GMA 7 vs. ABS-CBN 2
NEWS AND CURRENT AFFAIRS COVERAGE
The coverage last night on the Batasan Complex Bombing, which resulted to the death of Basilan Representative Wahab Akbar and a driver of a Party-List Representative clearly shows the difference between GMA 7 and ABS-CBN 2. While Channel 2 was able to show a very clear and vivid video footage of scene that clearly cover the events, the inferior GMA Channel 7 technology show only on national television(primetime) a blurred and useless video that I suppose is taken by a cellphone camera and boastfully marked it with "through 3G network". The video was so damn blurred that make it useless and iritating to the eye of the viewing public. Did GMA executive like it? Oh, my advise to GMA is to get back to the drawing board and stop claiming the top spot in news and media affairs rankings.
On the next coverage, GMA could only manage to show 1 still photo of a bombing victim and repeatedly zoom in and out while their reporter are delivering a pure audio report. Worst, because the said picture is worst than an amateur photo, it is not crisp and clear and the noise in the picture was so damn too many, I think its a camera phone again with resolution that I think is below the 2 megapixels and the lack of light contributed to its quality. I'm telling myself, is this a television network? or an ordinary radio station? The year is 2007 and this (GMA) television network could only manage is an audio report? Oh my Gosh! wheres the advertisement money for you to pay people and obtain the right television technology! Common, lay people today even own a camera, a digital one and majority of ordinary folks own a camera phone.
Thats not all, GMA's sister station, QTV also reported through audio and when they interviewed the house speaker, the audio communication was so poor, that the house speaker always complained that he could not hear the anchor of the news program. They could not even delivered the video footage, worst, they could not provide good audio quality. What a jurassic age technology this Television Network had? Then outrightly claimed that they have the best media outfit? What a shame! Indeed!
Im not an ABS-CBN fun and Im not into the network war. But having an interest in national events, I was so disappointed by the news channels' (GMA) coverage. They better of stop claiming the best and number 1.
Correct me if I'm wrong folks!!!!!!
