Those who witnessed what Willie Revillame said against the update on Cory Aquino’s cortege last Monday during his show, the Wowowee, were embarrassed.

On Monday, Willie Revillame ordered the removal of the video of the former president’s cortege which was simultaneously shown with the Wowowee.

The Aquino family according to the family’s spokesperson considered it as “… regrettable and a crass attempt to desecrate the memory of the beloved Tita Cory.”

However, in my part, there’s no pambabastos in what he said. It’s of course better to stop the livestreaming of the cortege while the Wowowee show is on because the cortege and the Wowowee are directly oposite in emotion.

I understand what Willie Revillame’s thought. His intention was to show respect to the former president because for him simultaneously shown the Wowowee and the live coverage of the cortege was a show of disrespectful.

For me, it’s not Willie Revillame whom should we blame on this issue but the ABS-CBN management for allowing the Wowowee to be aired while the Filipino people are mourning. The ABS-CBN should suspend temporarily the show while the former president was not yet buried.

However, Willie had made mistakes too. Instead of ordering the removal of the livestreaming, Willie should request to the management to stop showing one of the two: Wowowee or Live coverage of Cory’sEntertainment cortege. If the ABS-CBN wanted to show the live coverage of the cortege then Wowowee should be stopped until Cory Aquino would be buried.
