Party party, P-Noy!

The incident in CDO is really not good to see and hear. Young or old, rich or poor, male or female, Living or non-living thing, nothing is excepted; all are swept away by the flash flood that kills thousands of people and damaged millions of properties. This incident always happen on different places here in our country, but our government still can’t find a solution for this problem. Many said that it is the logs from the mountain that kills the majority in Typhoon Sendong victims’, there are some that says they informed the people but they refused to evacuate, but other < issues on sending>

This incident happens days before holiday season comes. Where everybody was busy about their Christmas clothes, Christmas party, Christmas gift, and everything concern about Christmas and people in CDO was mourning. And just like as many other incidents happened, the government was blamed. And of course, P-Noy has so many critics that’s why on the middle of the Christmas party that he attended, boom! The spotlight was pointed on him. Supporters and his advisers say that the party was already ready; all the things regarding the party were already paid so it can not be stop anymore. Critics argued that it is better for the president if he did not come to the party, just for the sake of delicadeza. It is not good to see a president on the party when a part of his nation is in grief. But government still has a reason for that, HE JUST DROPPED BY. If we will put it in the context of communication theory, this is like the coordinated management of meaning.

CMM Theory

           Coordinated management of meaning (CMM), is a practical theory that sees communication as doing things fully as much as talking about them. “Taking the communication perspective” consists of looking at communication (rather than through it to what it is ostensibly about) and seeing it as a two-sided process of (1) coordinating actions with others, and (2) making/managing meanings.
