MANILA, Philippines - Jessica Soho was named Reader’s Digest’s Most Trusted News Presenter for the second year in a row, in a prestigious ceremony held recently at the Genting Club in Resorts World Manila Hotel in Pasay City.
Jessica is GMA Network’s VP for News Programs and is widely regarded as the most awarded broadcast journalist in the country. Her list of awards includes the highly prestigious George Foster Peabody Award, which is considered the Oscars of broadcast journalism.
Earning for her the esteemed recognition as Most Trusted News Presenter for the second year in a row is GMA News TV’s flagship program, State of the Nation With Jessica Soho. Airing at 9 p.m. weeknights, SONA provides viewers with more than just a rundown of the day’s top stories — it presents news, investigative reports, full-length exclusive interviews and ends with an insightful editorial.
“This serves as reminder of the great responsibility entrusted to us in media,” says Jessica.
Aside from SONA, Jessica is also the host of the top-rating Saturday primetime magazine program Kapuso Mo, Jessica Soho and the modern spin-off to the highly popular news magazine show in the ’90s — Brigada ni Jessica Soho on GMA News TV.
Now on its 14th year in the Asia Pacific region, the Reader’s Digest Trusted Brand serves as a barometer in identifying consumer preferences and brand appeal of products in various categories.
