Despite intercession of some sectors for a ceasefire to a heated exchange of barbs that had gone sour, City Mayor Dan Neri Lim continued yesterday his tirades against the twin media outlet Bohol Chronicle and its radio station DyRD.
In his regular Saturday morning radio program, heard now on air over station dyTR, Mayor Lim reiterated his challenge for a debate of the brothers that he branded as "Self- Righteous."
He particularly picked,  callingg for a public debate, the brothers Zoilo "Bingo" Dejerasco III and Peter P. Dejerasco; editor in chief and radio station manager, respectivley.
"For 54 years, wa moy mga sala, sagrado mo? You are always right." the city mayor went on, questioning the credibility of the media outfit.
"The bottom line is charachter of a person," the mayor said.
"Maayo kabang bana, maayo kabang amahan," the mayor aimed his guns personally leveled against Bingo Dejerasco.
"If you destroy me, I might as well go ahead destroy you," as he renewed his tirade on the personalities of Chronicle and dyRD.
The city mayor had pulled out his two-hour radio program over dyRD following an editorial of the Chronicle paper questioning his his alleged indiscretion on the city drainage problem that had caused the frequent flooding of low-lying areas in the city.
Explaining his change of mind regarding his preious standd to finally cut these alleged illegal connections to the drainage canals, the city mayor quoted India's icon Indira Gandhi saying "he has aquired wisdom today and he is a better person now than yesterday".
Mayor Lim said he doesn't consider the twin-media as to stay forever citing the collapse of the financail intitution Lehmans Brothers.
The mayor also questioned the caricature in the paper allegedly portraying him a bad guy.
Bingo Dejerasco had refused to dignify the comments of mayor Lim and had opted to personally keep out of the heat, not heard on air; not yet as of now, a dyRD source said.
