P50-M DOJ drug bribe ‘unfairly divided’

January 4, 2009

Reports about the alleged P50-million bribe for the release of three prominent drug trafficking suspects would not have not leaked out if the money had been divided fairly among its supposed recipients, a source claimed yesterday.

A new informant, who asked not to be named, confirmed to The STAR an earlier report that P50 million allegedly changed hands to expedite the release of drug suspects Richard Brodett, Jorge Joseph and Joseph Tecson before the long Christmas break.

“This is a case of cheating – cheating in dividing (of the bribe money) among prosecutors,” the source said.

According to the source, the members of a panel who investigated the case and recommended its dismissal supposedly only received P10 million out of the P50 million.

Shock Forced Paulson’s Hand

September 22, 2008

When government officials surveyed the flailing American financial system this week, they didn’t see only a collapsed investment bank or the surrender of a giant insurance firm. They saw the circulatory system of the U.S. economy — credit markets — starting to fail.

Huddled in his office Wednesday with top advisers, Treasury Secretary Henry Paulsonwatched his financial-data terminal with alarm as one market after another began go haywire. Investors were fleeing money-market mutual funds, long considered ultra-safe. The market froze for the short-term loans that banks rely on to fund their day-to-day business. Without such mechanisms, the economy would grind to a halt. Companies would be unable to fund their daily operations. Soon, consumers would panic.

Mad Men’ and `30 Rock’ win top Emmys

LOS ANGELES - The sleek ’60s drama "Mad Men" made Emmy history Sunday as the first basic-cable show to win a top series award, while the sitcom "30 Rock" and its starsTina Fey and Alec Baldwin also emerged as big winners.

"We’re all so very grateful to have jobs in this turkey-burger economy," Fey said after accepting the best comedy series trophy for her satire about a late-night TV show.

"This is the greatest job I’ve ever had in my life," Baldwin said of his role an a network executive.

He paid tribute to Fey, the NBC show’s star and creator, as "theElaine May of her generation."

"I thank my parents for somehow raising me to have confidence that is disproportionate with my looks and abilities. Well done. That is what all parents should do," said Fey, who also won for best actress and writing in a comedy series.

Emmy voters rewarded quality, not ratings: Many of the winners draw relatively small audiences. AMC’s "Mad Men," which looks at America through the prism of Madison Avenue, is lucky to get 2 million viewers.

Glenn Close of FX’s "Damages" and Bryan Cranston of AMC’s "Breaking Bad" captured drama acting trophies.

Close, honored for her portrayal of a ruthless attorney, complimented her fellow nominees, including Holly Hunter and Sally Field.

"We’re proving that complicated, powerful, mature women are sexy in high entertainment and can carry a show," she said. "I call us the sisterhood of the TV drama divas."

Cranston won the trophy for his role of a desperate man who turns to making drugs.

Dianne Wiest of "In Treatment" and Zeljko Ivanek of "Damages" won supporting acting honors for the drama series. Jean Smart of ABC’s "Samantha Who?" was honored as best supporting actress in a comedy series, with Jeremy Piven her actor counterpart for "Entourage."

I hear it all the time
I’m never gonna melt it much but they’re never going to change my mind
Oh

[Chorus]
Tell me, tell me, tell me something I don’t know, something I don’t know, something I don’t know [Repeat]
