Just when I thought publisher Max Soliven has finally curbed his propensity for appearing in the frontpage of his own newspaper, he pops up again! This time appearing not just in one photo, but in TWO!
There he was in last Sunday's edition of The Philippine Star. On the left, Max smiles beside president Gloria Macapagal Arroyo, just hours after her cabinet demands her resignation. On the right, Max smiles beside pajama-clad former president Erap Estrada, for whom he braves a tropical storm to visit in the hospital.
The cynical among us would call Max a two timing "sanamagan" (to borrow Max's favorite expression). But not miron. I'll just say that, well, Max was just trying to (ahem) get all sides and (ahem) appear fair and balanced.
In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if Max has already dug up file photos of himself smiling beside Cory and FVR, Loren Legarda and Noli de Castro, Franklin Drilon and Lito Atienza, and JUST IN CASE, REZ CORTEZ.
Because these days, you just never know...you just never know.
