REPORTING SUE WE SIDE: Japanese media rarely cover specific cases on the premise that privacy is deemed more important than the public's right to know. May the Philippine media learn from the best ethical practices. Resist the trivial and sensational. Fight voyeurism.

ETHICS: PNA appears to consider Kontra Daya as a reliable source of information through the years. So why did PNA publish two articles in 2022 red-tagging not just Kontra Daya but also me? Years ago, I helped recommend PNA's editorial direction which it obviously did not follow.

SOURCING 101: Public figures sharing "fake news" are quick to blame the news media in general for the false information. They forget two points. First, not all news media are credible sources. Second, multi-sourcing is the key to knowing the truth. Relying on one source is wrong!

AI EVALUATION: I asked Grok 3 to critically analyze my writing style and this is the response (see screenshot). It's generally accurate except for the "Limitations" section.

UPD JOURN THESES JINX: (1) Hindi kayo magtatagal kung ilalagay mo sa Dedication ang jowa mo. (2) Hindi ka magkakatrabaho kung walang pasasalamat sa thesis adviser. (3) Mabilis kang magkakaanak kung wala kang thesis partner. (4) Mako-convict si SWOH kung sasama ka sa LR.
