I-Team
By: Iris P. Concepcion

Now, you ask, what the heck is this, as you query with the pretentious "I care for the world and I am free of sin because I am a successful person" kind of expression.

If this exists, my favorite Dogma director is essential to be quoted, as a foil to those who genuinely abhor me. Here: "F**k you, media, for not looking any deeper than the sound bite that’ll sell a falsehood."

I do not carry a war with this institution since I love the craft and its little people's thirst for more creativity.

Lately, I have heard the most ludicrous selling of stories that made me rotate my head six hundred times. Is that truly happening? What I know is, journalists MUST, and should carry their craft with conscience crawling in their keyboards and jumping like jumping jacks. Do not get me wrong, I admire plenty of people in this field and whenever I am with them, I make sure, small that my presence may have contributed to their importance, to express my unwritten appreciation.

It, however, broke me to pieces when I have been opened to WHAT they do with the craft in exchange for something. I bleed everytime I watch the clips. The enemy is not me. When did you last write a truly significant article that will show the world you are worthy of THAT trust? And they are going to mime and drug everyone to cover up for their unethical manners? I no longer call myself a journalist because it takes a nation to show you that this profession, above all else, is WHERE ethical processes MUST start.

Whenever you create a mob to stifle what you had been doing backdoor since writing may have lost its lustre already; that writing becomes a chore to further a lavish lifestyle, I directly point my finger at you in hurting tears: you have lost any credibility to accuse in paper or hack any legitimate transmission of information by reason of that same reason. Do not call yourself a journalist if you had aided in some way or the other with THAT stifling. Shameful.

Yes, my favorite hefty man, eat my offering since your quotation WAS precise.
