8 More Plausible Bribes Than $1000
Feb 22, 2017 • Kel Fabie
In a shocking reversal early this week, retired Davao police office Arthur Lascanas completely recanted his earlier testimony in October, this time declaring that the so-called Davao Death Squad does indeed exist, and admitting to being one of the hitmen. This makes two self-confessed murderers who are currently not in prison saying so, but apparently, we’d rather take the word of five Bilibid prisoners under government watch and key.
In what could only be described as laughable, Press Secretary and Steve Bannon lookalike contest winner Martin Andanar resorted to accusing the senate press of being offered up to $1,000 to cover the said press conference.
Makeup transformation?
Naturally, the senate media were not amused, and demanded an apology from Andanar. After all, if you were going to bribe the mainstream media to actually, y’know, do its job, you have to try harder than $1000. You have to try something like…

An actual news story anyone would be an idiot to not cover.

Or maybe, the opportunity to cover possibly one of the biggest news stories of the day was actually reason enough for the media to flock to the press conference, right? Who knows, maybe these guys just actually wanted to do their job without having to be accused of being bribed?
