The #SupremeCourtPH (SC) has dismissed the complaint of GMA Network, Inc. (GMA) against ABS-CBN Broadcasting Corporation (ABS-CBN) over alleged defamatory statements accusing GMA of manipulating a TV ratings survey.
In a Decision penned by Associate Justice Japar B. Dimaampao, the SC’s Third Division denied two consolidated petitions—a complaint for damages filed by GMA and the counterclaims filed by ABS-CBN—ruling that the aired statements of ABS-CBN hosts are qualified privileged communications and constitute a fair and true report that GMA personnel visited homes to influence a TV ratings survey.
The SC ruled that the utterances made by ABS-CBN’s hosts and guest speakers are considered qualified privileged communications and constitute a fair and true report based on their interpretation of an AGB Nielsen executive’s radio interview and the data analysis report submitted by AGB Nielsen.
The SC emphasized that there was no malice in the airing of the statements because they were supported by documentary evidence.
ABS-CBN’s counterclaims were also dismissed. The SC said GMA was able to establish a cause of action based on the belief that the subject statements aired on ABS-CBN’s programs were defamatory.
In 2007, ABS-CBN hired AGB Nielsen to supply TV ratings data for Mega Manila and other urban regions nationwide, with sample households called Panel Homes kept strictly confidential to prevent tampering or interference by media industry parties. Protecting the integrity of the TV ratings was crucial, as ABS-CBN relied on them to decide which programs to air, their timing, and target audiences.
ABS-CBN received reports that individuals reportedly hired by GMA contacted some Panel Homes to influence viewing data by persuading residents to watch GMA programs in exchange for monthly incentives of PHP 500 in cash and PHP 300 worth of groceries.
A GMA employee in Iloilo testified that the station manager ordered him and six others to find the Panel Homes and convince the residents to watch GMA programs in exchange for monetary incentives.
In a formal letter and radio interview, AGB Nielsen ’s General Manager, Maya Reforma, admitted that the Panel Homes had been tampered. ABS-CBN then aired program segments that carried Reforma’s statements.
GMA filed a complaint for damages before the Regional Trial Court (RTC), claiming that ABS-CBN deliberately twisted Reforma’s statements by declaring that GMA had manipulated the ratings. ABS-CBN filed counterclaims for damages.
The RTC dismissed GMA’s complaint, as well as ABS-CBN’s counterclaims. When the Court of Appeals (CA) upheld this decision, the matter was brought to the SC.

'HINDI PO TALAGA KAYO PIPIRMA'
Ito ang tugon ni dating Department of Finance (DOF) undersecretary Cielo Magno sa pahayag ni Sen. Robin Padilla na hindi siya pipirma sa ilalabas na report ng Senate Blue Ribbon Committee kung hindi ito pipirmahan ni Senate Minority Leader Sen. Alan Peter Cayetano.
Giit ni Magno, mga miyembro lang talaga ng Komite ang pipirma sa nasabing report kaugnay ng maanomalyang flood control projects.

Padilla said Minority Leader Alan Peter Cayetano asked the nine-member bloc not to sign the report, but noted that each member has the final say.
“Gusto mong pumirma edi purnima ka pero ako susunod ako kay Alan,” Padilla said. | @eimorpsantos

‘MARCOLETA VS MARCOLETA’
After drawing flak for suggesting that the Kalayaan Island Group (KIG) be given up, Sen. Rodante Marcoleta now appears to be contradicting himself, denying that he ever proposed conceding the territory to China.
Speaking during the Senate plenary session on Monday, one of the so-called “Tsina-tors” said he was merely trying “to reinforce the argument” on the territorial dispute between China and the Philippines.
“Hindi ko sinasabi na i-give up natin. I am only trying to reinforce the argument na hindi at imposible nating gawin sapagkat atin ang teritoryo. Pero sa tubig, hindi natin puwedeng itagos ang baselines dahil magkakasala tayo at lalabag po tayo sa UNCLOS (United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea) mismo,” Marcoleta said.

‘KAHIT KAILAN HINDI KO SINABI ‘YON [I-GIVE UP ANG KIG]’ - SEN. MARCOLETA
Muling iginiit ni Sen. Rodante Marcoleta na hindi umano niya sinabi na “i-give up” ng Pilipinas ang Kalayaan Island Group (KIG) na nasa Palawan.
"Hindi ko sinasabi na hindi atin 'yon [KIG]. Teritoryo na natin 'yon dahil occupied na po natin 'yon. Ngunit, ang pinag-uusapan lang po, tubig nila, hindi natin puwede i-connect doon sa ating exclusive economic zone," paliwanag ni Sen. Marcoleta
Matatandaan na sa Commission on Appointments (CA) hearing nitong Feb. 4, 2026, sinabi ng senador, “Ang gawin natin para madali, i-give up natin ang KIG then mako-coordinate na natin lahat.”

Not only ignorant about UNCLOS and international law (claims to territory is not same as EEZ, which refers to resources within maritime boundaries) but totally defeatist!!! This is unacceptable 🙃🤡👊👊👊
