Why are you offended, really?

"Maybe it is shallow, but so what? This transport crisis really makes you think."

They were the show.
On the last day of May, when the trio of Tito and Vic Sotto and Joey De Leon announced their separation from TAPE (Television and Production Exponents Inc), the company that produces Eat Bulaga, it marked the end of an era in ...
