SAN FRANCISCO, CA January 12, 2015 - Media Newser Philippines or MNP, the popular go-to website for "News on Philippine Television News, recently released its annual list of Winners and Losers in Philippine News Yearend Report.
Included among the winners, with excerpts from their respective write-ups, are:
ABS-CBN Integrated News and Current Affairs Head Ging Reyes: "Under her leadership, the news division has become a place of a more serious reporting, with more focus on national news, foreign affairs — with the help of ABS-CBN Global — and enterprise stories, reason why it continues to garner considerable amount of critical praise. (TV Patrol Weekend took home a special journalistic recognition from the International Emmy Awards in 2014.). Also, ratings for the network's daily programs have stabilized, with its flagship newscast TV Patrol narrowing the gap with 24 Oras in Mega Manila, while consistently winning in Kantar Media's national TV ratings."
Beyond Politics with Lynda Jumilla: "For Lynda Jumilla, the past 12 months have been an exciting year where she established herself as the go-to political interviewer in local television, landing one big interview after another. From controversial politicians to major newsmakers, Jumilla's program on the ABS-CBN News Channel, Beyond Politics, was their primary destination."
ABS-CBN Global Reporters: "If there's anything that TFC: The Filipino Channel demonstrated last year is that no other news team does foreign news better than their ABS-CBN Global newsers. Through the likes of Balitang America anchor Gel Santos Relos and reporters Steve Angeles, Don Tagala, Bev Llorente, Henni Espinosa, and of course, Yong Chavez(now our three-time honoree), Pinoys in and outside the country got a more analytical summary of the news from all across America — be it the 2014 U.S. midterm elections, the Ebola virus, or stories of our kababayans bringing pride to this nation. ABS-CBN Global reporters have also exhibited the kind of journalists we need in local news, or at least in TV5 and 9TV — journalists who can write, shoot, edit their own stories without too much reliance on network producers."
ANC: The ABS-CBN News Channel: "The ABS-CBN News Channel has one again re-established itself as the first and top news destination by being the place where viewers can get news anytime of the day. From non-stop and wall-to-wall coverage of the many Senate hearings in 2014, to special reports and discussions on hot button issues — DAP scam, MRT, Hagupit. Bangsamoro peace process — ANC was the only news channel which lived up to its slogan of delivering news 24 hours a day, 7 days a week."
