ABS-CBN issues a statement on house bills filed by lawmakers seeking to grant a franchise. Below is the full statement:
While we were not aware of Rep. Joey Salceda’s filing of a bill to grant a broadcast franchise to ABS-CBN today, we are deeply grateful for his support and belief in ABS-CBN’s contributions and mission to serve the Filipino public.
