The Idiotic, Irrelevant SMNI News

Once heralded as the bastion of truth and fairness, SMNI News has devolved into a tabloid circus, covering such hard-hitting stories as “Plants Weep for Quiboloy” and “Clouds Form Halo Over ‘Appointed Son of God’s’ Compound.” 

Gone are the days of factual reporting; instead, viewers are treated to sermon-turned-news segments where flowers allegedly wail in mourning for their dear leader’s capture. SMNI’s fall from grace, losing its franchise and retreating to the murky corners of social media, is as predictable as it is tragic. Once a network of promise, it now broadcasts propaganda, defending Apollo Quiboloy with religious zeal. 

But really, who needs journalistic integrity when you can have exclusive coverage of houseplants suffering religious persecution? As SMNI clings to relevance, one can only wonder—will the Kingdom’s shrubs and bushes testify on Quiboloy’s behalf during his trial? Stay tuned for breaking news—if you can find it.

Paris Olympic’s ‘Last Supper’ Tableau Had 17 Apostles!

The uproar over the “Last Supper” tableau at the Paris Olympics Opening Ceremony proves that in the age of social media, a good scandal never goes un-manufactured.

Viral photos, cropped to show only 13 actors (‘Jesus’ included), sparked outrage and accusations of sacrilege. However, a wider view reveals a bustling scene with 17 actors (plus ‘Jesus’). Whatever happened to the 12 Apostles we’ve been taught in Catholic school?

Were the viral photos intentionally cropped to ignite controversy? After all, nothing boosts engagement like a juicy scandal.

Is this a classic case of “much ado about nothing,” fueled by the modern penchant for outrage?

The only real crime here is that the actors had to pretend to enjoy a cold buffet for hours, while the world argued over who got left out of the frame.

The Debacle That Is Rigoberto Tiglao

When it comes to spreading fake news, sharing is not just caring—it’s culpable.

Take, for instance, the case of Rigoberto Tiglao, a former diplomat, presidential spokesperson, and newspaper columnist who has now become a prolific re-poster of false information.

Tiglao, who ironically authored a book titled “Debacle,” seems to have written his own script for a personal disaster in terms of honor, reputation, and credibility. It’s one thing for an average netizen to click ‘share’ without a second thought, but when a seasoned public figure joins the fray, it’s like watching a trained chef endorse fast food.

The real tragedy isn’t just that fake news continues to proliferate, but that its carriers now include those who once held positions of trust and authority. So, as Tiglao faces his own “Debacle,” we must ask: was it all a premonition, or merely an unintended autobiography?
