Doris Bigornia criticized over alleged foul treatment of provincial reporters
MANILA, Philippines – ABS-CBN reporter Doris Bigornia allegedly threatened to hit GMA News Mindanao staff for asking her to move during a live coverage.
Reporter John Paul Seniel claimed that Bigornia allegedly threatened to hit their DMNG engineer Al Lim Ramz.
Addressing Bigornia, Seniel said Ramz “politely told you to excuse yourself from our camera since you became an eye sore to my live report.”
He recounted that “Mr. Bong Go and I were on cam, but you (Bigornia) immediately scolded him (Ramz) and even told him ‘sapakin kita.’”
Seniel expressed his dismay on how Bigornia has shown disrespect to the staff.
“Nakakabahala ang inasta niyo,” he continued. “Regional media kami, oo, pero kahit ihilera ka sa amin dito sa region, namumukod tangi kami sa rehiyon namin dahil rehiyon namin ito.”
“Kahit sa rehiyon namin, hindi kami pa star, we work with humility and authority,” he added.
In the end, Seniel noted that they may be from competing networks but told Bigornia that “we are still Filipinos and we should respect each other sa kung anumang trabaho meron tayo.”
“Mindanaoans like my team (MELCHOR, JP, ALLAN) lighted a candle of good reportage and everybody follows,” he concluded.
