YELLOW. As Filipinos mourned the death of late President Corazon Aquino, the entire nation turned yellow, the color identified with this woman who became the symbol of Philippine freedom. Streets and trees displayed yellow ribbons and flaglets. Even this newspaper’s editorial printed the solid block of yellow color as tribute to Aquino. That color said it all.
HISTORICAL. A reader reacted to this paper’s Sunday editorial and said, “Sunday, August 2, 2009, The Freeman Editorial will go down in history of journalism, community newspaper a language of sapience. We got yellow!”
