“Below’s an excerpt from the letter that was sent to the producer of the show last August 11:
‘I appreciate that you found artistic inspiration from the original photos. Unfortunately, there is the inescapable consequence that legal and moral rights were violated here. And as you may very well be aware of, established industry practice is against such act as it amounts to disrespect. Worst of all, as a father and husband, I cannot help but feel offended and deeply hurt by such actions, which happened not just once, but twice. Basic rules of courtesy in this case dictate that you first secure permission from the photographer and my Family.’
(Here’s a video clip that was edited and forwarded to me by the Dongyanatics. The video highlights select scenes from Ang Probinsyano televised on November 9, 2017 and August 8, 2018.)”
‘Ang Probinsyano’ has not yet released a statement regarding the matter as of writing.
