Learning from ‘Mareng’ Winnie

MONSOD. Always fair and never condescending.

Fely Legaspi, televiewer: “Other TV hosts should learn from Mareng Winnie Monsod. Her hosting style may be ‘in your face,’ and her probing questions make her interviewees uncomfortable, but she’s always fair and never condescending!”

Other notes:

Larry Carandang, businessman: “I commend the move of the MTRCB to sanction ‘Unang Hirit’s’ Arnold Clavio. There are other broadcasters who cross the line and abuse their power to belittle ordinary citizens like us. Appearing on TV doesn’t make them better than we are.”

Tess Tinawin, housewife: “I never thought Alessandra de Rossi could also be an effective comedienne. I chanced upon her guesting on Ryzza Mae Dizon’s show, and she was a natural, comfortably trading banter with the diminutive host.”

Serge Generoso, office employee: “TV5 should reassess their current pool of comic talents. With the exception of Ogie Alcasid and Michael V, most of them aren’t funny! The mere sight of some of them makes me switch to other channels.”

Letty Dizon, televiewer: “Our president looks haggard and old. He is obviously affected by the country’s many problems. What is Kris Aquino doing about this? A makeover may just be what her Kuya Noy needs!”
