jopoc Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 No apologies wanted! For decades, the Lopezes have been exploiting their control over ABS-CBN to influence the Philippine politics to favor their vested interests. No more! They should just divest their interests in ABS-CBN and look for a professional, non-oligarch-owned corporation to take over. Hopefully, stupid dramas like Probinsyano would be taken off the air already. like dennis uy? Quote Link to comment
camiar Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 (edited) ^^^ Does he own a professionally managed, non-oligarch-controlled entertainment media or broadcasting corporation? Will Lopez sell to Dennis Uy in the first place? How about to the owners of GMA Network -- Gozon, Jimenez, and Duavit families? Or to TV 5 --- Manny Pangilinan? The Lopezes can divest their ABS-CBN ownership to a public corporation and the non-owner management and staff of ABS-CBN can form their own corporation and professionally manage the network themselves.

Do we let lawyers define what should stop and what should continue just on the basis of legality? Quote Link to comment
lee sawyer Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 If the SC agrees with the quo warranto, that's all she wrote for ABS-CBN. It's simple as that. Quote Link to comment

camiar Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 better than letting a random guy just define what is dumb and what is not? defining dumb is easy. if you enjoy ABS-CBN's noontime shows and the never-ending Probinsyano saga, and think they're smart, that's your poison. try defining right and wrong.

camiar Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 ^^^ Spoken like a true lawyer. Yes, marketing-wise, it's smart. And nothing illegal about that. But no matter what your disclaimer is about your "neutral" position, it's implies to me that it's not in your taste because it's dumb, to be honest. That's why ABS-CBN is accused of dumbing down the masses to make it easy for them to influence their choices and opinions on political and social issues. For somebody like you who saw the value of Jojo Binay as Presidential candidate despite the black propaganda by the oligarchs, ABS-CBN included, I know you can discern the real truth from what seems to be true.
