In a Facebook post published recently by a netizen identified as Ramon Einstein Acuña, the self-confessed Duterte supporter lambasted the Philippine media for purportedly putting Mayor Rodrigo Duterte in a bad light by putting a spin every word that comes out of the mouth of the survey leader and presidential candidate from the Southern Philippines.
It can be recalled that ABNS-CBN News posted an update on its twitter account that angered many Duterte supporters which they perceived as an act to put Duterte in a bad light to the voters. Check out the controversial post below of ABS-CBN News.

As a result, ABS-CBN News was forced to issue an apology statement to the netizens as soon as they realized their mistake.
OPEN LETTER TO THE PHILIPPINE MEDIA:
Dear Philippine Media,
Thank you for showing your true colors at the height of the election campaign period. Now the whole country knows how UNRELIABLE and BIASED you really are. I sincerely congratulate you for making all efforts.I only have one piece of advise for you. Now that Mayor Duterte is leading in surveys and will soon become the NEXT PRESIDENT OF THE PHILIPPINES, I suggest you become wise and change side.
Since you are already biased, how about changing gears in favor of the Mayor? Not bad right?Besides, the candidate/s you are trying to cover up are way behind the surveys. I’m quite certain after they lose this election, they will travel abroad and escape the inevitable persecution of the law because of their anomalies. AND YOU, THE MEDIA, will be left here in the country and will have to deal with a Duterte Presidency.
So be shrewd. Be proactive. Support Mayor Duterte while you still have time.You don’t have a choice. You are no longer as powerful and as influential as in the older days. We, the NETIZENS, are taking over!
Sincerely,
Ramon Einstein Acuña
Dutertard
What can you say about this post?
yes we netizens are powerful than bias media. bias media is mind conditioning but not in social media were netizens are exchanging ideas and information
Fuck off ABS CBN, netizens are clever than what you think
Correct.We, the netizens are taking over!
Yup I vividly remember duterte stating that “THIS IS OURS” and not the biased statement circulated by the media practitioners. Wag naman ho ganyan. Kung ano sinabi, un ang dapat nyo isulat or panindigan!
Tyaka di poh nya sinabing fire them . Ang sabi poh nya .#duterte kung ayaw nila di bahala na silang patayin ako at kayo ng bahalang #mgaPilipino ang umiyak para sa akin .. *) di poh ba .
Mayor Duterte soon our beloved President of the Philippines who had been tarnished by seasoned corrupt politicians, Mayor Duterte said it loud and clear, clear that he will be there bringing our Philippine Flag and stand up there addressing that where i am now is owned by us Filipinos, means he doesnt care if he would be fired and die there. Then his long time ambition will be realized of becoming a HERO
Very well said Mr. Acuña, very well said.
Threatening statements, full of arrogance and accusations with no justifications but just a small mistake on the media side.
If you can review all abs post about Mar wala ka makikita n against puro papuri or informative pero pag kay Du30 at Marcos grabe ung pangit ang agad agad nila ikukwento… Lalo n kay Marcos sila lang ang bukod tangi n me ads n no to Martial Law at na mention s vid ang name Ni BBM. Ano baseless o senseless lng
dahil po yan sa aquino family.. if you can see aquino holds abs and so pnoy..
Small mistake of the media? C’mon! Get real! They knew exactly what their doing..
Small mistake? Oh come on my friend, small mistakes if taken into public ,misinterpretentions will be made and huge damage will destroy you. . .
Well, it is not the first time. They always misquote Duterte. Anyone who understands and have watched his interview will be irate on this.
What made your mind the mistake is just small. No my friend even you think that was just small matter, it is a biggest mistake when it comes to media. Abs cbn should be in the highest form of fairness when it comes to presidential debate for it is the sensitive people expecting. Because of this scenario, people lost the trust to abs cbn especially to Karen davila. The impact is people will not vote for Mar roxas and will vote for duterte…
Obla, that wasn’t a small mistake by ABS-CBN. There’s a big difference between typing “wave the flag and fire at them” vs what Duterte has said, “plant a flag there and say that this is ours”. If this gets to the Chinese government, and took the statement made by this unreliably biased network seriously, you think they would be forgiving? huh. I don’t think so. Clearly, ABS-CBN is keen on putting Duterte on a bad light even at the expense of the nation in an attempt to put Roxas or Poe to a lesser evil stand. Get your facts straight media. We are all watching.
I think it was an honest mistake.
No!!! it’s deliberate attempt to discredit Duterte.
@julian macaraya: I really wish it was an honest mistake and not irresponsible journalism. It wasn’t just that they stop at “plant the flag.” It was that they ADDED the words “fire at them.” If you were the person making a statement and someone misquotes you on it, wouldn’t you call them out on that and say “hey now.. I didn’t say that”? They apologized, true. But in the first place, they should have proof-read before posting it, because they are posting it under their news twitter account and not some entertainment or fiction section. They aren’t just giving all honest journalists a bad name, they’re making themselves out to be deceivers/misquoting statements. And say they did and nobody called them out on that honest mistake, would they even bother correcting it or apologizing for it?
There is no such as Honest Mistake. Mistake is a mistake and it will never be honest.
What honest mistake you mean? This is not it is perennially done to people or individual bias media don’t like. It is very obvious
your thinking is totaly wrong!
A small mistake could ruin anybody even you. No matter how good you were and how good of what you’ve done, when you make a mistake even a tiny bit, it will destroy you specially if that little mistake make a big issue; because that is all they will remember so I say its justifiable.
maybe This
“OBLA” is a supporter of a BIASED Network !
u r full of ignorance !
wake up yow !
‘small mistake from the media?’
oh comm’n Obla..di, Obla…da
Are you a retard? That small mistake that you are referring to can cost a change of event in the election. You think the media would do it if its a small thing only..
Sorry Mr. Acuna. Changing gears is not advisable. We need fresh good uncorrupted national media when Mr. Duterte becomes President. Integrity in journalism.
Thank you Mr. Acuña for your open letter bringing out reporting anomalies done by Philippine Media on the latest presidential debate. They should be ashamed of their asinine behavior! I honestly can’t believe that the Philippine media has the audacity to behave like puppets controlled by puppeteers…shocking!!!
Yeah we agree with your statement and that is how media exagerate their news to cover the side of politicians who support them, sad to say that they are also Filipino who spoil the mind to everyone instead of upholding the reality and truth. What a bad moves indeed.

Wag na kasing Media lang. On all 2 other Presidential debates, one can sense the EFFORT to be fair either from TV5 or GMA7. CNN tried that too. On both occasions, their VP debate and their Prez debate, ABS-CBN TRIED to be UNFAIR and they succeeded to be unfair that’s why this letter should be SOLELY addressed to ABS-CBN.
That’s why abs cbn hosted the debate because they have intention, as mission to be accomplished by Karen davila, to give favor to Roxas to see to it that all the question for him(roxas) will be carried out as it’s been scripted. But Karen did not do well to be a best actress out of their show to be not biased but it was obvious that she was following the script. This is the total loss of professionalism in thephilippine media. This is the work of the criminals.
Good job kuya. Grabe ksi ang makakapal ng mga mukha nla to twist the anwer of the mayor. Lahat nlng ginagawa nilang mali. Buti nga sa kanila. God bless you po.
thank you for this letter mr. as we all know na may pino protektahan tlga ang abs na yan… pero khit anong paninira nila sa ating mayor DU30 hindi nila mababago ang desisyon natin na iboto si mayor… dahil sa loob ng ilang taon at ilang presidente narin ang dumaan hindi parin nawawala ang krimen at korapsyon. kaya na manan, ito na ang tamang panahon na bagohin ang mga walang kwentang pamamalakd ng gobyerno at suportahan natin ang adhikain ni mayor du30 na labanan ang kriminalidad at kurapsyon sa bansa… tayong mga FILIPINO ang magiging mata at tenga ni mayor duterte laban sa mga taong gustong sumira sa kanya…. let us all unite para sa ikabubuti ng ating bansa.. MAY GOD BLESS US !
O di ba kaming mga INC matagal na naming binoycot ang ABSiased-CBN na yan dahil may kinikilingan kahit sabi ni Ted Failon walang kinikilingan pero meron, meron, meron!!!
Napaka Bwiset ng media lalu na yang ABS
kapal ng mga muka manira !
Only time will tell them lies will fail.
This is the time of Social Media where everyone can access the real time story! So Please Media be good or we will take you down!!
Obvious sng pagka bias ni Karen. During the ‘fast track segment’ naka simangot nung si Binay & Duterte ang sumasagot PERO nung c Mar na (mining dirty coal, clean coal etc) she was all smiles at meron pang pa nod nod – kulang na Lang sabihin “Good job Mr Secretary”.
Any retards out there that will say its a small mitake, that small mistake can change the outcome on the polls…so STFU!! The media will not do it if it will not make an impact..

Let them be reminded that the uprising in middle east esp Egypt and Syria is because of social media. The gov’t tried to sppress the real event taking place in their country back then, however, with the help of netizens factual events were able to feed all over their country.
This is the beauty of social media, it became a powerful tool to disclose the real events happening in the country.
KAHIT ANONG PANINIRA NYO..KY MAYOR DUTERTE PA RIN KAMI..
Matagal na silang bias, ngayon nyo lng nahalata?
ABS CBN has no moral and delkadeza at all. Poor Journalism in favor of being just a PUPPET being led with a leased by the PNoy Abnormal corrupt administration that deals only in GRAFT and Corruptions mainly and for PERSONAL VENDETTAS…
Baka naman type ni Karen Davila na agawin si Mar kay Korina dear , I used to admire Karen for being gorgeouspretty aside for doing Her job BUT was turned into nitemare overnite whe She sshowed Her real colors. Soory but true LAdy.
