Philippine Daily Inquirer says:
To HELL with the TRUTH!!!
Philippine Daily Inquirer

Ladies and Sirs:
In connection with your “contest” on the answer to the question “What did Eggie tell Letty that made her laugh?” which appeared on page B4 of the November 19, 2006 issue of your paper with a photo of the two ladies with Letty laughing. Under the photo is a write up stating that “TIME Magazine recently honored Letty Jimenez-Magsanoc, Inquirer’s editor-in-chief and Eugenia “Eggie” Apostol, founding chairperson, as two of Asia ’s heroes over the last 60 years.. The magazine cited Apostol and Magsanoc for standing up against a dictatorship and launching the Inquirer with its unflinching brand of journalism”
My entry is as follows:
“Did RAMON TULFO tickle you RIGHT why he CONTINUES SPREADING LIES to the FILIPINOS through Inquirer despite being CAUGHT EXTORTING?”
The reason for my entry:
Sometime in September 2006, the National Bureau of Investigation sued the TULFO Brothers (Ramon, Raffy and Erwin) for MASSIVE ROBBERY and EXTORTION at the Bureau of Customs. The Brothers’ agent and runner at Customs, JIMMY SALGADO, confessed to the NBI and gave the names of Customs officials from whom he collected (in behalf of the TULFO Brothers) monthly over P600,000.00 protection money, meaning these Customs officials will be spared from being attacked in the columns and radio and TV programs of the TULFO Brothers for as long as they remit the monthly amounts.
Despite their long reputation as Extortionists and this much publicized MASSIVE EXTORTION as CONFIRMATION of their LONG-TERM REPUTATION AS EXTORTIONISTS, these Most Famous Extortionists TULFO Brothers in Philippine Media ARE STILL VERY ACTIVE IN PHILIPPINE TRI-MEDIA.
This behavior of Philippine Media validates the descriptions in my books “Liars, Intimidators and Extortionists in Philippine Media” written in 2004 and expanded in 2005 with a new title “The PRESIDENT and Her MEN KISS the ASS of RAMON TULFO” about the Leaders of Philippine Media being SCARED and AFRAID of the TULFO Brothers.
In fact, in the first few pages of my book (page 5) on the KISSING of RAMON TULFO’S ASS, the following are written:
:
“It was a puzzle at first, at least to the author, why media owners like the Prietos and Macasaets, who certainly know that newspapers should not be vehicles to propagate lies to malign people, continue to keep the Tulfos in their papers, even “promote” them as when Ramon Tulfo was the only Philippine Daily Inquirer columnist given space in the paper’s sister publication, Bandera. The puzzle reached a point as to make the author attach a separate note to one of his many letters to Inquirer Editor-in-Chief Letty Jimenez-Magsanoc, the note saying that Ramon Tulfo is not being fired from the Inquirer because the owners and management fear him, or that Ramon Tulfo shares his loot with some top Inquirer people, or that Ramon Tulfo is commercially profitable to Inquirer in terms of increased circulation.
The author for a long time was not convinced that the three reasons were strong enough for the Inquirer owners to allow Ramon Tulfo to continuously feed with lies the thousands and thousands of Philippine readers until a person high in the business organization of the Prietos sent the author a text message saying “the Prietos USE Tulfo.” Applying Ockham’s Razor, the author was enlightened. That “the Prietos USE Tulfo” is the most simple and easy to understand explanation, therefore true. Tulfo is used in the same way, as romanticized in fiction, a hardened “maximum security” criminal is temporarily released from prison, pampered, asked to kill someone, then kill that someone, then returned to prison. Clean job. Perfect alibi. How can someone incarcerated in maximum security perpetrate a crime?”
Because Ramon Tulfo is still allowed (despite his many proven lies and having been charged by the country’s highest investigative Bureau, the National Bureau of Investigation, with extortion) to ply his trade of lying, intimidating and extorting through the abuse of his media power as columnist of the Philippine Daily Inquirer, it is a wonder how Inquirer founding chairman Eugenia Duran Apostol and Editor-in-Chief Letty Jimenez-Magsanoc could be considered among Asia’s heroes.
Letty is laughing in the photo. But the one who is laughing most loudly is Ramon Tulfo because he was (and still is) able to fool, for many years, the two so-called Asia’s heroes (and all the officers of the Inquirer Organization). They are not heroes at all because in reality they are as low as Ramon Tulfo, allowing the Philippine Daily Inquirer to be used to LIE to the Filipino people for INTIMIDATION and EXTORTION and for LOVE of MONEY.
In short, by coddling Ramon Tulfo as a prized columnist, Philippine Daily Inquirer is saying:
to HELL with the TRUTH,
Continue FEEDING the FILIPINOS
with LIES!!!
