The Philippine Daily Inquirer was quick to issue an apology for running on its front page a spoof cover of Time Magazine showing President Benigno Aquino with his mouth agape.

The red-bordered erratum featured prominently below the fold on the front page of one of the Philippines' most widely circulated broadsheets was published April 21, the day after it committed the gaffe.

"In the April 20 issue, a photo of President Aquino and its caption gave the wrong impression that it was the cover of Time Magazine," the erratum read.

"While Mr. Aquino was cited by Time as among the 100 most influential people in the world, he was not on the cover of the magazine. Our apologies," it added.

But was the apology enough?

Well, it was "more than what we can expect from most newsrooms," media watchdog Center for Media Freedom and Responsibility said, welcoming the Inquirer statement.

"The Inquirer admitted its mistake, and that's about what we can expect," CMFR deputy director Luis Teodoro told Yahoo! Southeast Asia Monday.

This, even as he noted how the Inquirer was unable to explain how it had gotten hold of the image of the cover which it attributed to Time.

"One can accept that they mistakenly assumed Mr. Aquino was part of the cover. But where did they [the Inquirer] get the cover they used?" Teodoro said in a phone interview.

Spin Busters, a satirical website critiquing Philippine media, however, was less forgiving of what it called "a stupid mistake."

"The monumental error cost PDI a lot of credibility points especially among the social media crowd," said the website, which was among the first to call Inquirer out on the error.

"No netizen in his or her right mind would have mostaken that meme of President BS Aquino--with his mouth wide open--for a Time Magazine cover," Spin Busters said.

It also raised concern over "the apparent tolerance of incompetence within the country's most influential newsroom."

"Next time editors at the Inquirer commit a glaring gaffe, they can use 'honest mistake' as an excuse for what's really a stupid mistake," Spin Busters said.

...may maipalabas lang na "sensational" content..

Ganun na ba katanga ang mga researchers nila para hindi malaman kung anong cover meron ang TIME magazine?

Ang issue kasi dito, nagamit ang TIME magazine for bad publicity.. saka ayon sa articlr, kasi hindi sa ninoy ang nasa cover photo and for time magazine malaki kasiraan para reputasyon.

I think it's in bad taste. Andami naman pwedeng picture bakit yung unflattering pa.

I don't like his politics, I think he is overhyped, and masyado pa pogi and media baby pero to make him look like a fool and his appearance stupid eh hindi naman yata tama.

Debate his policies if you want to, pero appearance? Come on.

The guy is the President of the Philipines. Respect his office at least.

It just goes to show true journalism is rare these days, only a bunch of opinion makers, comedians and pundits.

hindi man lang nirespeto ang pagka presidente.... mga bobo nga yang taga inquirer na yan... kahit papano ok naman si pinoy, marami na ngang mga nasa mataas na posisyun na corrupt ang napatalsik nya eh.. tsaka palagay ko lang si ninoy hindi na kelangan mag corrupt sa kaban ng pinas kc napakayaman na ng pamilya nila...

siguro kahit sino pang maging presidente natin marami parin tayong panget na masasabi sa kanya...hehe
