Harmless error. Major news outlets ran the story because it was the talk of the town (viral). Nothing wrong with that. No one got harmed. It was hilarious.

Puwedeng no injury, but there were shortcuts where there shouldn't have been. And it has gotten messy since then.

As they say, charged to experience. As long as no one was harmed, and lessons have been learned, it’s all good.

Naniniwala ako na isa sa mga "journalism" o "news" values na dapat taglayin ngayon - kahit sa isang panahong nagmamabilis at nagmamadali - ay prudence. Halaw man ito sa Cardinal Virtues, ngunit mababatid na sa kaibuturan nito ang isa sa mga prinsipyo ng pamamahayag: minimize harm. Taking a step back for one good step won't hurt us (well perhaps the KPI will suffer, lol). Karugtong ng usaping ito ay post na ito ng isang konsehala sa Quezon City: https://www.facebook.com/dorothydel/posts/pfbid02vnCDd9UwFstqqJJv6RJLyP2ENhRuwAfWm6S85SRjAWMm4ZiZDnPYkZRR1FuxGwPrl
