IN the past several weeks
members of the homegrown Iglesia Ni Cristo (INC), the third-largest religious denomination
in the Philippines, are said to have called for a boycott against a leading
broadcast network for its “biased reporting.” The reason: The “family” network,
they claim, has been blowing out of proportion the smallest incidents in the
INC’s internal affairs and making every move of expelled members worthy of
coverage and airtime.
The INC has made it clear that
it has not issued any official boycott orders. But it hastened to add that it
cannot prevent individual members from expressing their displeasure regarding
alleged one-sided reporting through both mainstream and social media.
