TV broadcaster Korina Sanchez vehemently denied the rumors that she is headhunting for Manny Villar’s new network – Advanced Media Broadcasting Systems (AMBS).
Rumors has it that Korina is poaching talents in order to beefed up the talent roster of AMBS.
On Instagram, Korina issued the following clarification:
“Once and For All. No, it is not true.
There has been no communication whatsoever between myself and anyone officially representing former Senator and tycoon Manny Villar’s supposed new network.
After the online article came out I was surprised people were applying for jobs to me🤪. I was not aware of the news circulating. My press agent called and said I needed to issue a statement. I said, “Huway? About huwat?”. Anyway, I did a short one. Seems it wasnt enough. So here, irrefutably:
1. Im thrilled to be called a “fab hunter”.
2. Im a Lara Croft in many ways but I hardly ever “raid”. And, in this case, I havent “raided” any workforce to try and pirate people to work for the Villar network, or any other network.
3. If at all, Ive only called my good friend Cheryl Favila and Maricar Asprec once or twice to ask if either of them know of anyone without work—- because I have work waiting for my own show Rated Korina airing on both TV5 and A2Z. Cheryl and Maricar are not “helping me pirate people”. Chair is lucratively freelance as she is.
4. I have not given any interviews about working with the Villar channel. Im not sure where the quotes are coming from. But it is true that the heads of all these networks are friends to me, and me to them.
5. I am a broadcaster and journalist and creative mind at heart. It is what I do best, I think. I produce my own shows now. So, whenever and wherever I am welcome, and there is an opportunity, I will listen and possibly collaborate. I am very happy being in TV5 and A2Z as a line producer via Brightlight.
So, again, yes Id like to think Im a “fab hunter”. But, no, Im not headhunting for the Villar Network.”
