Q: What does the media, politics, and showbiz have in common?
A: Their members are always related to each other.
Q: Can you give an example?
A: Ninoy (Journalist), Kris, and P.noy
Q: Media and Politics?
A: Noli, Mar and Corina
Q: Showbiz and Politics?
A: Estradas, Revillas and Lapids
Q: What happens to mediamen if they are related to politicians?
A: Mediamen praise politicians more than exposing them to hard truths. News become propaganda and the media becomes PR agents of politicians. On top of that, it's free!
Q: Do you have proof on this?
A: Sure, I am keeping tabs on a particular newspaper which always provide commentary space to a certain politician in a province I know. I certainly do not believe such media outlet should be commended.
Q: So, collusion amongst the three or between two is bad?
A: It is not bad if you believe that those who cannot become members are not worthy of making decisions of their own.
Q: What needs to be done then?
`
A: I don't know for sure. But I know that I would not stop minding the triad's business for starters.
`
Q: How does the triad affect the individual and the community?
A: Whoever is in power, they must be members of the triad. This creates a class system similar to an aristoracy (like 19th century Philippines).
