During a press briefing earlier today, a reporter tried to corner Rep. Sandro Marcos with unverified rumors about General Santos City supposedly getting a "zero budget" and "zero MOOE" allocation.
Sandro wasn't having any of it and immediately shut it down as impossible hearsay, calling it mere *kwento-kwento*.
Instead of just letting the question slide, Sandro turned the tables and pressed the reporter on whether she had actually done her homework and verified the claim before bringing it up.
When she tried to deflect by saying she was just repeating what others said, he firmly cut through the noise and demanded a straight answer: “Did you verify it? Yes or no?"
Once she admitted she hadn't, Sandro gave a quick masterclass in media ethics and reminded her that, as a journalist, it's her responsibility to fact-check information before throwing it into an interview.
He wrapped it up by reiterating that a zero-budget scenario for the city was completely baseless, and asked rhetorically who would even be foolish enough to try something like that.
See, that’s how you supalpal a maritess with class. 😂
also di ko magets bakit naging safe space for sex ang public bathroom? I am not against it, you do you, pero never naman naging safe space for sex ang restrooms kasi kaya niyo nga ginagawa for the thrill? weird talaga ng mga bading.
I won’t shame people na may outdoor kink pero I don’t think na dapat i-glorify yung idea sa mga public spaces na matao talaga and making it like a “safe space” for queer people na ginagawa yun saying na nasa history na kasi sa panahon ngayon, mas accessible na nga mag motel eh
AD HOMINEM AT GASLIGHT LANG ANG ALAM MO, RODANTE MARCOLETA! Ayan lang ang kaya mong gawin kasi sign yan ng insecurities at kabobohan mo. 🤬
Kaya kahit mga kasama mo na sa majority, pinatahimik ka pa din! Sorry sa mga kapatid nating INC, eto ba ang binoto nyu? 🙄 Why???
