Wowowee

The so-called "Hero & Martyr"

Another week, another rant.

Wowowee is back. And they haven't changed much, the format and program is still the same (except for the "long lines"). Willie is back leading the song "Sa Wowowee lahat ay sumasali, pagkat WALANG TALO SA WOWOWEE".
Walang talo sa Wowowee. It is the catchphrase of death.

When was the time this show killed 71 people and injured hundreds? Oh...a month ago, that seems so fresh.

And at that time, ABS-CBN is bragging about their "hero" and "savior" in the representation of Gabby Lopez, who did the "Ultimate Sacrifice" of taking all the blame, paying for all the damages, hospital bills and funeral fees. That feat is truly amazing indeed...really commendable.

F*CK YOU.

As soon as the death toll has risen, ABS-CBN is already gathering funds from people who wants to help the victims of the Ultra tragedy. The funds all went to an unappropriate organization, Batay Bata 163. So instead of focusing on helping children in the streets, they refocused their forces into gathering funds and helping out the victims.

Sure, I know Bantay Bata may not be the perfect organization to do that, but they are helping the victims using funds of poeple who contributed. Gabby's "sacrifice" seemed to be questionable, for I thought his company shouldered it.

To make matters worse, waivers are given to the victims. They have to sign the waivers first before they would help the victims. The waiver is an agreement between the victim and ABS-CBN, which the victim cannot sue the company anymore. So Gabby never really "sacrificed" and helping people with a gun pointed on their head. Wow. That is so noble.

Now, Wowowee is back. It just shows what kind of heartless individuals they really are.
