Framing of news by mainstream media questioned by professor

 

Dr. Godiva Eviota-Rivera, a full professor at the Mindanao State University in Marawi City, who is an expert on language studies, has advised mainstream media in a social media post, to refrain from "using misnomer language." She noted that some news headlines "are heavily loaded," and wants "to condition our minds." 

She says. "your bittersweet tongue, it can never poison us!" She mentioned one reporter who asked Senator Ronald dela Rosa inside the Senate hall: “Why are you here?” Dr. Rivera said that the question is preposterous. "Is she a part of GMA’s regressing walang kinikilingan tagline? GMA, I dare you post this headline that fits your ideology," she adds.
