She's Always Late

Image courtesy of www.commons.wikimedia.org

Glowing Woman GW and Her Fiance HF have been all over, excitedly proclaiming to one and all about their forthcoming wedding. Since their public announcement of the wedding, GW and HF's prenuptial photos have been proudly posted on social and print media regularly. Along with that were several interviews they granted on television and various print media talking about the preparations that are being made. Needless to say, everything points to how excited the couple are about their big day.

Earlier, GW and HF had been the subject of a blind item about an engaged couple who have been giving their Wedding Suppliers WS a difficult time. When the article came out, WS thought that everything would become easier from then on, but it was not so.

As the wedding gets near, nothing has changed as far as the demeanor of the couple GW and HF is concerned. They are still as unprofessional as they were months back, only this time, it is much worse - the couple have become habitual latecomers during meetings with WS. Definitely no way to earn good points.

Being reasonably late is fine, but to make (very busy) people like WS wait for them for hours is not only revolting but utterly insulting to one's person. It is so gross to subject anyone to such disrespect. Having found new celebrity status, GW and HF reportedly act like high and mighty, feeling like they deserve some entitlement and get away with everything.

Lately, there is always a Decision Maker DM present in their meetings. DM made it known to all that every detail must pass through him first for his approval before it is considered. As such, WS will have to consult with him every now and then. Would have been fine, but what's worse is that DM is also like GW and HF in character, or even worse, as he comes in 3-4 hours late.

As a result, working with GW, HF and DM seems like a punishment for WS that no one had anticipated – their chronic attitude had affected everyone badly. Having too many difficult people to please amid crazy schedules and character is definitely hell. If only WS could find a way out.

MTRCB Summons Arnold Clavio

The Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB) summoned GMA 7 news anchor Arnold Clavio for spouting "rude language" on his morning show Unang Hirit.

The board found Clavio's behavior offensive to children while interviewing Alfredo Villamor, detained businesswoman Janet Lim Napoles' legal counsel .

"MTRCB to hear matter of alleged rude language in 5 Nov Unang Hirit episode this Monday am," it said on its Twitter account on Friday, calling for a meeting with the show's executives.

Clavio has also earned jeers from netizens and from media watchdogs for the interview, by which he slams Villamor for a confusing exchange and ruining his day.

MTRCB, reminding the show of its parental guidance rating, asked its producers to "wear the parent's hat" in hearing the board's officials in the conference.

"Per MTRCB records Unang Hirit is a public affairs program and has a PG rating ... Young people are part of its audience," the ratings body added.

Media watchdog Center for Media Freedom and Responsibility (CMFR) also criticized Clavio for his conduct as a public affairs personality.

"An interview is in the first place meant to solicit information and opinion from the interviewee, not an occasion for the interviewer to insist on his own views, much less berate the interviewee, who, in this instance, was moved by the ethics of the legal profession not to comment on a case other lawyers are presumably involved in," CMFR wrote in a November 6 post on its website.

CMFR had previously berated Clavio for his "racist" remarks against the Azkals also made in Unang Hirit.

In a statement issued following the flak, Clavio admitted that he "went beyond (his) limitations" in speaking with Villamor over the phone.

"Sa sidhi kong malaman ang balita, inaamin ko po na lumampas ako sa aking limitasyon at humihingi ako ng unawa kung may nasabi man ako na wala sa lugar," the veteran journalist said.

Ready for a Bold Move?

TV Host TH is now reportedly trying to test the waters and rekindle ties with her Former Network FN presumably for a possible comeback. TH was a co-host of a controversial show from Another Network AN that just went off the air.

Years ago, TH and FN had a bad falling out when TH left FN to head for AN. TH allegedly left unfulfilled commitments and unsettled issues with her FN bosses and colleagues, thereby jeopardizing projects and relationships.

To TH, it was an emotional decision. To FN and colleagues, TH is bad news.

Unfortunately, the show that TH chose to transfer to in AN was not any better, with countless controversies that it had to struggle to fix every so often. The pampered TH however, became so complacent thinking there was nothing that her show producer can't fix, and that the show will stay long enough. Unfortunately, it did not. The miserable ratings, advertisers pulling out, rift with network producers did it in.

Now that it has folded up, 'the suddenly-orphaned' TH is allegedly feeling the pinch, the need to be relevant again. Reportedly, she does not feel comfortable under AN and what it can offer her.

Thus believing she can do it on her own given her bottomless confidence, TH is now supposedly sending feelers to FN, especially since a popular show she once co-hosted will air again soon. However, to her misfortune, there are talks that nobody in FN seems interested in her owing to her past faux pas and unprofessionalism. The other network also reportedly implied that it is not likely to take the risk on her.

TH was recently sighted inside FN premises to greet a friend. But cynics are viewing it differently. Allegedly, they are seeing a hand working its way to knock at the bosses' office. Bottomline: Is FN ready for her? Are bosses gullible to gamble?

Maybe her friend has the answer.
