I don’t know that there’s an issue about ‘media payoffs’ which among the alleged recipients named in the report were Erwin Tulfo, a news anchor with TV5 and radio commentator on 92.3 News FM, and Carmelo del Prado Magdurulang, a broadcaster with dzBB. This is still about alleged that payoffs in the form of ‘advertising expenses’ were given to media practitioners during the heyday of Janet Lim-Napoles’ pork barrel scam which were exposed by Philippine Daily Inquirer on Wednesday. Anyways, below is the official statement released by GMA Network, also posted on their official Facebook page.
Here’s the official statement from GMA-DZBB:
GMA Network places strict and utmost importance on the professional and ethical conduct and behavior of all its employees particularly those engaged in the field of news and public affairs in all platforms.
Any and all information regarding any activity that runs counter to our core values and code of standard are taken very seriously.
