Manila boys attack Manny Pacquiao!

First they called Manny Pacquiao an impulsive gambler. Now they say he’s onion-skinned because he complained.

The Manila-based media has begun a ”barkada” campaign against Manny Pacquiao after he filed a P30 million libel suit against four Manila Bulletin journalists who allegedly described him as a compulsive gambler.

The National Union of Journalists of the Philippines (NUJP) defended the four journalists, its president Joe Torres telling ABS-CBN:

He shouldn’t be onion-skinned about these things

Charged with libel were Manila Bulletin sports write Nick Giongco, sports editor Ding Marcelo, editor-in-chief Cris  Icban Jr. and publisher Hermogenes Pobre.

Pacquiao in his complaint said the fourth paragraph of the article “Trouble in Paradise-Again?” published on July 25 in Manila Bulletin was libelous. In that article, Giongco wrote:

Pacquiao who spent millions in unsuccessful bid to win a congressional seat in his hometown in General Santos City is reported to be a compulsive gambler and is known to bet hundreds of thousand in casinos, cockfighting and billiards.

While Giongco gave Pacquiao the benefit of the doubt by using the word “reported”, he did not cite specific incidents of Pacquiao’s alleged compulsive gambling in casinos, cockfighting and billiards.

Pacquiao filed the libel suit before he left for the US to train for his October fight against Mexican nemesis Antonio Barrera.

bakit ikaw ginawa mo ba yan kay God? kahit sabihin mong oo lahat ng tao may pagkakamali… at bat mo ba pakialaman ang perang pinaghirapan nya… Ang mga taong nangangailangan ay kailangang humanap ng solusyon sa sarili nila at di na kailangang umasa pa sa iba… Wala ring ginawa si God na sistemang puntos… anong akala mo, business oriented na pala si God at may puntos na..

Wala naman pakialam ang media sa pribadong buhay ng tao e.. Lumalabag na sila sa Human Rights sa ginagawa nila… Dapat talagang kasuhan yang mga inggiterong yan… Para silang nagnanakaw ng pera kc sila ang kumikita sa mga paninira nila…
