The Manila Times: Editorial for 01/05/2000: Birth pains, not a crippled presidency -- a good example of how Mark Jimenez and his son's puppet editors EFFECTIVELY twisted the paper's editorial policies into something which is clearly representative of their obedience to the dictates of Prexy Erap Estrada and his friends from the netherworld, including the owners and the editorial board. Read on, and see the difference from The Times a year ago to The Times of today! Ano'ng sey n'yo dyan?
The Manila Times: Opinion for 01/04/2000: The Manila Times must never die -- an columnist's admission of the new fate of the paper.
The Manila Times: News Article for 01/08/2000: Top banker heads new Times board -- the story chronicling the final stage of the full take=over of Mark Jimenez of The Times, although the story doesn't mention of the crook himself. Note that Marcel Crespo, the wanted presidential crony/friend's son, is now the executive vice prexy of the Strategic Publishing Inc., the firm that publishes the paper.
The Manila Times: News Article for 01/05/2000: New Times team: 150 years of skill -- the story chronicling the formal announcement of changes in the central desk/newsroom of The Times. Take note also that the title of the article itself is also amusing for us, especially some who knew the date the paper was founded by one Thomas Cowan in 1898. Para bang ang BOBO ng sumulat niyan! This 2000, The Times is only 102 years old, not 150!!! ANG TANGA, ANO??? Also take note of the past backgrounds of these members of the new central desk: All of them WORKED IN PRO-GOVERNMENT NEWSPAPERS/NEWS ORGANIZATIONS!!!
The Philippine Star: News Article for 01/11/2000: 'MJ' eyes Manila congressional post -- a latebreaking story about apprehensions of congresspersons from the city of Manila regarding fugitive businessperson Mark Jimenez who is said to be running for the congressional seat for the city's 5th district in next year's elections. Please take note of a phrase in the story: "Jimenez, who is also said to be bankrolling a newspaper whose offices are in Ermita...". By mere intuition, it is not that difficult to say that the newspaper Jimenez is bankrolling refers to nothing else but The Manila Times.
