An Open Letter From Previous Employees Who Were Victims Of ABS-CBN's Injustice And Media Blackout

There is no doubt about it, Thinking Pinoy has successfully become the voice of the Filipinos who aren't able to voice out against the mainstream media and the powerful people.

An open letter from previous workers of ABS-CBN to President Duterte has been posted by Thinking Pinoy. Needless to say, netizens helped by sharing the story until it hopefully reaches the proper channel for it.

The letter was from the previous technical crews of ABS-CBN. They consist of C.C.U (Camera Control Unit), VTR Men, Cameramen, Audiomen, Lightmen at Drivers that worked for ABS-CBN but were all removed from their work duting the last quarter of 2010.

Kami po ay dating mga Technical Crew na binubuo ng mga sumusunod: C.C.U (Camera Control Unit), VTR Men, Cameramen, Audiomen, Lightmen at Drivers ng Broadcasting Network na ABS-CBN na pag-aari ni Mr. Eugenio “Geny” Lopez Jr, na sa ngayon po ay nasa pamamahala ni Mr. Eugenio Gabriel “Gabby” Lopez III, na humihingi nang katarungan sa kadahilanang kami ay tinanggal noong last quarter ng taong 2010, sa panahon nang bagong halal na Presidente ng Pilipinas na si Benigno Simeon “Noynoy” Aquino III.

According to the letter, the members tried to fight for right to become regular employees but the response of the network was to remove them all.

Amin pong nilaban ang aming karapatan para maging Regular na Empleyado at makamit ang mga benipisyong nararapat ayon sa batas. Ang naging tugon po ng ABS-CBN ay kami ay pagtatanggalin.a

The employees are asking for help because according to them the network is making sure there is a news blackout when it comes to injustice committed by the network like this.

Tatay Digong, batid po naming lahat ang pagsugpo niyo sa Contractualization sa lahat ng Kumpanya, ang epekto po nito sa mga Maralitang Manggagawa ngunit akalain niyo po ba na ultimong sa Broadcasting Network ay mas talamak ang “ENDO”, malayang pamamahayag para sa daw sa masa pero News Blackout pagdating sa Karapatan ng Manggagawa nila.

The workers also left their case number for proof.

 Ang amin pong kaso na 14 Years na po ay ABS-CBN CORPORATION VS. JOURNALIE PAYONAN et al. Case No: 202495, 202497 2nd Division.
