ABS-CBN: Way Kurat: The damage has been done "Yung mga 1 million na tao na nadinig ang issue, 'yun din ba ang mga taong makikinig sa sorry? Na-realize ko, it's futile. Wala na eh, nasira na... Ngayon kahit saan ako pumunta, ang mga tao nakatingin sa akin," he told dzMM on Thursday. He added that he spoke to COA chair Maria Gracia Pulido-Tan and asked her to double check the records, but Tan defended the audit findings. "Sabi ko, sigurado ba kayo na sa akin 'yan sabi ko take a last glance, baka ma-realize niyo na mali. Sabi niya sa akin, hindi kami pwede magkamali," said Zamora.

ANC: MIRIAM - "A policeman cannot be adviser to a Senate committee probing the pork barrel, because this is a question of law. He has no clue on how the law proceeds in these cases. After a cop finishes his investigation, the report is submitted to the prosecutor, not the other way around," she said.
ANC: Miriam on Senate pork probe - Santiago particularly scoffed at the idea that a former senator, whom she called "Pinky Lacson," should act as adviser or consultant to the Senate Blue Ribbon Committee during its hearings, "because he is a former fugitive from justice who remains unpunished and serves as the poster boy for people like Napoles who has disappeared to evade a warrant of arrest, just like he did."
ANC: Miriam on Senate pork probe - Sen. Miriam Defensor Santiago said that if the Senate proceeds with its public hearing on the COA report concerning billions of pesos in PDAF funds allocated by certain lawmakers to suspicious NGOs, "the result could be a freewheeling talkfest, if if not a total three-ring circus as senators vie for TV exposure."
ANC: A taxpayer urged the Mandaluyong City RTC on Thursday to stop the DOTC from proceeding with its Aug. 28 bidding for the multi-billion peso rehabilitation of the Mactan-Cebu International Airport -- the first airport project to be bid out under public-private partnership during the term of Pres. Benigno Aquino III. In his petition for injunction Danilo B. Cruz, a resident of Hagonoy, Bulacan, sought the immediate issuance of a TRO and/or writ of preliminary injunction against the DOTC's Bids and Awards Committee which has set the bidding for the P17.5-billion MCIA Passenger Terminal Building Project. Cruz said he file the taxpayer's suit due to "some serious and glaring violations of the law" committed by the DOTC.
