PRESS STATEMENT
From: Cheche Lazaro
The Probe Team
I have avoided further statements to media on the censorship of The Probe Team episode on the undeclared assets of Pagcor chair Efraim Genuino.
It was my hope that the furor created by this one incident in 15 years of partnership would be allowed to die down and that the scheduled parting of ways would be cordial.
Unfortunately, the November 3 press statement of GMA Channel 7 makes its case at the expense of the reputation of The Probe Team. GMA Channel 7 has therefore left me …

Overseas Filipinos will now be having a choice in what Philippine-sourced television programs to watch. GMA 7‘s yet unnamed international channel will be providing content in the West Coast (US) by January 2005 and later, in all areas where there are large concentrations of Filipinos.
ABS-CBN‘s The Filipino Channel is currently the only international Filipino channel.
GMA 7 will also be improving its regional centers in the key areas outside Metro Manila.

Samantala, sabay nang pagpasok ni Phoemela sa The Buzz ang pagri-resign naman ni Ricky Lo from the same show. Wala naman sigurong kinalaman ang pagkakadagdag ni Phoemela sa show sa pagri-resign ni Ricky. [source]

Dito magki-Christmas si G Tongi. Kahit matapos na ang shooting niya sa Enteng Kabisote: Okay Ka Fairy Ko…The Legend.
Hindi muna siya babalik sa Amerika at gustong tumulong sa promotion ng movie at type niyang maki-join sa saya ng Metro Manila Film Festival kung saan entry ng OctoArts Films at M-Zet Films ang nasabing pelikula. Gusto nitong sumakay sa karosa sa Parade of Stars at kumaway sa tao.
Mother-in-law ni Enteng (Vic Sotto) ang role ni G. Siya si Ina Magenta na dating ginagampanan ni Charito Solis sa TV version ng Okay …
