Matters of Fact - May 5, 2021 - a podcast by ANC Podcast

In today's episode, Christian Esguerra speaks with veteran journalists as today marks the first year since ABS-CBN was shut down as promised by President Rodrigo Duterte by the National Telecommunications Commission. Afterwards, the House Committee refused to give ABS-CBN a new broadcast franchise upon the instigation of President Duterte. This move led to thousands of employees to lose jobs. How has this affected the way we do journalism in the Philippines, not just ABS-CBN?

He also tackles the country's foreign policy on the West Philippine Sea as the country's top diplomat apologizes to his Chinese counterpart over his expletive-laden tweet against China.
