Magazine editor files raps vs actress Barreto
MAGAZINE editor Jo-Ann Maglipon has filed seven cases of libel against Claudine Barreto for the actress's allegedly damaging remarks against the journalist.
"Ms Barreto has caused damage to the hard-earned reputation and image of Ms Maglipon," Sandra Coronel, legal counsel of Maglipon, said on GMA Network's "24 Oras" evening newscast. "This is a criminal act."
Barreto filed last month an eight-million-peso suit against Maglipon, publisher of Yes and High magazines, for allegedly publishing photos of her and her daughter Sabrina without her consent.
Barreto also asked the court to bar Maglipon and her staff from getting near her, her immediate family, and places of residence.
Coronel said the film and TV actress had claimed before television and press interviews that Maglipon was an unprofessional journalist.
Raymund Fortun, lawyer of Barreto, would not comment and said he would like to see the charges first, GMA-7 reported.
Maglipon writes a column for the Philippine Daily Inquirer, a parent company of INQ7.net.
