   There will never be another Filipino food critique who will parallel the skills of the late Doreen Fernandez.

   Perhaps I’m saying this to nudge the food critic and blogger wannabes. Let them know that just because they can speak English, own a computer, and have the power (or nepotism) to publish online and in print, it doesn’t give them the privilege to be called writers. Writers have to go through more than that. Genuine writers study journalism ethics, polish their grammar and spelling, and spend years practicing their art.

   We don’t want another Malu Fernandez or another set of People editors who are too lazy to edit and manage their contributors.

   correction: re 3rd paragraph of Kate – it’s not FRANCISCO. it’s FERNANDEZ. A lot of people make that mistake and I fear for Francisco’s reputation. She’s a friend of mine and has a stellar reputation in the industry she works in. Kindly make the correction.
