OUR Eleksyon 2007 podcast recording sessions are private affairs, not press conferences which are open to the public or members of other publications. Which is why we’re surprised that representatives from other media outlets have gone to the INQUIRER.net office on several occasions.

To prevent these intrusions, we’ve indicated clearly in the letter of invitation we send to candidates who will guest on our podcasts that this is a private affair. Which is why I was surprised to find members of other media outlets once more inside the INQUIRER.net office during the recording of Mike Defensor’s podcast this afternoon.

Here are two videos of the GMA Network and ABC 5 reporters and TV crew members waiting to ambush Defensor after his podcast interview.
