spongebobby Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 max soliven, one of my favorite columnist has passed away...wala n ko mababasang mga kilometric but veryinformative columns... ohhh...didn't know he passed away na. he was good and the star won't be the same without him. my favorites right now are isagani cruz and manuel quezon III. it gave me the greatest pleasure when the two were subtly insulting each other after cruz wrote an anti-gay column.

Stephen A. Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 yup, manuel quezon III is very intelligent, napapanood ko din yung show nya sa anc, the explainer... Quote Link to comment
Leibstandarte Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Maximo V. Soliven. Manong Max is the last of his kind. The last of his generation of media men. He resume is very, very impressive. Covering numerous conflicts and internnational developments, meeting monarchy and different heads of state, he was a giant in his own right! His style of writing is very informative, poignant and greatly entertaining, if I may borrow the other poster's words: kilometric. Long it may be but it did not lack substance, reading his writings made you feel you were in the thick of it all! His grasp of history was very commendable, his mind is sharp and his tongue acerbic! His opinions are what I highly regard. They are fair, balanced, moderate and always practical. He is not into sensationalism nor does he resort to shock value, name calling or engage in mud slinging. He veers away from the popular line of thought and somehow the opinions which he expresses are those being shared by the majority of the people. I favor him over Conrado de Quiros (you suck big time girl!!!), MLQ III and others. Iba si Manong Max, he is above his contemporaries! Manong Max, vaya con Dios. Quote Link to comment

spongebobby Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 still love de quiros, still brilliant and incisive, but can't bear reading him everyday as his writing style can get tiring. he's like a dish that's best tasted only every once so often. i recently came across the works of i.p. soliongco, of the 50s and 60s chronicle. insightful op-ed.

mhengh Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 si Maurice Arcache palanggas...hehe joke lang... i used to love the columns of de Quiros pero puro nalang anti-GMA ang works nya nowadays... Quote Link to comment
blow_gobi Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Ambeth Ocampo - entertaining way of retelling Phil historyBoo Chanco - his manghuhula friend helps in making eco and pol forecast (magaling tsumamba!)Rina Jimenez David - feminist na nasa lugarPeter Wallce (Manila Standard Today) - Australian but very pinoy yung banat!Butch Dalisay - nice take on the middle class angst, besides he's a good friend (mutual admiration !)

BoyUnan Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 hands down , it's Conrad De Quiroz aside from his politics ; i like his fondness for Vinyl Records , Soccer and his support for Alternative Filipino Music/Musicians. Quote Link to comment
