    It's been a while since I've found something relevant to post but this one bit of news certainly got my attention this morning...

    Saw this on ABS-CBN news on TV, so I can't really type exact details, but here goes:

    Veteran automotive journalist Vernon Sarne got into a heated argument with VW/Audi (pls correct me if i'm wrong) Philippines head honcho Peter Rodriguez during the Nexus launch last night. Said argument resulted in a brawl.

    As far as I remember, I think one of the parties is filing a case for physical assault--I think it was Vernon Sarne I saw saying this (he's filing a case). And then Rodriguez said, "he's not seen the car in the flesh, how should he judge the car if he hasn't even seen it!"

    isn't it rude to offend your host?

    wether or not he has a point, it's like entering someone's house and insulting the person who prepared the meal di ba?

    being a journalist he should have just kept his thoughts on paper....

    geez....and that's the new editor in chief of topgear? uh oh.....


    better change my subscriptions haha

    Eh kilalang Toyota/Isuzu/Honda/Mitsu/Ford *ss kisser(member ng SPMJ,mga bayarang walang alam na motoring journalist..) yang si Sarne baka akala nya porket nasa TGP na siya may karapatan na siyang mag salita nang ganyan. Buti nga lang sa kanya yan... Magsalita siya nang ganyan kung nakita na niya.
