Shortly after CGMA’s airport spectacle last year, another political drama has unfolded once again in Philippine television: Corona’s historical impeachment trial, another “first” in Philippine politics. Amidst the uncontrollable shrinkage of the economy, television has the major actors and actresses of the impeachment trial to entertain us, each of them vying for the public’s...
