On Friday, Kim Atienza, popularly known as “Kuya Kim”, posted a photo of himself in front of the ABS-CBN broadcasting center on Instagram.
However, out of nowhere, a netizen commented, “Move on na Kim”.
Though the intention of the netizen is not clear, Kuya Kim replied to the comment.
“Buhay pa ang ABS, gusto mo iwanan ko? Anong move on? God bless you,” Kim commented.

Many other netizens also backed Kuya Kim and ABS-CBN from the troll who insisted that the franchise denial of the network is the right decision of Congress.
Last month, the House of Representatives officially put an end to the broadcast of the ABS-CBN as they refuse to grant a fresh franchise for the media giant.
With this, ABS-CBN then announced ts retrenchment program to cut costs. About 90% of the workforce will lose their jobs, including celebrities and journalists.
Many celebrities like Pokwang, Jessy Mendiola, and Ria Atayde announced new shows on the TV5 network. Radio broadcasters like Ted Failon and DJ Chacha shifted to Radyo5 while the tandem Anthony Taberna, and Gerry Baja moved to DZRH.
And on August 28, the regional network groups of ABS-CBN officially bid farewell from broadcast as part of the retrenchment program of the network.
