Finally, the news that all humans have been waiting for. I welcome the news from pinoycelebritybuzz.com about Cristy's suspension. I just hate the wrong grammar.
Here's part of the blog:
"She is suspended as host from ABS-CBN’s “The Buzz” and as anchorperson from DZMM’s “Showbiz Mismo” until December 31, 2008.
ABS-CBN also said that Cristy Fermin violates the company’s high standard of professionalism and integrity in journalism which is detrimental not only to her name and credibility but also that of “The Buzz” and ABS-CBN."
1. You don't host FROM a particular show, you are host OF a show. So, Cristy Fermin is suspended as host of ABS-CBN's "The Buzz" and as anchorperson OF DZMM's etc etc.
2. That is a wicked, dangling dependent clause you got in there. What you are saying is that the integrity in journalism is detrimental to Cristy and the TV station. How so? Just divide the confusing statement into two:
ABS-CBN also said that Cristy Fermin violates the company’s high standard of professionalism and integrity in journalism. Such a violation is detrimental not only to her name and credibility but also that of “The Buzz” and ABS-CBN.
And while we are at it, I have two objections:
a. I object to the insinuation that Cristy Fermin had credibility prior to the violation.
b. I object to the term of the suspension. Why not extend her suspension until December 31, 2220.
