Stick to reportage, not opinion

/ 08:39 PM May 18, 2012

The Inquirer’s lead story (“Senators question Ombudsman on AMLC report”) in its May 16 issue contains the phrase “the feisty former trial judge took the measure of Ombudsman Conchita Carpio Morales.”

The words “took the measure” are more of opinion than reportage of a verbal joust between an overbearing senator and a fearless Ombudsman. The reporters have appointed themselves referees. They should stick to reporting.
