It isn't always easy to find the logic but then mobs aren't known for their logic. They tend to repeat what they heard last and loudest.

IMO, GMA won the last presidential election and she should finish her term. My point is - she is not clinging to power, she won a presidential election.

I would say their model is more on NBC style. Getting the news out instead of getting the news right. I don’t think ABS-CBN and GMA 7 model is Fox News. I would say their model is more on NBC style.

So, yes, it's perception. It's insensitivity. Thing is, she didn't get elected to be sensitive. No president is. And to be more blunt about it, there is no relation between administrative/managerial capacity and being insensitive. It's like the Clinton-Lewinsky affair. He may have been immoral but that didn't make him a better or worse president.
