CNN’s Anderson Cooper vs. Korina Sanchez of ABS-CBN
THANK YOU Mr. Anderson Cooper. I can feel how much you care for the Filipino people. You are much more human than my fellow Filipinos (the government officials) who just shrugged their shoulders when the Mayor of Tacloban, immediately begged for help. Just like you, my tears of desperation continous. Don’t worry, the Filipinos believe in you more than that woman anchor. You are so credible as a journalist! We support you!
