This is supposedly Genkuro's comment on my post about the Wowowee Scandal, but I made it as a special post because he has valid points and views. You may or you may not agree with his opinions, but I do.
Here's what he said:
"As far as this latest episode is concerned, I have to say that both instances has its merits and demerits.
Events:
1. A game show segment from a viewers point of view was rigged from the start as evidenced by the video footage.
2. A TV personality wrote his article on a National Broadsheet after a week of absence from the country ending his article with, "Teasing is not bad. Cheating is… on TV!" No names were mentioned in said article.
3. Game Show host reacts like a brat and "cried" on national television targeting TV Personality on a personal level and repeatedly named TV personality the program he works on and the network he appears in. This tirade went on in between "sobs" for 10 minutes or so. During his outburst, no explanation about the incident happened except him stressing several times that he is not a cheater.
4. TV Personality reacts without mentioning names and calls on the game show host to explain before he complains and stated "bato-bato sa langit tamaan wag magagalit." Jokingly ended his monologue asking the Senate to forget "Hello Garci" and instead focus on "Hello Papi!"
5. Immediately, game show host reacted that he doesn't need the senate since he has the support of the people.
6. The network of game show host explains that there was a technical glitch on that portion of the game show citing that since it was new, they still have to work out the quirks and apologizes to the viewing public. Still no explanation how the glitch came about and how come there are two numbers in one box or was it a wheel? This statement came out a week after the incident and after the news broke out on the newspapers, blogs, radio and word of mouth.
6. August 31, 2007, the senate reacts and will look into the controversy.
I am not taking sides on this issue but it's clear based on what transpired who is the more intelligible personality of the two. One maybe viewed as a taunter and the other a "pikon."
I agree however that an explanation with a substantiated apology is warranted to clear any misconception about the alleged rigging of the Game Show hosts' portion in his TV program. His personal attack on the TV personality is baseless and diversionary since he was not mentioned by name in any of the taunts made by the TV personality.
The contestant in that portion of the show was going home with an accumulated amount of P137 thousand since she chose the offer instead of going for the jackpot anyway. And in the spirit of fair play, they showed where the big money prize was. This is where the faux pas transpired. This is where an explanation is needed.
The bottom line, there was an incident which warrants an explanation. People reacted including the TV personality in his "pilyo" kind of way. The senate for lack of focus will delve into the issue. For what reason you may ask? I dare not say. What I can say is that it would be a waste of senate priorities and tax payers' money. We the people need more from the Senate than resolving an issue which the DTI and the MTRCB can solve. Come to think of it, what has the senate done for us lately?"
