The Jessica Soho Presidential Interviews by GMA News is out! This is the first time almost all the presidential candidates are put side by side for the people to watch. Emphasis on almost.
In this episode we talked about Bongbong Marcos' absenteeism. We explored how his supporters defended him, how his opponents attacked him, and how he is losing people the people on the fence. Could this be a weak point for the BBM and Sara Duterte camp?
We also talked about the format that Jessica Soho went for in the interviews. We questioned why a lot of the questions were rehashed personality questions while a lot of the important issues that we needed to hear about was crammed into a speed round.
The public reception was also up for discussion. We went in depth into how Leni Robredo and her supporters reacted to her performance, how Panfilo Ping Lacson gained ground, how Isko Moreno sweet talked his way through the entire interview, and how Manny Pacquiao kept rehashing his 3 main points to answer almost all of the questions.
