Convenient truth against Sara

WHEN an anthropologist writes, you would think there would be a conscious effort to be fair, balanced and factual. After all, anthropology is the "study of people throughout the world, their evolutionary history, how they behave, adapt to different environments, communicate and socialize with one another. The study of anthropology is concerned both with the biological features that make us human (such as physiology, genetic makeup, nutritional history and evolution) and with social aspects (such as language, culture, politics, family and religion)."

So, when one writes about Sara Duterte using a slingshot and concluding a crime has been committed, you would hope that the real reason, the facts, for such a reaction from the mayor of Davao would be included in his article. The writer advocates that "keeping quiet when things go wrong is the mentality of a slave, not a good citizen." But setting aside material facts while slanting his narrative is what?
