ANC unveils new studio in Rockwell

MANILA, Philippines -ANC, the ABS-CBN News Channel, is now formally in the heart of the country’s central business district with the blessing of its new studio at the Rockwell Center in Makati City last Jan. 13.

ABS-CBN chairman Eugenio Lopez III, ABS-CBN president and CEO Carlo Katigbak, ABS-CBN Integrated News and Current Affairs head Ging Reyes and ANC COO Cilette Liboro-Co led the launch of the new state-of-the-art facility, which is currently the base of programs Mornings@ANC and Headstart with Karen Davila, with more shows expected to use the studio soon.

Katigbak said that the studio enhances the gathering and delivery of news by being near the central business district. 

“This is part of our commitment to stay close to decision-makers, the business leaders, the policy makers and opinion shakers of the community. We want ANC to be the go-to channel for people who want to know what big decisions are going to be made in business or policies in the country,” he said.

Reyes added that the new studio is part of the country’s first 24-hour global news channel’s efforts to remain as the gold standard among news channels in the country. 

“This studio is an essential component in ANC’s commitment to strengthen our business news equity apart from our political coverage. Eventually, the site will be a satellite newsroom and feed point to supplement the main ABS-CBN headquarters in Quezon City,” she said. 

The new studio is just one of the developments to mark ANC’s 20th anniversary this year. The channel recently had its re-launch last October 2015, introducing a new logo and a unified look that highlights ANC’s expertise in presenting a wide range of stories from politics, business and economy to lifestyle and entertainment. It also unveiled a retooled AM morning grid featuring a line-up of shows that still carries ANC’s trademark quality news and in-depth analysis.
