ABS-CBN’s SONA Coverage, Watched by More Filipinos
Viewers preferred and trusted ABS-CBN’s “Sa Gitna ng Daang Matuwid: SONA 2013” as it rated five points higher than GMA’s “SONA 2013: A GMA News Special Soverage,” which only hit 9.4%.
The coverage’s live telecast on Studio 23, meanwhile, registered a national TV rating of 1.2%, edging out GMA News TV’s 0.8%.
Veteran broadcast journalist Ted Failon anchored the live coverage from the studio, with Lynda Jumilla and other ABS-CBN news reporters bringing the latest updates before and after the SONA straight from Batasan.
ABS-CBN’s other media platforms ANC and DZMM TeleRadyo also delivered live coverages for cable TV subscribers, DZMM Radyo Patrol 630 for radio listeners, and ABS-CBNNews.com, anc.yahoo.com, dzmm.com.ph, and ABS-CBN News’ Twitter acccounts for netizens.
A week before the ABS-CBN’s live coverage, flagship newscast “TV Patrol” aired a week-long series of special reports called “SONASerye” where the network’s veteran journalists explained the importance and history of the SONA, delved into President Aquino’s priority programs such as the public-private partnership projects, poverty reduction, national security, and the expectations on the SONA 2013.
I watched in ABS-CBN, it is most comprehensive and their graphics are very pleasing to the eyes. Abscbn delivers it in a more detailed and entertaining way. More ad loads also in abscbn as i observed the two.
As almost always, nanalo ang SONA coverage ng GMA sa NUTAM… GMA is big fan of NUTAM. This time imbes na Studio 23 ang TV5 ay kaharap ng GNTV. (Kantar ratings for TV5’s SONA covergae wala pa)
GMA pa din pagdating sa news and current affairs..
this is nothing but only kantar, ung survey na ABS CBN dn ung one and only na nakasubscribe, ung TV5 at GMA sa AGB naniniwala. just saying d fact..
losers kapokpok hahahaha as usual :)))))
mga kapokpok pasok :))))
wala kasing infographic sa gma.. abs at tv5 lang meron..
