To be a journalist is to be a fearless and incisive "inquirer" that dares to "chronicle" history without fear or favor;

To be a journalist is to act like a "tribune" that essays the truthful "journal" of every story of our "times", big or small, front page or inside page, "BIG NEWS" or even the last story before the closing credits roll;

To be a journalist is to hold a "mirror" in front of you to regularly and faithfully check the convictions and principles of what a "free press" truly stands for;

To be a journalist is to sometimes embrace your own celebrity and be a "star" that sets and upholds the "standards" of what the Filipinos of " today " are fighting for;

Ang maging mamamahayag ay tulad ng isang "bulgar" na pahina na hindi puwedeng maging sisidlan ng anumang pagbaluktot sa katotohanan, bagkus siya pa ngang lagusan upang ito ay mai-"bandera" at mai-"balita" ang mga kuwentong dapat na marining at ma-"tiktikan."

Ang maging mamamahayag ay ang pagsisiguro ng pananatili at pagsulong ng isang "malaya" at walang kinikilingang pag-"PAPATROL" , sa bawat araw, "24-0ras" dahil ang bawat kuwento ay kailangang pulsuhan, may buhay, tila isang "NEWSBEAT" na kailangang ma-"CAPTURED" dahil walang take two sa isang breaking news, walang cut, walang re-take;

Ang maging mamamahayag ay maging "SAKSI" sa "SENTRO" ng bawat pahina ng kasaysayan upang ito ang mai-"BANDILA" sa sambayanan;

Ang maging mamamahayag ay DAPAT laging sa NGALAN NG KATOTOHANAN AT TUNAY NA PAGLILINGKOD.




5,4,3,2,1…ready na si ANNE!

October 5, 2007

After Arlette left us as floor director, (well not really for she remains number one in our hearts), finding a replacement was apparently a big deal. 

Ang daming na-assign from the other office pero isa ang naging isang permanenteng mukha. Nagtagal dahil siguro si May ang nag-brief sa kanya at hindi inunahan ng kung anong wala namang basehang pananakot like–hay naku—mahirap mag-FD diyan—-lalo na kapag si Chuba ang nagpo-produce.

Madali niyang naintindihan na hindi personal ang galit. Well it's not even galit. It's just a normal reaction of someone or anyone who grew up in the industry. Like ang hirap sigurong matuwa kung ang ipapabasa sa iyong script goes like this—sinertipikahang urget ni pangulong arroyo ang isang urgent bill. Si Anne nabasa sa prompter at ask—"sino nagsulat niyan?" (Siyempre edit on air, for after all, Onin and I, are not mere newsreaders, we are journalists who can produce newscast.)

Preno na…..hanggang diyan na lang ang kuwento baka kung saan pa mapunta. This is not about someone else, but about Anne.

Sa madaling salita—hindi nagkatotoo ang lahat ng mga banta sa kanya. Ito ay dahil sa madali namang makita na nakakaunawa siya sa produksiyon at maging sa takbo ng pagbabalita kaya nga napansin DIN niya ang sample line na iyon ( hay naku–baka ma-elaborate mo pa–tama na sabi). We instantly hit it off. Kaming tatlo at importante iyon sa daily operation on air.

Pero eto talaga ang kuwento—bago mag-on-air—halos kasabay naming maghanda si Anne and by that I mean—-pati sa pagpapaganda.

She will not sit in that chair alloted for the floor director if she is not well-groomed. As in–minsan nga—mas maganda pa yata ang pagkakaplantsa ng buhok niya kaysa sa akin. Ha-ha! At may make-up din—and can go on air anytime—kung itatakda ng pagkakataon.

Minsan nga kapag nagsasabi siyang "Ready…5,4, 3, 2,1…" feeling namin ni Onin sa kanya ang focus ng camera kasi naka-ready rin siya, proper posture pa ha!

Coming to the studio everyday, Mondays to Fridays, except on weekends, is extra special because of people like her who not only delivers what is expected of them but also go the extra mile by really communicating and understanding the meaning of every word and of every gesture.

Marunong tumanggap ng puna dahil nauunawaan niya. ( O ayan—parang may iba ka na namang gustong sabihin , preno na nga!)

Well…Anne is a welcome replacement for Arlette who is just in the other studio assigned to another show.

Mahal namin si Arlette.

Mahal na rin namin si Anne. (wakas)
