This is &*(-ing retarded and will make our country an even bigger laughing stock in the world than it already is. We have so many huge problems, there are kids on the street who can’t even eat once a day and this is what our monkeys in the legislature are wasting their time on? Of course this bill has self-serving idiot written all over it, it’s meant purely to benefit the retards who run our government who maybe don’t want news media to report on their latest thievery. Really, we should just put them all in a boat and sink it in the Pacific Ocean.

Regardless whether this bill becomes a law or not, people would still reply or respond to things they read, see, hear and listen to especially if it’s about their self.

I may be wrong, but it gives me the impression that the showbiz industry (esp gossip) would greatly benefit from this. More airtime for Kristy Fermin? LOL

I think the right to reply is just fair. There are two sides to every story.

But a possible problem with this is the scenario pointed out by Abe.

Hahaahaha, kawawa naman si Malu pag nangyari yun. Yung “indirectly of any crime or offense or are CRITICIZED by innuendo” I think everyone is entitled to their own criticism. And no need na siguro yun, OA naman na ata yun.

Teka, panu yung news sites ng mga leading newspapers sa pinas? Edi hindi sila obligated na i-publish yung mga comments kasi hindi pwedeng mag-comment sa site nila, diba?
