Freddie Cipres, a reporter, expressed his thoughts about Balitang A2Z’s situation on Facebook, claiming that he backed out of the news program alongside 80% of the production team.

The Zoe Broadcasting Network program Balitang A2Z just aired its pilot episode on July 26. Sadly it had to halt its production a week after.
Now, the questions viewers need answering are, will the news program return on-air? If so, when will it happen?
