MANY people reacted when it was announced by Malacañang that film director Paul Soriano, who is the husband of actor Toni Gonzaga, and is a blood relative of first lady Liza Araneta-Marcos, had been appointed presidential adviser for creative communications.This generated many negative comments, mainly from the crowd composed of those who voted for one of the losing candidates.

There are also many documented examples of how TV soap operas have effectively influenced changes in public behavior.
