"This is a big blow against press freedom in our country and deprived millions of Filipinos of new, entertainment and assistance!" Rodriguez said in a Viber message. ACT Teachers Representative France Castro, another co-author, said the vote only reflected the"determination" of President Rodrigo Duterte's government to silence dissenters.
Duterte, who counts a majority of House members as his allies, have an axe to grind against ABS-CBN and have repeatedly said its franchise – which expired last May 4 – will not be renewed. "The Duterte administration's determination to shut down ABS-CBN, the largest media network, shows how it uses a tyrannical rule to silence all its enemies, critics, and dissenters," Castro said.
Ang pulitikong walang tinatago at hindi sakim sa kapangyarihan hindi takot at hindi sinusupil ang kalayaan ng bansa, ng tao at ng media.
