ABS-CBN should punish Vice, hire professional hosts
King Solomon wrote the Book of Proverbs in the Bible. Chapter 10 verse 31 says: “The mouth of the righteous brings forth wisdom, but a perverse tongue will be cut off.”
On this note, I am dipping a finger into the kerfuffle recently created by a Neanderthal in his gig at a large venue where he lampooned a respectable television journalist in carte blanche fashion. I am referring to someone with the moniker Vice Ganda. Suing him is not enough, if we go by what King Solomon said.
As to Charo Santos-Concio, president and CEO of ABS-CBN and his boss who was seen responding to his “joke” with a sardonic laugh, she must learn some lessons in good manners and right conduct, a subject drilled into the hearts and minds of public elementary school pupils way back in the past. I hope she has nothing to do with the script, and hope further that the mention of Jessica Soho’s name was accidental, not intentional.
