NAGBIGAY ng pahayag at reaksiyon si Direk Joey Reyes kaugnay sa paratang na bastos at imoral si Vice Ganda.
Inireklamo sa korte si Vice at ang asawa nitong si Ion Perez dahil sa harutan sa icing ng cake noong Hulyo 25 sa Isip Bata segment ng It’s Showtime.
Sabi ni Direk Joey sa panayam sa kanya ng Pep.PH, “I feel it’s an overreaction. ‘Yun ang sa akin lang, ha? It’s an overreaction because there are worse things that have been done in television. Which can be more criminal in context than eating icing in their fingers, hindi ba?”
Patuloy niya, “So, it’s a sign of the times na ang epekto ng social media sa pag-shape ng opinion ng tao, na kung minsan napapalaki ‘yung dapat ay hindi naman.
“It’s a bandwagon mentality, eh. It’s a bandwagon mentality but I hope, you know, eventually reason will win out, OK.
“I do not exactly approve of what they did. But not to the point of calling it a criminal act.
“Yeah, I mean it’s, maybe, mischievous. It may be out of context, but not to the point of calling it a criminal act.
“And it is so sad that so many people are being involved in it, OK. It’s so sad. In a way, it is unfair to Vice and to his partner.
“But at the same time, it gets to show the kind of society that we are becoming, ‘di ba? And the dangers of social media.”
