4 columnists exposed for similar sin tax articles
MANILA, Philippines – What do 4 columnists of competing Philippine newspapers have in common? Their columns on the sin tax bill pending in the Senate bear similar content and form — all critical of Sen Franklin Drilon and his move to push for higher taxes on cigarettes and alcohol.
Columnists Alex Magno (Philippine Star), Ducky Paredes (Malaya Business Insight), Jojo Robles (Manila Standard Today), and Mary Ann Reyes (Philippine Star) have come under fire online after a poster showing their similar anti-sin tax columns circulated on Facebook.
