The
issuance of a franchise is a make or break moment for the Abs-Cbn. But the
collated pieces of evidence against the issuance of a franchise are
overwhelming. They are from tax evasion, violation of the terms of its
franchise, issue of American citizenship, absconding government loans, selling
50% shares of Abs-Cbn to a US company in America contrary to the Constitution,
etcetera.
With
these violations of the law, the problem of the Abs-Cbn vis-à-vis of getting a
franchise cannot be solved if Gabby Lopez keeps displaying his nerve of steel,
if not by lying through his teeth.
So it
seems that almost all the owners of the Abs-Cbn already have one foot out of
the door and are simply just waiting for somebody in Congress to push their
buttons so that way they can step out completely from the broadcasting
business.
It’s
easy to say in hindsight and that every single soul of the Filipino people have
always been aware of how the Abs-Cbn looked down and despised PRRD and became
the drumbeater for the Yellows to oust him even before the ink could dry. You
get the sense that the Abs-Cbn is going to stab PRRD in the heart in the end.
The
scene in everyday news at Abs-Cbn was just nuclear, it was just very toxic, and
everybody was just very immersed in the kind of character assassination like it
was nothing and completely disrespecting him on a public level was beyond
insane. He was a name that was kind of thrown in the shadows by the Abs-Cbn
done with impunity. But it was a colossal mistake destined to crash and burn.
Nevertheless,
the question now is: who is so riddled with guilt after all? Right now, regret
is Gabby Lopez’s only companion. Indeed, people in a precarious moral position
shouldn't point out the failings of others.
For me,
it was a dream come true and for others, it was a lost fantasy that vanished
never to return.
