ABS-CBN News expresses its sincerest apologies to the students of UP Los Banos for the errors committed by ABS-CBNnews.com in 2 articles about the forum of UP Los Banos students with Vice President Jejomar Binay last September 15.

In our effort to provide a more comprehensive coverage of the forum, one of our writers mistook the word "sample" for "trapo."

We immediately corrected this right after we were alerted about the mistake on September 16, 2015.

We will be taking disciplinary steps against those responsible for this oversight.

Please note that there were other articles uploaded on our website about the event, including these below, in the hope of providing other perspectives about the forum.
