ATLANTA, Georgia (The Adobo Chronicles®) – It looks like Don Lemon is not the only weird journalist in the CNN newsroom.
The cable news network today aired a breaking news segment about London’s Pride Parade in which a reporter claimed that she witnessed a man waving an ISIS flag.
CNN, which prides itself to be the expert in terms of international news, should know what the ISIS flag looks like, right?
Well, it turns out that what the reporter saw as an ISIS flag was a black banner which was emblazoned with dildos and butt plugs.
CHICAGO, Illinois (The Adobo Chronicles ® ) – In this modern Internet age, one should always exercise critical thinking when reading or listening to the news. That applies to FOX News, CNN, or The Onion.
Yesterday, The Onion reported that its long-time CEO, Steve Hanna, is stepping down.
And that’s the truth, and nothing but. No, really, even if you’re reading it here on The Adobo Chronicles ® .
2013 Miss Universe Gabriela Isler with Donald Trump
MIAMI, Florida (The Adobo Chronicles ®) – Real Estate mogul and owner of the Miss Universe Pageant Donald Trump announced last week he is running for president of the United States. In his kick-off speech, he said that if elected, he will build a “great wall” on the border and make Mexico pay for it because Mexico is sending immigrants who are rapists, drug dealers and criminals.
Now, Trump is eating his own words and is suffering from constipation.
Univision, the leading Spanish-language network has announced that it is firing Donald Trump. The network will not be airing the Miss U.S.A. Pageant scheduled for July 12 because of Trump’s “offensive remarks about Mexican immigrants.” “Neither are we airing the next Miss Universe Pageant,” it said.
Mexico and other Spanish-speaking countries in South America constitute the largest share of audiences for the highly popular international beauty competition. Representatives of Mexico and other Latin countries consistently fare very well in the competition and collectively have the most number of Miss Universe crowns.
There is growing speculation that Mexico and the other Latin countries may not be sending any representatives to the Miss Universe Pageant this year because of Trump’s racist remarks.
That would spell big trouble for Trump because without the Latin candidates, the Miss Universe Pageant would not generate the kind of huge audiences that it usually enjoys.
Because the Philippines has very close ties with Mexico and most countries in South America, local Philippine networks are also contemplating about not airing the Miss Universe Pageant.
Stella Marquez-Araneta, head of the Binibining Pilipinas Charities which holds the Philippine franchise for the Miss Universe Pageant, told The Adobo Chronicles® that she plans to eliminate the Miss Philippines-Universe crown and try to buy the local franchise for the Miss World Pageant instead.
