Legarda explains why she didn’t participate in ABSCBNfranchise vote

MANILA--Deputy Speaker and Antique lone district Rep. Loren Legarda on Friday sought to clear up confusion regarding why she didn't vote in ABS-CBN's application for a fresh franchise in the House of Representatives.

"My authorship of House Bill No. 6293 speaks for itself," she said, referring to a bill she filed seeking a 25-year broadcast franchise for the media network after it expired on May 4. "While I do not receive any monetary compensation as Host of the show, I deem it appropriate to refrain from participating in view of any potential conflict of interest, whether directly or indirectly, in so promoting my advocacy through this project," she said.

No explanation would suffice.

xp3ctat0r Ingrata, trapo ka na rin pala..

Anong silbi mo sa usaping toh? Nada.

Oh 😳 which means those reps holding on to shares of stocks of ABS-CBN or any of its subsidiaries (investors directly or indirectly) should have inhibited❓- Atty. YesYesYo13 please shed some light.

Define hypocrite in one word.... LOREN

You’re such a disappointment!

Tsss...Playing safe🙄

Buti pa si Ate Vi. Si ate Vi ang tunay na Darna!

No need to explain Ms. Legarda People knows your true color

'Sa precinto kayo magpaliwanag'

loren_legarda is a political prostitute.

tse!

Because you idiot is a freakin’ COWARD! 😡

ArzzielMarcena Balím Ing!

dahon ka

Ambot sa imo.

Yes or No? That’s is it!

Reasons pa more! 💩💩💩

Magpapaliwanag pa, eh nakita na yun totoong kulay nya...

Traitor nothing else

Another enabler and a very good political butterfly 🦋

You ma’m will never get Covid, excellent “hand washing” skills

Ngeee... siya gani author. ('My authorship of House Bill No. 6293 speaks for itself,' she said, referring to a bill she filed seeking a 25-year broadcast franchise for the media network after it expired on May 4.) Di mobasa ha... tsk tsk...

Isa kang carinderia na bukas sa lahat ng kakain at titikim, basta kung sino ang nakapwesto

Larawan ka na ng kasaysayan Hulyo diyes hindi hindi malilimutan....

It's hilarious a lot of people are disappointed with Loren Legarda. Really, only now? This lady has always been a political prostitute.

Just shut up and don’t justify ur stand

Wala kang utang na loob...will not vote u anymore...trapo!

Loren.. in issues like this, it is as simple as a yes or no. Analogy: you cannot be kinda pregnant. What a disappointment you are.

wag na po no need !!!*

No need to explain Mam..dapat nagvote kaparin. Sa tingin ko playing safe ka here. JustSaying

Ages ago when Loren first ran for govt office, her contemporaries Angelique Lazo and Corina Sanchez were asked whether they‘d do the same, Angelique and Corina answered they do not believe that govt office is the way for a journalist. Admireable ladies are Angelique and Corina.

Iwas - Pusoy lang yan day!! dami pang tsetse buretse!!

Boooo!!! Hugas kamay lang ang peg mo ate 😜😜😜

Political Butterfly since Erap days 🤣

Conflict of interest my ass!

How dare she cite “conflict of interest” when she railroaded that bill to exclusively benefit her son’s solar power business?

I don't know if the word 'Hypocrite' could describe well.

Bakit nyo pa binibgyan pansin yang walang kwentang tao. Let her fade into oblivion!

Loren has turned into a trapo. Very trapo. She's no longer the Loren admired by millions.

You didn't do your job.

ABS CBN WAS A GIANT OF A NETWORK... sadly, UNlike any other company was only running because of BORROWED franchise. Years of POLITICKING, TAX evasion and BULLYING caught up with it. THEY BUILT AN EMPIRE ON TOP OF QUICKSAND. THEY DID THIS TO THEMSELVES.

Too late, trapo.

Nanindigan ka umpisa sana tinodo mo na gang huli!!! Pano ka pa pagkatiwalaan nyn kun wala ka naman palabra de honor 🐸

My god,, from Antique pa nmn aq,,, tpos ganito🙄🙄🙄

Muka mo legarda mag Isa ka sa 2022 gag

I used to like her before, but since she entered politics, her true colors showed. Ambisyosa, gagawin ang lahat makuha, lang ang gusto.

Respect her decision!

tandaan mo po n abs ang ngbigay sayo ng karera sa tv at nging daan mo pra mkilala at nging politiko k same goe to apc kung d dhil sa abs wlang companero rene cayetano n ngbigay daan sa sa politika

Play safe akala mo 'di alam ng madla na tuta siya.

Hindi na kita iboboto kasama ng pamilya kung tatakbo kang senator

Palusot girl?

Tara, Tena sana bumoto ka! 🤮🤮🤮

Trapo

Nagpapahatid ng pagbati sa inyo ABSCBNNews

Gaga. Nakaka-disappoint ka.

We will un-remember you, for a million years.

Katotohanan at prinsipyo ang pinag uusapan at importante dito maam! After ng hearing as in wala kang nakuhang desisyon o impormasyon na dapat mung ipaglaban? Anu yun? Di baleng mabaliktad ang katotohanan basta plantsado lang ang yung pangalan?

Kwento mo sa uod, miss political butterfly.

dun sa presinto

What a shit!

pakyu!

Shame on u .. kakahiya ka

You were never there without abscbn goodluckpilipinas

Kasi she needs alcohol 90% solution. Baka daw madumi yung computer makes pagbibotohan.

Shame on you Loren Legarda! Surely, you will reap what you sow!

Duwag!

Kapalmuks! Walang utang na loob!

Teka bakit kay Digong sinisisi to. Panahon pa ni Noynoy nireject na franchise renewal. 2014 mga ungas

The solution is for the greater majority to get organised and united; theoretically if well - meaning people could do this, the greater majority could topple those rich politicians and oligarchs in every election- this is the only solution if we want meaningful change 😊

Of all people! Trapo! Basura!

Thank you Cong. Vilma Santos for showing some balls.

A person choosing neutrality and silence only favors the oppressor.

The “Inside” Story

your SILENCE is so loud mem.

Choosing the headline photo speaks a lot about the inner sentiment.

Malakas ang kotob ko na may pressure sa botohan ng ABSCBN franchise. Si Alfredo Garbin at Violago na pro-abs biglang nagbago ang isip sa last minute.Were they threatened?

And this makes a lot of sense instead of voting with emotions in place. Kudos senator

Bakit si Paolo Duterte at Eric Yap na co-authored a bill nakaboto rin

Is it all because of Dayaw? Dayaw forced her not to vote? Apparently she ain't the only one.

Isa kang buhay na patotoo sa pagiging ingrata! D ka naging senador dahil sa fame na binigay sau ng network, d ka man lang naawa sa mga taong naka trabaho mo behind the camera. Mapapakain ba ng conflict of interest ang pamilya nila?

Goodbye to your political career The people will no longet vote for you.

Its all personal interes to the expense of filipino people.

Pero kasama ang pangalan mo sa listahan na bumoto against the renewal. loren_legarda

When you have the power to vote and choose not to. Make a stand and stick with it.

Booooo. Loren Legarda! 👎👎👎👎👎

Legarda: Because I am a political butterfly.

you casted your vote.. maliwanag pa sa sikat ng araw ang pag YES mo to deny the franchise renewal..now, let us hold you accountable for your decision to kill the station and leave 11,000+ people jobless in the middle of a PANDEMIC. Kahuluya ka!

Trapo!

Kahit kailan wala talagang tamang aasahan sayo!

She probably voted no to renewal because her son was given a 25 year franchise for his solar power project.

Sa ginawa niyo tingin niyo mapapatawad pa nmin kayo ano ganon ganon lng un..ano akala niyo madali lng mag move on..hindi po madali ang mag move on lalot naging importante samin amg abs😭😭😭kung alam niyo lng ilang beses kaming umiyak 😭😭😭

its politics

Silence = Complicity

What can you expect with someone who is into old and rich men -Leviste then Angara? Sino naman ngayon? COMELEC’s fault why she was allowed to run, she wasn’t able to establish residence, she just rented a resort and listed as her residence.

ee mariposa naman yan ee kung san makadapo na makikinabang sya at mamumukadkad dun sya

Alamin mo kung makano ibinayad sa kanila 😏

No amount of explanation that will justify Ur Cowardice! Khit harangan kapa ng kidlat kung tlagang hangad mo na tulungan ang Kababayan at Mismo istasyon n nagbgay syo ng Pangalan BOBOTO KA! kya wag kame di lahat ng pilipino Tanga!

Blah blah blah excuses excuses

Kita mo naman na pinepersonal ang attack sa network. The playing field wasn't fair at all. Your voice should have been counted to add to those who wanted the network renewed.

Wala kaming paki.

Silence when you have the capacity to speak is injustice, pakta kah!

Sa presinto ka magpaliwanag...

Nothing to explain isa ka ring tra........po KapamilyaForever

Pwe

She wasnt offered the payolas.

kwento mo sa pagong

Enabler. Last term mo na yan. Ingrata!

We know already your color. No need to explain.

Booooooo booooooo

She’s just actually joking...

Malapit na national election te. Playing safe lang tayo te ok?

Sitting on the fence merely supports the status quo. No rationalizing needed.

Because saving herself is more important than saving abs-cbn 💔💚💙

Weeh!

I remember her way back, people called her political proste

because she knows.. abs is deep shit. 💭👀😴

Oportunista. Kung saan may malaking pakinabang, dun sya. Integrity? Zilch. She doesn't even know the meaning of the word.

Classic example of how power and politics are corrupting people. Integrity doesn’t mean anything.

yeah sure,

Frequent handwashing at its finest😆

playing safe!

Noted.

Kung hindi dahil sa abs cbn you are nobody. Huwag talikuran ang isang mahalagang na bumuo ng pagkatao mo. Wala kang utang na loob. Lumabas din kulay mo.

You disappointed us Loren. 💔

Legarda explained herself well

✅Eugenio Lopez III not 100% Filipino ✅Selling PDR to foreigners ✅No arbitration proceedings submitted to acqiuire the company back ✅Frequency is free but they are selling shows thru pay per from the black box without any permission from NTC

Saan ka ba nakilala madam di ba newscaster host ng abscbn? Ang kasabihang, ang hindi marunong lumingon sa pinanggalingan ay...!

Conflict of interest is a lame excuse. No such thing in this case.

I suggest all Kapamilya stars and staff take it to the next election and ikampanya niyo to the max ang mga kalaban ng mga 'nambarubal' (quoting cocomartin_ph) sa inyo. kapamilyastarsneverforget

Selfish act. She protected her own interests over the interests of 11k employees & their families.

Kkhiya ka.

😷

Expected the unexpected, so that’s is, panaoanahin lang iyan and the right time will come

Ipokritang ganid ka! loren_legarda

Uulitin ko. If you remain silent or worst sides with oppression you are an enabler. Bakit ka naging Trapo?

Bakit naka vote si cong sol aragones ? Duwag ka legarda!

Walang utang n loob!

Believe it or leave it!! Solve your financial problems, stop living from paycheck to paycheck come make money from home... Stay at home and make money online, Receive $6,300 within 5 days (1) No scam, Type INFO and i will send you all the details..... Ask me (how)

It's the Corona virus. Frequent handwashing is recommended. 😅

Silence supports the oppressors.

'wag ka mag-explain. Do you think people will accept it? You failed the very people you represent. Shame on you.

😩

If only MiriamDefensor was alive, she would say 'Whaaaaaa'!!!

'Member' in the Hse Rules who, being a Bill author & ergo a member of the referred committee, can only refer, by the Rule's context & general intent, to a NON-Ex Officio member. She could've sought House clarification if she would've wished to vote as her Bill indicated.

Wag kana mag explain. Tunalikod ka sa pagkakataon para tumayo at manindigan para sa abs-cbn, press freedom and 11k workers. Ingrata ka sa industriyang pinangalingan mo!

Move forward na it’s done deal finished the end

Kahit d k bumoto bash pa rin abutin m.Dpat ung tapang m mag salita sana ganun k din k tapang s 11 n bomoto pra a franchise ng network.

Alam na namin po kung bakit

playing safe. Duwag!

Political butterfly. Matagal nang walang silbi.

i don’t wanna know your explaination because ur action already speak for itself! hope u all can sleep well.. really politics is too dirty that it can take away even ur conscience!

Simple lang.. pansariling interes lang ang pinaglalaban ng karamihan..

We don't mind... For sure you'll vote yes.

'Yung choice ng photo. Alam niyong ikakainis niya 'yan 🤭

Opportunista. Wala ka naman naitulong

Subong mo sa pagong

Legarda, Alfred Vargas, isama pa si Robin Padilla. Inaruga ng kapamilya network, sumikat, at pagkatapos traidor lang nila ang pamilyang nagpasikat sa kanila, kung hindi dahil sa ABSCBN wala sila ngayon sa kinalalagyan nila ngayon.

Ok... youre out. Isa kang impostor Loren. Hindi kn makakabalik sa pukitika

Sugapa kasi mga kasamahan mo dun....

Naguluhan si mam

Sana wala kang konsensya na may nawalan ng trabho dhil sa ginawa ninyo tutal ngyari na bigyan ninyo ng trabho ung mga nawalan ng. Load ung mga taong d affort maka pag internet dhil wlang pang load. Masyado kau perpekto

Wala kme pake sa ssbhin mo!!!

Mga kaibigan mo iniwan la sa eri ,, ABSCBN

kaya alam niyo ABSCBN pagbalik niyo kong sino yung totoo sa inyo o nagpapanggap manggagamit ,

Galit na galit tatay ko sa ugali mo.. Kung nabubuhay pa yun baka namura ka na nya.. Ako na lang: Leche ka...

Save your explanations. No gray areas. It’s only black and white. You chose black, period!

Two face legarda . Think where you came from . You’re a shame

Magbasa po kayo. She authored the franchise bill for the renewal of the abs-cbn and according to the policy, a member who authored the bill shall have no vote to the committee. Kainis! ForeverKapamilya

Engrata numero uno! User!!

Balasubas ka Madam.

whatAshame

RememberTheName verdict on Halalan2022

In time of need you didn't lendAhand to your formerNetwork ABSCBN so Unbelievable

appalling

Yung totoo. May ayuda noh!?

Do you hear that. They are laughing at her.

Always playing safe and opportunistic.

Your name is noted !!!

A bill that propose to grant renewal/extend franchise is totally different/exact opposite of the bill that upended the franchise. Secondly what business or whose interest would compete w/or get in conflict w/ favorable vote? Solar grant? TV career? Filipinos?

Di nga?

Crazy Btch

Xanderlicios

Her vote would not have mattered in giving ABSCBNfranchise bec of huge gap but it would still send a message that she's an ally and would stand for press freedom and truth.

Lubos lubosin mo na yang pusisyun mo,, I'm sure na laglag kna sa butuhan

Hnd na kailangan,, mulat na kmi sa katutuhanan,, walang utang na luob

So how are your solar panels?

Tangina ka.

coz Loren, who used to be working at abs-cbn, knows the real score...

Baliw!

sabihin mo tota ka 😂😂😂😂

Iba ka din anu hugas kamay ka anu takot ka din kc

Ayan mag lalabasan na mga nag mamalinis. Makikita niyo ilang araw mula ngayon mga mag huhugas kamay na mga ‘yan.

Kwento mo s pagong...

Kase TRAPO KA. YUNG MGA BUMOTO BIASED KAY DUTERTE IKAW SANA BIASED KA DAPAT SA TAONG BAYAN. KAKAHIYA KA.

Once again isa kang linta sa pulitika hayup ka

Magiging dosehan un hinde onsehan

Simple, walang dignidad. loren_legarda

Heh! Wag ka na magpaliwanag!

Tama lang ang ginawa ng taong may kahihiyan sa sarili. Ano na lang sasabihin may conflict of interest? Magisip naman. Tsaka sa nagsabing di na sya mananalo sa Antique... DAW PIHO. Taga Antique ka haw?

Wag ka ng mag explain. Tapos na rin ang career mo.

Play safe 😔

Kinakahiya ka ng mga antiqueno!!!

Basura ka....

We understand that you need to please the President.

Hindi na kylangan ang paliwanag mo, buset!!

Sana naman bago pa nangyari toh nagsabi ka na sa madlang people na: I cannot vote kasi blah blah blah.

Loren, u seriously mess this one up BIG time!

People of Antique, I Wish you will never vote for her Again.

Ito yung pagkatapos mo'ng pakainin tutukain ka rin.

dami iyakin. hahahahaha tama na iyak. talo na kayo. tila mga asong hindi pinapakain. hahahahaha

STFU!

Kahit kailan hugas kamay tong Tao na to.

lets understand legarda guyths haha baka kasi hanggang ngayon naghahanap pa rin ebedsya nyang nanalo siya sa 2004 elections against noliboy 🤣

Isa ka pa...

Plastic ka!

Malinaw na hinde napaghandaan at hinde naipagtanggol ng 'frontliners' ng ABS-CBN ang mga tanong nila congressmen Marcoleta, Mike Defensor, Remulla at Barzaga..Sila sisihin nu. Stop associating PressFreedom to defend their incompetence! move on na.

Dayaw was on ANC right after voting. Didn't watch anymore.

It will not change a thing anyway. 70 vs 11. Still you could have been present.

Tama n kyo mga trapo! Burahin n kyo sa next halalan!

You are a FAKE!!!

Nag explain kapa? Para saan yan!! Hugas kamay!!! 2022 di kana ma. Nanalo. Sa. Antique!!!! 👎👎👎

Sana mahimbing tulog nya.

So ano nga uli pahayag mo loren_legarda in support of abs

11 na naman?

But, why was her name on the list who votes against the renewal?

Vocal advocates of ABSCBNFranchiseRenewal like Rep. Zarate never had a reservation of voting in favor of the embattled network. I guess this is Rep. Legarda’s way of saying “I have allegiance towards ABS-CBN, but I also have a face to save”. Yikes!

Kahit bumoto pa yan, TALO pa din! Haha

those who don't RESPECT the graft laws in the Philippines will never understand your principles Congw. loren_legarda they wish death and accuse you of evil things while canonizing lito_atienza and SenGracePOE ... as a former empl urself it's a tough decision👏

E bakit si Sol Aragones bumoto?

Legarda made the right call. Not only she's constrained by the house rules, there's a potential conflict of interest. Even then her vote wouldn't have mattered. She gains my respect.

Huwag na mag explain tapos na ei hindi na need yan..

Wag mo kaming maarti article at maresolution-resolution jan! Di naman kailangan ang paliwanag mo, malinaw sa amin na doble kara ka!

Point taken. Apology accepted. Still not getting my support. Duterte enabler. Still part of the network’s downfall.

I have no respect for this woman at all. The veteran political butterfly who has no shame. I hate her.

bwesit ka legarda wala kng utang na loob hayop ka...

Playing safe

Fucking this legarda...twitter account nya, ay ckose for comments. Duwag! Ibig sabihin takot at alam nya na she is nor the good ones!

Hugas kamay k p.. Jan k magaling sarili mong kapamilya hindi mo kyang ipaglaban,, kaya k nsa pulitika kasi nakilala k bilang isang journalist s abscbn.. Buti p si cong caloy makatao..tunay n makabayan..

Kala nila na dahil naipa shut down nila ang abs cbn, tapos na sila sa amin. No...the game has just begun!

Naku legarda wag kami dbah dhil dyan sa solar ng anak mo alam na din nmin yan good luck na lng sa 2022 ha

It. would. not. have. mattered.

This is hypocritical
