Perez, GMA 7. She is a disgrace to the broadcast industry. Simpleng pokpok. Sa 2nd floor sa Congress nagpayari si Tina sa isang influential congressman mapasama lang sa abroad. A hideous reporter who collects P30,000 monthly from Morales and Alipio. Just recently she got a necklace worth P45,000 from Josie Permeho. Kapal!
Gerry Baja, DZMM. He is a disgrace to the Iglesia ni Cristo! Mabuting matiwalag na sa INC dahil bukod sa mahilig sa mga babaeng malalaki ang boobs, nuknukan din ang pagka-corrupt nito. Madalas sa Queen Castle KTV Bar sa Quezon Avenue, QC. He gets P15,000 monthly from Armand Ng.
Paolo Romero, Star. Simpleng manyak si Paolo. One of his closest friends in Malacanang, during a drinking session, has shared to other reporters Paolo’s secret. Sa loob ng Pegasus, hindi nakatiis at nagpa- masterbate daw ito kahit sa harap ng mga reporters. He is not just a pervert, he is a corrupt pervert. He has P25,000 monthly from Richard Ng.
Arnold Clavio, DZBB. Sa panahong nagdadalamhati si Sarah Balabagan, sinamantala ni Igan. Inanakan si Sarah! Bukod sa tarantado, nuknukan ng corrupt ang taong ito. Pretending to be an honest journalist and yet he receives P20,000 monthly payola from Morales. Also, Arn-Arn visits Tina Yu every week, well, for hot money of course amounting to P20,000. Bakit meron pa bang ibang dahilan?
Jing Villamente, Standard Today. Hayuk sa laman. He frequents Imperial Sauna Bath and Cheap-in KTV bar. Dahil sa pagkahayuk sa GRO, last January nagkasakit si Jing ng Gonnorea. He is not only maniac, he’s corrupt and an extortionist. Best friend ang smuggler na si Ahan Chong at kinukuha ang P30,000 monthly payola sa Itahan Footwear, 14-B V. Mapa St., Caloocan City.
Maricel Cruz, Manila Times. She is the female version of Paolo Romero. In Maricel’s case, she wants men with ’sabit’. Trip kasi nito ay yung nakikipag-agawan sa mga misis na original. She receives P15,000 monthly from Noel Mariano.
Jojo Robles, Standard Today. Kinahihiya si Jojo ng kanyang asawa. Corrupt si Jojo at mahilig sa PR ng mga pulitiko. Ginagamit ni Jojo ang pangalan ng mga reporter sa kanyang PR. Nagugulat na lang ang mga reporter dahil lumalabas ang kanilang byline at tagline kahit di naman nila istorya. Libre na sa KTV Bar, pati GRO gusto libre. Kaibigang matalik si Tina Yu at tumatanggap ng P20,000 monthly. Putang ina mo Jojo, mahiya ka sa misis mo!
Julius and Tintin Verzola-Babao, ABS-CBN. These two have gained their title King and Queen of X-Deal. They collect their payolas left and right from smugglers. Sa kanilang kasal, ginawa nilang ninang at ninong sina Tina Yu, Richard at Armand Ng at Ahan Chong. Tumatanggap ng P35,000 monthly ang mag-asawang ito sa mga smugglers. Mahiya kayo kay Antonia!
Christine Herrera, Standard Today. Wala ng puwet, mabaho pa ang hininga. Recently, she received P50,000 from Chavit Singson to link Erap to another plunder issue. Ilang beses ng hiniwalayan ito ng kanyang asawa (anak ni Senator Ernesto Herrera) dahil masama ang ugali. Kaibigan ni Christine si Leonida Dalida.
Joel Reyes Zobel, DZBB. Feeling intellectual si Joel, pero sa totoo lang mababaw. If not for his writers he would not be able to come up with sensible commentaries on the air. Suki si Nograles sa interview at palihim na nagpupunta sa office ni Nograles para kolektahin ang P5,000 weekly. Besides, it can not be denied that he receives P15,000 monthly payola from Armand Ng.
Nixon Kua, Pilipino Star. Tina Yu’s best friend. Last Christmas, he got a Rolex watch from Tina. Pansinin ang kolum ni Nixon, hindi binabanatan si Tina pero bugbog sarado ang ibang smugglers. May P20,000 monthly payola si Nixon kay Tina.
Jerome Aning, Inquirer. Letty Jimenez-Magsanoc does not really know how Jerome performs in his beat. He is a shocker! Parang timawang nakapila sa opis ni Morales tuwing Biyernes para kunin ang kanyang P5,000 weekly. Josie Permeho gives him P10,000 monthly payola too.
Nelson Flores, Inquirer. Bar flunker at gustong batukan ni Joey Nolasco dahil sa gulo ng kopya. Kundi lang inaanak ni Letty matagal ng sibak si Nelson. Protector si Nelson ng mga smugglers at may P20,000 monthly kay Tina Yu. Nelson, mahiya ka naman, ikaw na lang ang bobo sa Inquirer!
Edu Punay, Star. The industry has lost one supposed good journalist. Sayang si Edu, maagang naging corrupt. He is no different from the others, he gets his monthly payola of P5,000 from Morales.
Loy Caliwan, DZAR. Ogag ang taong ito! A former driver of Joe Taruc who now brags that he is a genuine journalist. He is a classic example ng inutusan lang bumili ng suka, pagbalik reporter na. ‘Sundo’ rin ng alien ang raket nito at kumukolekta ng P10,000 monthly payola kay Leonida Dalida alyas Josie Permeho.
Bernard Taguinod, Abante. Ogag din ito! Feeling guwapo kahit pangit ang pagmumukha! He is assigned in Congress, but since this guy has a face of a tabla, he collects money from Customs every week. Pinipiga nito si Morales ng P5,000 kada linggo.
Carlito Carlos, Bulgar. Isa pang ogag! Kontento na ito sa P10,000 na tinatanggap kay Edwin Santos bawat buwan. Halos halikan nito ang puwet ni Richard Ng dahil sa P5,000 monthly na tinatanggap sa smuggler.
Willie Balasa, Taliba. Isa pang ogag! Dapat na sibakin na ito ni Gus Villanueva. Walang inasikaso ito kundi ang monthly P3,000 mula kay Cusi. Nasa payroll din ni Richard Ng.
Joel Zurbano, Standard Today. Isa pa ring ogag! He is a pain in the ass. Mamatay-matay ang mga editors sa pag-e-edit ng kanyang kopya. Pangit na ang kopya, corrupt pa! He is oftenly seen in Customs doing the rounds (read: orbit). Walang kagaling-galing kaya namamalimos sa mga smugglers. Luckily, nabola si Leonida Dalida na nagbibigay sa kanya ng P5,000 a month.
Jess Garcia, DZRH. Pinaka-ogag! Member ng Operation Tulong ng DZRH. Pero dahil sa masipag, at pati opisina ni Caloy Castro ay nililinis, ginawa itong reporter. Tabla rin ang mukha nito dahil lahat ng police station sa Manila ay inikutan na ni Jess. Pati sa Customs at Immigrations suyod din ni Jess. May tinatanggap kay Armand Ng na P5,000 weekly.
Bening Batuigas, Pilipino Star. Super ogag! I can’t really understand why Al Pedroche tolerates a super ogag like Bening. Besides, mukhang nabubukulan pa siya nito because Bening gets P10,000 weekly payola from Tina Yu. Al, you may want to check this out: Bening frequents Light Track Inc. located at 406 D Celery St., Taguig City. Tina Yu owns the place.
Louie Logarta, Tribune. Bet, he is very popular. He is known every inch for being, well, corrupt! Kinakalyo na ang kamay nito sa kakahingi ng pera sa mga smugglers. Pero totoo talaga ang karma, ngayon may sakit si Louie sa atay. He is receiving a monthly payola of P15,000 from Richard Ng. Pati si Morales at Alipio hindi pinaligtas, may weekly din na 20,000.
Joel Egco, Standard Today. Mayabang ang batang ito at nakakahiya dahil feeling magaling na reporter. Ogag din ito! Pinagtatawanan sa Congress dahil scoop lagi sa istorya. Bulok na ang motorsiklong gamit and we heard, Joel is begging Noel Mariano to buy him a new motorcycle. May monthly payola kay Noel na P10,000.
Recto Mercene, Business Mirror. This man is old enough to confess his sins. But he doesn’t care, instead, he busies himself collecting hot money. Kung kailan tumanda, lalung naging corrupt. In fact, kinahihiya siya ng mga naging kasamang reporter sa Malacanang. Daang libong piso ang kinikita sa kanyang negosyong ’sundo’ sa mga aliens. May P20,000 monthly payola kay Edwin Santos.
Marvin Sy, Star. He is not just corrupt, he is a woman beater too. Lahat na naging syota nito sa industriya ay umaaray dahil sa pambubugbog niya. His girlfriends’ friends said he needs professional help. He receives P5,000 weekly from Richard Ng.
Jun Lincoran, DZMM. If you want to find out if Jun just received hot money, then you better look at his hands. Hindi lang simpleng pasma ang kamay niya. When you find his hands are shaking, no doubt, may bumagsak na grease money sa kamay niya. Like Taguinod, he is assigned in Senate pero madalas sa Customs para kumolekta ng P5,000 monthly kay Morales.
Jun Yap, Tribune. Before, he’s just Louie Logarta’s legman. Taga-kolekta. Pero ngayon kumukolekta para sa kanyang sarili. He gets P10,000 monthly from Tina Yu. He goes to Verdes Commerciales Inc. 1000 A. Mabini St., Ermita, Manila owned by Tina Yu every 15 th of the month.
Conrado Ching, Tribune. He is no different from Louie Logarta. Extortionist and corrupt. Ewan kung bakit tinanggap ni Ninez Cacho-Olivares, alam naman kahihiyan ito sa Tribune. He gets P20,000 monthly from Edwin Santos. ‘Sundo’ ng alien rin ang raket nito.
Venus Tandoc, Abante. No doubt that the money that she feeds to her children are from smugglers. Kaibigang matalik si Tina Yu at madalas makita ang dalawa na kumakain sa Rembrandt Hotel. P15,000 monthly ang tinatanggap ni Venus kay Tina.
William Depasupil, Manila Times. Every Friday nasa office ni Alipio at Morales. It doesn’t matter if other reporters describe him ‘double-edged’ dahil sa sobrang talim lahat ng smuggler hagip. What really matters to this man is he gets P50,000 monthly from Tina Yu, Armand and Richard Ng, Josie Permeho and Noel Mariano. Manila Times editors would really want to fire him but he bribes them with gifts.
Jun Ramirez, Manila Bulletin. Sawang-sawa na si Noel Mariano sa kakabigay rito ng P5,000 weekly dahil bukod sa pera, lagi pa siyang hinihiritan ng GRO. Hayok ang reporter na ito sa mga batang GRO. Aside from Noel Mariano, he also collects his P3,000 weekly payola from Tina Yu’s Light Track Inc. 406 D. Celery Rd., Taguig City.
Jun Tadios, Bulgar. Pahabol na Ogag! Mahilig uminom ng libre sa mga beerhouse sa Pasay. Pero wala namang itong kalibre kaya hanggang P3,000 monthly lang ito kay Edwin Santos. Naghahanap pa ng mga smuggler para maging kaibigan niya.
Rey Pacheco, DZXL. He is corrupt, period! He visits Verdes Commerciales Inc. 1000-A Mabini St., Ermita, Manila to get his P10,000 monthly from Tina Yu.
Rod Izon, DZMM. Sinusunog ang kaluluwa sa impiyerno kahit buhay pa. Reporters covering WPD hate this man. Paano naman lahat nabukulan na niya. Kinukuha ang kanyang suhol tuwing katapusan kay Noel Mariano sa NPM Trading International #779 7 th St., cor. 9th Avenue, Grace Park, Caloocan City.
Paul Gutierrez, People’s Journal. Kumpare ni Richard Ng si Paul. Talagang kinilala ni Paul ang lahat ng smuggler para makikilan. Hot money comes to his hand regularly, amounting to P30,000 courtesy of Ahan Chong. He collects the money at Itahan Footwear at 14-B V. Mapa St., Caloocan City.
Melvin Casas, People’s Tonight. Tumaba dahil sa pera ng smuggler. He’s a disgrace to the Journal and Gus Villanueva should fire this corrupt reporter. Melvin gets his P15,000 monthly from Edwin Santos.
Grace Vergel, DZXL. Mababaw ang kaligayahan ng babaeng ito. Kuntento na siya sa P3,000 monthly kay Morales. Kaibigan nito ang smuggler na si Tina Yu. Ayaw umamin si Grace na may tinatanggap siyang weekly payola kay Tina.
Carlo Mateo, DZBB. He covers WPD, Manila City hall and NBI. The thing is, he is pushing himself to the Customs beat para mabiyayaan ng grasya. Ngayon, nakapayola na siya sa magkapatid na Richard at Armand Ng at kuntento na sa P5,000 isang linggo. Pwedeng pahabol na ogag ito.
Ted Failon, DZMM. Now this man hates to be called congressman dahil mga corrupt nga raw. But look who’s talking? He dirtied his hand with hot money no less than P50,000 a month from smugglers like Tina Yu and Ahan Chong. Maria Ressa should investigate this moron.
Alvin Capino, DWIZ. He collects P15,000 from Morales every week. Aside from this, he gets from Josie Permeho P15,000 a month. Nuknukan ng kapal ng mukha ng nagmamagaling na mamang ito. Pati sa Immigration orbit pa rin.
Marlon Purificacion, People’s Journal. Gahaman sa shabu si Marlon. Galing kina Armand Ng at Noel Mariano ang pinangbibisyo nito. He actually receives P20,000 a month from these smugglers. Gus, pa-drug test mo si Marlon-adik!
.
Rene Sta. Cruz and Neil Ocampo. Birds of the same feathers flocked together. Parehong makapal ang mukha ng dalawang ito. Halos araw-araw, ini-interview nila ang abugado ni FG na si Atty. Jesus Santos. They are under Malacanang’s payroll. Aside from this, they also have monthly payola from Noel Mariano and Tina Yu amounting to P20,000 each.
Orly Trinidad, DZBB. He looks up to Rene and Neil as if they were saints, kaya ngayon corrupt na rin ito. Wala rin siyang sawa sa pag-interview kay Atty. Jesus Santos. Tumatanggap si Orly ng P10,000 monthly kina Leonida Dalida at Noel Mariano. Orly, wag mong gayahin ang dalawang kupal!
Raul Esperas, DWIZ. Pahabol na ogag. Sa diyaryong Headline pa lang, corrupt na si Raul. May P10,000 monthly kay Edwin Santos at Richard Ng. Madalas sa isang sikat na Sauna Bath sa Pasay si Raul, nagpapa blow job!
Jerry Yap, Hataw. This man is a true-blue smuggler pretending to be a journalist. This one is a total disgrace to the journalism industry. There is no doubt that Jerry uses Hataw to protect his smuggling activities. He is a business associate of Richard Ng. Both of them are involved in cellphone smuggling. Matitimbog din ang smuggler na ito!
Joey Venancio, Police Files. Best friend ni Wacky Salud, ‘Masiao King’ sa Mindanao at Visayas. Like Jerry Yap, Joey uses Police Files to promote masiao. He earns P50,000 monthly from masiao operations aside from the regular payola he gets from Tina Yu. Josie Permeho gave his wife a diamond earings worth P95,000. Makapal din ang asawa ni Joey!
Jonathan De la Cruz, Malaya. Nagmamagaling na bobo. Very much known for his illegal activities. Kung may lifestyle check lang among columnists, this fellow will surely fail. Lahat ng magagarang damit nito ay galing kay Leonida Dalida who also gives him a monthly payola of P20,000.
Julius Fortuna, Manila Times. Nagmamalinis na mabaho. Julius hosts a regular press conference in Sulo Hotel, and guess what? It is Tina Yu who funds it but the money goes directly to Julius pocket. The trick is, politicians invited to appear in the weekly forum are obliged to pay a hefty amount para pang-ayos daw sa mga reporters na magko-cover. Bukod sa pondong ibinibigay ni Tina Yu, Julius still gets his monthly payola of P20,000 from her.
Romy Evangelista, Standard Today. Driver-saleman turned reporter. What a humble beginning! Pero ngayon police character na kaya sinibak ng editor sa Congress beat dahil nahuling nanghihingi ng baon sa mga congressmen nang magpunta sa Europe. He receives P10,000 monthly from Ahan Chong.
Pabs Hernandez, Bulgar. Kadiri itong mamang ito, (dumadahak, pinangdidirihan ng mga lady reporter). Nagsisisi si Arlene dela Cruz kung bakit nagpayari kay Pabs. Extortionist si Pabs, at nuknukan din ang pagka-corrupt. Hindi nakakapagtaka kung bakit ilang beses na itong muntik mapatay. He gets P50,000 from Noel Mariano and Tina Yu.
Ruther Batuigas, Bulgar. Batikang corrupt itong si Ruther. May P35,000 monthly ito kay Richard at Armand Ng. He is a close friend of Noel Mariano. Sir, pahinga na kayo!
Butch Quejada, Pilipino Star. Mestiso pero mahilig sa itim na suso. Manyak si Butch! Blow job ang trip kapag may ka-table na GRO. He receives P5,000 weekly payola from Leonida Dalida.
Mario Batuigas, Tiktik. Tirador ng mga negosyanteng Intsik. Corrupt na, extortionist pa! No place sa media dahil sa pagmumukha pa lang hindi na pahuhuli ng buhay. Pati sariling anak ginagawan ng kahalayan. Armand Ng (smuggler) gives him a monthly payola of P10,000.
Mike Baluyot, People’s Journal. Every week, Mike makes sure he would drop by at Verdes Commerciales Inc. located at 1000 A. Mabini St., Ermita, Manila to get his payola from Tina Yu amounting P3,000.
Ros "Kaka" Olgado, Net 25. Simpleng corrupt, at garapal kung gamitin ang media ng Iglesia ni Cristo. May sakit na cancer si Kaka, at madalas magpa-’chemo’ . Kaibigan matalik si Ricahrd Ng, at may P10,000 monthly payola.
Mike Abe, DZME. Original na batang Customs at kilala lahat ng smugglers. He is receiving a P20,000 monthly payola from Tina Yu. He also gets P10,000 monthly from Ahan Chong in Itahan Footwear at 14-B V. Mapa St., Caloocan City.
Noel Perfecto, NBN 4. One word to describe this guy: Corrupt! Receiving P25,000 monthly from Noel Mariano, Richard Ng and Tina Yu. Kupal, nanilaw na katawan mo sa alahas kahit negro ka pa!
Jimmy Cheng, United Daily News. ‘Salubong’ ng alien sa airport ang raket ni Jimmy. Disgrace sa mga Tisnoy. Nasa payola ni Josie Permeho, P10,000 weekly.
