Sectoral groups, government officials and individuals supporting the administration of President Arroyo have spent at least P5 million in advertisements in three major broadsheets over the past three weeks.

Based on Newsbreak’s calculations, supporters of the Arroyo administration forked out P5.121 million for advertisements in the Philippine Daily Inquirer, the Philippine Star, and the Manila Bulletin from February 16-March 10, 2008.
