    1. Social climbers and clout chasers. Perfect terms.
      Naalala ko ang collection ng paintings at LV. Lakas maka social climbers talaga. Tapos sa mga vlog ultimo mga storya ng patay kinakalkal for the views and clout

    2. mali ba ako? yung issue ni clavio with balabagan is personal and has nothing to do with his professional life. romantic relationships for me are personal and private... sabagay kung public school teacher ka, bawal din na hindi disente ang romantic relationship mo... I'm just asking and seeking other perspectives...

    3. Sya nga timamaan as of d open secret s kanila yan haha.

    4. 3:58PM As far as i know Arnold Clavio exclusively handled the coverage of Sarah's murder case. She was 17 when they had what you called relationship. He's a journalist, married, and had a relationship to a 17 year old vulnerable girl, empragnated and had a daugther with her, taunted her to keep silent, no support or anything at all. Again he's a journalist, with code & ethics to live in, and she was a sevenTEEN. The rest is yours to ponder...

    5. 12:13 salamat. now ko lang nabasa story ni Sarah Balabagan... sana okay na sya ngayon.

      Delete
    6. 358 Clavio's relationship with Balabagan lies within his personal and professional life.

      Just imagine ikaw yan si Clavio, may asawa ka na tapos nakipagrelasyon ka sa 17 y/o who claimed to be a victim of r*pe - so as her m*rder case happened - na ikaw pa mismo ang nagcover. Ginusto man ng babae o hindi, 17 lang sya yun, may mabigat na pinagdadaanan. And you? You became the predator ready to devour an helpless prey in disguise of support and protection. Sinamantala mo kahinaan nya. Then nung nalaman mong buntis tinakot mo na wag magsalita kasi masisira career mo as a journalist pati na pamilya mo.


      Sayo na mismo galing, decency, isa lang yun sa character na wala yan si Clavio.

  2. He cleared Manong Ted Failon, Kabayan Noli de Castro, Henry Omaga Diaz, Pia Hontiveros, Gus Abelgus. Mabuhay po kayo! Tapos ang dumagdag sa listahan ng nakikinabang or tumatanggap ay mga media bosses. Pangalanan na yan!

    2. E sino na yung news reporter na naging social climber o clout chaser? Hmm base sa mga posts nila, gets ko na.

      Hats off to Sir Nico Baua. Mabuhay ka.

    3. so what if he cleared those names?? ano naman ?? does it guarantee that those names are truly without a shadow of a doubt clean???
      weird eh... si Mr Baua na ba ang judge / authority ngayon?? para sa akin lahat sila suspect including Mr Baua... malay ba natin kung naghuhugas kamay lang siya? haha ako na may trust issues!

      Delete
    4. 4:08 THE THING IS ALAM NILA KUNG SINO ANG TUMATANGGAP KAYA KUNG CLINEAR NIYA IYONG MGA IYAN IBIG SABIHIN MALINIS TRABAHO NILA.

      Delete
    5. so Mr Baua and authority? sya nakakaalam kung sino ang malinis or hindi??? explain please

      Delete
    6. 4:08 sinagot mo rin sariling mong mga tanong. Lol. Mahirap yang may trust issues, d ka magtatagal sa trabaho, Lol. The world is full of evil and people can be imperfect, so what now?

      Delete
    7. 4:08 Hindi trust issues ang problema mo. CONTEXT. He cleared their names because when he mentioned in his previous post na kasamahan niya sa ABS yung "anchor who cost him the scoop for Luy", people assumed na baka si Ted or Kabayan ang tinutukoy niya. HE IS IN NO WAY TRYING TO BE THE AUTHORITY OR JUDGE. HINDI SIYA NAGHUHUGAS KAMAY. He was simply telling the public na wala sa dalawang yan ang tinutukoy niya SA PREVIOUS POST NIYA. Basahin mo yun para malinawan ka.

    2. Unless ma-sanction ang internet, they don't matter. They can say what they want, they are not journalists after all. It all depends sa nakikinig sa mga basura nila kung papanuorin at papakinggan ba sila.

  6. I used to love Magandang Gabi Bayan. We would even watch the news together as a family. But after he tarnished my dad’s reputation, I could never see him the same way again.

    So when I became an adult, even though he later won as the 12th Vice President, I never gave him my vote.

  7. That’s why I look for other source of information other than traditional media here in the Philippines but of course I do fact checking. I unfollowed most of them on facebook kasi super biased sila minsan sa reporting.

  8. Grabe! Mala Political KDrama ang kwento mo sir. Pero kidding aside, hats off ako sa mga reporter na katulad mo na hindi nagpapasilaw sa pera. There are so few people like you in the media. And as for the gov't, if they are really sincere na linisin ang corruption sa Pilipinas, gawin nila ng tama na wala silang poprotektahan. Na sana, simula na to ng pagbabago ng mahal nating bansa.

  9. Kudos to sir Nico Baua for being steadfast in his convictions to uphold what is morally upright in the practice of his profession despite the temptations & in spite of the eventual repercussions of going against the tide. It also takes a different kind of strength and courage to be this unapologetically honest & matter of fact. Many times it gets lonely doing the right thing & sometimes it feels futile fighting for a just cause. But that's what makes one a man of his own, a breed apart, a hero from the sea of media mediocrity

  16. Idol ko si sir ted Failon, Lalo na nung naging congressman sya sa Samar..Isang term lang sya at hindi na tumakbo ulit, dahil daw hindi nya masikmura ang corruption sa government .dun pa lang hanga na ako sa kanya. Kaya sa kanila ni DJ ChaCha ako nakikinig sa Umaga.

  17. bigla ko tuloy naalala ang vlog ni Julius Babao na biglang may pag singit ng political ads ni Erwin Tulfo.

  19. Sana mas rumami ang ganitong tribe, yun kaya tumindig dahil buo pa ang integredad.

    Alam niyo dyan talaga nagsisimula yun shady deals, corruption or ano mang appropriate thing to say. Kapag nakompromiso na. Kadalasan, ginagawa na kasi ng lahat. I am a cpa, galing audit din. My brother has a friend who worked in BIR rdo as admin staff. Kapag nagreresign ako, pinag-aapply nila ako sa BIR kasi sa experience ko at gaganda daw ang buhay ko. That friend, in 2 years of working naka-ford explorer na. Imagine what more yun higher ups. I just know i couldn’t. mabuti na wag ko masimulan. I cannot feed my kids from that kind of money

    Pero they will say that is a norm and gift daw yun dahil nakakatulong sila sa business. But di ko naman vinerbalize why, but sabi ko may iba akong gusto gawin

    Another batchmates story naman in BIR; sabi niya hindi naman daw siya nanghihingi. But pag nag-oopen sila drawer, may mga envelope na daw. Share daw nila yon

    Yun complexities kasi di mo sila masisi pano iyun na ang mukhang norm dahil lantaran sa ginagalawan nila. Iyun painful truth, mas mahirap pa yun tumindig, parang ikaw pa yun mali

    Napahaba lang yun kwento. Nalulungkot kasi ako sa bansa natin. Nakakagalit, nakakainis. Yun mga malilinis na tao, sila pa nahihirapan dahil bugok egg yun iba. Like me, 60k+ tax ko sa isang buwan, hirap na hirap ako magbudget ng normal. Tapos mapapakinggan ko, kinakakangkong lang nila. Nakakaloka. Walang natatakot kasi wala naman talaga consequence sa ganyan

  22. So yung media na ayaw daw sa mga corrupt nagpapacorrupt din sa mga corrupt. Frustrating ng pinas

    2. 2:30 no one is clean. Maliit man na bagay, may dumi pa rin lalo na dito sa Pinas. If that’s our mindset, black and white, madidisillusion ka lang

  24. Naku naku naku. May pinoprotektahan din tong Niko Baua na to. Those he cleared are his colleagues in his network. Ano alam nya sa nangyayari sa ibang network eh hindi naman sya dun nagwork?

    1. Malamang di nya alam di nga nya network so most probably no first hand experience. Naclear lang siguro nya yun sure nya. Sa GMA ex reporters ka magtanong

    2. May nauna kasi syang post madam...balikan mo,dali...para di ka nahuhuli sa balita.. Magi-gets mo don ang pinagmulan ng hinaing mo..kung di mo pa rin maintindihan,never mind na lang...

      Delete
    3. 8:06 naman! Natural at matik na protektahan niya yung mga kasamahan niya kasi in his previous post he directly mentioned na mismong kasamahan niya sa ABS ang dahilan na hindi niya nakuha yung scoop. Binasa mo ba yung previous post niya for context man lang?

      Delete
    4. Because he mentioned that in his post yesterday. Kahit ako napaisip kung sino sa mga anchors sa ABS CBN ang tinutukoy niya. It's good that he cleared those people. Parang hindi ka nag-iisip teh!

      Delete
    5. Sana man lang binasa mo muna yung kagabi lang na post about Niko Baua.

    6. 324 pwdng Yung sinasabi nya wala na sa abs malinaw po ba

      Delete
    7. 8:52 NOPE. Hindi malinaw at walang sense yang comment mo. Basahin at intindihin mo uli yung comment ni 3:24. In his previous post sinabi niya na kasamahan niya sa ABS yung anchor. Netizens will immediately think of those names that he mentioned. Kaya sa post na yan, klinaro lang niya na hindi si Ted, Kabayan, etc. yung tinutukoy niyang anchor.

      Delete
    8. 8:52 FYI, alam mo ba na nasa TV5 na si Ted? And yet, he was cleared by Niko. Ibig sabihin lang, kahit wala na sa abs yung tinutukoy niya, the fact na he mentioned na kasamahan niya dati sa abs, he has to clear their names because people will always recognize where those anchors originally came from. AYAN MALINAW NA PO BA?

    9. SORRY 8:52 PERO NALABUAN AKO SA REPLY MO. PAKI-EXPLAIN? THANKS.

  25. Kaya magtataka ka na kang iba ang nirereport sa TV tapos iba ang nararanasan ng mga taumbayan. Kasama na sa payroll e.

  26. Kudos to you, Niko Baua! Although it's a known fact na may under the payola sa MSM, but your bravery to go against these big names and executives of networks ay nakakabilib. Biased sila kasi bayaran. They promote someone and destroy the other. Kaya yung ibang media di ako naniniwalang prinsipyo umiiral sa kanila that's why they attack. It's more of attack and collect. Lol!

    2. Jusko girl ang shunga ng comment mo! KASAMAHAN NIYA NGA SA ABS PERO HINDI SI TED OR NOLI. Kaparehong shunga mo lang ang mag-iisip na taga-kabila yun kasi malinaw na binanggit na niya before na from same network as him at nakasalubong pa niya sa hallway sa ABS dati.

      Delete
    3. 6:10 NATURAL I-CLEAR NIYA YUNG KA-NETWORK NIYA KASI SIYA MISMO NAGSABI NA KA-NETWORK NIYA YUNG ANCHOR NA DAHILAN KUNG BAKIT AYAW PAINTERVIEW SA TAGA-ABS NI LUY. Ayan, capslock para intense at maintindihan mo. Jusko!
