Iloilo's media wars

It is a big affront to the sensibilities of Ilonggos to hear radio commentators attacking each other over the airlanes. This is how I feel about the word war between Bombo radio and RMN during the last few weeks. They forget that as broadcasters, they owe their listeners a great sense of decency and respect. Okay, if the surveys show that RMN is a poor third, then so be it. The ranking will not change if Rhod Tecson attacks Florete. Bombo, for its part, should not stoop down to the muck raking of RMN. If it is number one, it should behave like one. What is the KBP doing about this? Is there no regulatory agency to check on the abuses of broadcasters?
