December 15- Media Release Date; November 4-8- Survey Commission Date- Indication that there is an ongoing attempt to shape PUBLIC OPINION at the most non-urgent time
-------------------
The headline of some media outfits itself already does injustice to those who take the news as it is.
The question posed by the SWS Survey does not categorically even ask who would you vote for as President of the Republic of the Philippines come May 2010. It only asks for three names who are the respondents' preference to replace PGMA.
The even bigger question lies in the fact that their releases are way behind schedule, as the December 15 Media Release was for a survey that was commissioned from Nov. 4 to 8. We all know that people have this perception that even this was a month overdue, a built-in impression is created that the recent survey goes above all recent developments that have gone in the most recent days or weeks.
I do not question the veracity of the survey, but the timing WHEN it was released, just so when obviously, Sec. Gibo Teodoro is already gaining steam, given the resounding feedback because of the recent Presidential forums and his out of town speeches. This is a JOB being done to MALIGN the IMPRESSION to note that the RECENT ADVANCES of Gibo does not actually translate into votes, where in fact these RESULTS came way before he even relinquished his duties as DND Head and succeeded Party leadership.
The survey in fact still included VP Noli De Castro, Sen. Loren Legarda, Sen. Mar Roxas and Sen. Chiz Escudero, all of which later declared their non-intention to seek the Presidency. This brazen delay somehow builds an impression of fielding many candidates at a correlative cost of decreasing one's percentage.
This survey does not take into account recent strides that has endeared him to many Filipino's, and this media release is intended to SHAPE the PUBLIC's PERCEPTION that since the release came after those strides, that NO STRIDES at ALL were being made even with the recent moves made by the former DND Secretary. MEDIA will only HIGHLIGHT who's leading, at what figures, but they WILL viciously HIDE the important factors like the COMMISSION DATE just so that they could impress upon voters that despite the visibility of Sec. Teodoro, it has not translated into actual survey votes.
This is completely a strategy which continues to misrepresent at the URGENT TIMING, the views, opinions and the real sentiments of the people.
Please be forewarned about this attempt to once again demonize this process of getting public opinion.
