Featured in GMA News TV’s Station ID are Jessica Soho, Mike Enriquez, Mel Tiangco, Arnold Clavio, Vicky Morales and Howie Severino.

“The credibility of the pillars of Serbisyong Totoo and the organization’s commitment to the truth has been communicated clearly, especially in the award-winning Panata campaign. In this SID, we showed another side of them — their sensitivity to the needs of the viewers,” shares GMA AVP/creative director for Creative Services (GNTV) Lots Topacio.

“In their daily grind, the pillars of GMA do not only deliver the news, they are actually exposed to the people out there. In dealing with people, they become aware of their needs. Now that we will have a whole channel dedicated to News and Public Affairs, the need for more news and information can be better served. Importante sa amin na alam ninyo. That’s the message GMA News wants to communicate through the pillars,” adds Topacio.
