in the Philippines, there’s no branch of law  called “entertainment law”. but maybe there should be. 

Here, (in the discussion tomorrow), it’s both about entertainment and the new media.

“The Buzz” takes on impersonators in the Twitterverse,  or among Twitter users — in particular,  those who steal the identities of celebrities and create  ”fake” Twitter accounts. (yes, it is a form of stealing; one’s identity is part of one’s person; reputation is considered property by law and therefore, when another person pretends to be you and conducts transactions and sends messages pretending to be you, it’s a form of theft — “identity theft” (when the impersonator manages to mulct money through it, it’s also swindling or estafa.)

What do you do when you are being impersonated in a Twitter account?

Watch tomorrow’s The Buzz! ABS-CBN Channel 2 (free tv), 4:30pm-6pm.The discussion appears in the final segment…

[thank you to the The Buzz staff for giving me time to fix myself  i had/ am having cramps today. never took/ take medicine for any and therefore arrived a little late for the interview: Thank you for your patience, sweeties. Thanks to “Khrysta’s Kollezione” again. the interview was probably mostly  headshots so in case you don’t see the item from “Khrysta’s Kolezzione”, it was aquamarine, light, lots of ruffles, here it is, shot 30 minutes after the interview,  comfortable and breezy fabric and cut , just to show my appreciation, hope didn’t look like i was in pain during the interview)
