A series of graphics on Facebook says that ABS-CBN Corporation's pay-per-view service is the reason Congress did not renew their franchise.
The post said:"[ABS-CBN's] use of free air wave frequency to get gain resulted to the disapproval of their request for franchise renewal in 2014 during [former presidentadministration.... But because they had issues with the law even a known political ally such as an Aquino failed to approve their renewal."
The pay-per-view service was one of Solicitor General Jose Calida's complaints against the network in his quo warranto petition, but this was addressed in a Senate hearing on February 24.to tackle the bills seeking to renew the network's franchise and accused them of unfair election coverage in 2010 and 2016.
Cayetano said in February that discussing the franchise renewal would be"tedious, contentious, and it [would threaten] to drain the momentum that has allowed the 18th Congress to accomplish so much" but did not expound on the network's violations that had to be discussed.on the franchise on March 10, when Telecommunications Commissioner Gamaliel Cordoba said they would"most likely" grant ABS-CBN the provisional authority to operate beyond May 4.
