GMA-7 released an official statement in reply to the reason given by the camp of presidential aspirant Bongbong Marcos in as far as why Bongbong decided not to participate in the Presidential Interview program hosted by journalist Jessica Soho.
According to the BBM camp, Bongbong decided to skip the said interview because they believe that Soho is “biased against the Marcoses.”
GMA defended Soho by saying that Soho has consistently been named the most trusted media personality in the Philippines by both local and foreign organizations.
“Throughout her career, Ms. Soho has consistently been named the most trusted media personality in the Philippines by both local and foreign organizations, a testament to her embodying the GMA News and Public Affairs ethos: “Walang Kinikilingan, Walang Pinoprotektahan, Serbisyong Totoo Lamang.”
This same ethos has guided Ms. Soho and the whole GMA News and Public Affairs organization, which is the most trusted media organization in the Philippines, according to the University of Oxford/Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism.
It is unfortunate that Mr. Marcos has chosen to decline the invitation extended by the network to participate in “The Jessica Soho Presidential Interviews,” even as four other aspirants — Sen. Panfilo Lacson, Manila Mayor Isko Moreno, Sen. Manny Pacquiao, and Vice President Leni Robredo — have chosen to participate and take the opportunity to explain their advocacies to the public.” the GMA-7 statement said.
Here is the full statement of GMA-7:
