web totterings

it has been a while since i've clicked the buttons for some E! channel fix, add to that some news conduits i just loved to focus on with laudable reports and documentaries about the state of the world. but with deluge of the number of television channels available for all of us to spend our much-valued idle hours, to be stuck on just one is rather limiting our growth as observers of current and historical events.

however pinoy showbiz is moving on a reversed path, it's still embedded in the dark ages of the studio system. people are drawn to network rivalries much more now than ever before. i can still recall in my youth when no such thing as a hideous network war exist, fans weren't as mean and derogative. these followers with web connections have been molded into a malevolent cluster of denigrators in forums and comments sections. i've tackled this subject before. draped and hidden in anonymity, detractors freely post noxious remarks. there's no excuse for crass comments.

however fans are eternally deluded despite negative publicities on their favorite stars, just as i still watch mel gibson movies. at the end of the day, one's body of work says it all. our views will always differ, as we're divided by hemispheres in this planet. east is east and west is west.
