Aktress Jennylyn Mercado naglabas ng kanyang reaskyon sa Pagbasura ng ABS CBN Franchise 'Panahon ng walang hustisya!'

Ilan sa mga artista na nagsalita matapos hindi bigyan ng kongreso ang ABS-CBN ng prangkisa ay si Kapuso Actress Jennylyn Mercado.

Binanatan ni Mercado ang mga kababayan natin na natutuwa sa sinapit ng Kapamilya network.

"Sa mga taong tuwang tuwa sa mga pangyayari, huwag niyo sana danasin ang lumuha din at mawalan… Hindi ba tinuruan tayo ng ating mga magulang na maging makatao sa kapwa? Rejoicing because of other people’s sorrow is not only wrong, but inhumane 'You are crue', " boladas ni Mercado.

May mga kababayan tayo na rumesbak sa mga patutsada ng aktres. Buwelta naman ni Mercado, handa daw siyang mabatikos para sa kanyang freedom of speech.

"To be netural or silent in times of injustice is injustice. If being 'bashed' is a small price to pay for practicing my right to freedom of speech, then I am fine with it," kuda pa ni Mercado.

Noong nakaraang linggo ay hindi pinayagan ng mga mamababatas na mabigyan ng prangkisa ang ABS-CBN dahil sa mga isyung bumabalot sa media giant. Mula sa labor practices, tax avoidance scheme hanggang sa dual citizenship ng chairman emeritus nito na si Gabby Lopez III.

“It is what it is — a denial of a privilege granted by the State because the applicant was seen as undeserving of the grant of a legislative franchise. By no means can this franchise application be related to press freedom. If it were so, then all applicants for legislative franchises covering mass media could simply claim such freedom and force the hand of this Committee each time', It is what it is — a denial of a privilege granted by the State because the applicant was seen as undeserving of the grant of a legislative franchise. By no means can this franchise application be related to press freedom. If it were so, then all applicants for legislative franchises covering mass media could simply claim such freedom and force the hand of this Committee each time',  Such a scenario is totally inconsistent with the nature of legislative franchises as a mere privilege and never a matter of right.  Wherefore, in view of the foregoing, the technical working group respectfully recommends the DENIAL of the franchise application of ABS CBN Corporation,” sabi sa report ng Technical Working Group’s (TWG) Committee ng Kongreso.
