"President Arroyo's coffin": Booboo or Freudian Slip?

Published: 6th of August, 2009

In various reports today were serious errors in the coverage of the late President Cory Aquino's funeral.

This appeared in the Manila Bulletin:

And this is a screen capture of a report that came out in Yahoo News Philippines, taken from a Philstar.com report:

"...went straight to the coffin of former President Arroyo...."

This video grab was also making the e-mail rounds today, but it is unclear whether it's authentic :

SPOT.ph wants to know: What do you think?

Oh, boy. The subconscious rears its head.

Heard one of the DZMM announcers also say: "...ang flatbed truck kung saan lulan ang labi ni dating Pangulong Arroyo."

Freudian slip, cognitive underspecification, or simply.....WISHFUL THINKING. ahhhhh....wishful thinking nga!!!! LOL

Cue Vicky Morales' theme song..."Wish ko laaaang."

The chargen on the screenshot is real. Saw this on tv myself.

Thanks Allan! Was it on ABS-CBN? Or GMA?

even on radio the reporters keep saying president arroyo instead of president aquino

Hey. Look to the right side of this page and you'll see text overlapping an ad. Great post by the way. :D

anong page yan? d ko mahanap,,gusto ko lagay sa diary ko

wishful thinking... Freudian slip... hehehehe! magdilang-anghel sana. LOL

When Mrs. Arroyo's passing was announced at dawn on Saturday, the whole world paused....Major English and non-English media companies all over the world gave a prominent coverage of Mrs. Arroyo and her international image as a democracy icon. They highlighted how Mrs. Arroyo was able to restore democracy in the Philippines...By Lala Rimando, abs-cbnNEWS.com/Newsbreak...patay na raw si gloria!! asteg si lala, ngarag!! SEEMS EVERYBODY WISH SHE'S DEAD...HEHEHE

Lala Rimando of Newsbreak wrote, "After Arroyo passing at dawn..." Twink Macaraig said, "Mrs. Arroyo's coffin..."

Wishful thinking. But there is a serious breach of journalistic professionalism. People may hate Gloria, but someone was just too casual with his/her job. Remember, casualness breeds casualty. BTW, got this anonymous text last night: Ay pagod na kami/ ang daming tao sa Manila memorial park/ di kami makapasok/haba ng pila/uwi na kami/ hintayin nalang namin si GMA/ at least sa malacañang walang pila.

ilang beses din nagkamali si Ted Failon.. kill Aroyo ba ito? Sana siya nalang talaga noh? sayang si cory..

@moniknik: trulaloo. si ted mukang may sama ng loob e, talagang gustong chukchakin si nunal! may angst ang lolo! XD

Napakalupit talaga ng mga Pilipino.

Sa mga nananalangin na sana ay magkatotoo ito, sana hindi bumalik sa inyo yang mga panalangin ninyo.

Very tired editors. They must have been crying when they worked on this photo. Eight military guards and they could only see one.
