Jessica Soho resign as GMA News Vice President

GMA Network, Inc. announces the retirement of Jessica Soho after 30 long years of loyal, dedicated and outstanding service as an employee and First VP for News Programs.

Jessica has served the network well in various capacities as a news reporter up to 1988, production news manager (2000), acting news director (2002), VP for news (2004), VP for news programs (2008) up to her last promotion last year (2013) as First VP for news programs.

Under her leadership, GMA News became the leading and most credible broadcast news organization in the country with its premier newscast, 24 Oras ending competition’s ratings dominance shortly after it was launched in 2004.

Saksi also became an even stronger brand through the years and continues to dominate in its timeslot.

Jessica also helped launch and establish all the other daily news programs on both GMA and GMA News TV as primary news sources in their time slots.

“I am most proud of the fact that under my watch, the credibility of GMA News became even stronger. Filipinos watch us because they know we can be trusted to deliver accurate, objective and balanced reporting because we have no political agenda or biases and we have consistently proven that through administrations, past and present.

“We mean it when we say, walang kinikilingan. Walang pino-protektahan. Serbisyong Totoo lamang,” Jessica said.

Jessica is home-grown in GMA.

“I am a Kapuso through the core of my being. I have worked with only one network throughout my entire career because I truly believe in the network’s independence and professionalism,” she adds.

Although she is retiring from her news executive duties, Jessica stays on as a Kapuso talent as she continues to host her weekly-primetime top-rated and award-winning news magazine programs - Kapuso Mo, Jessica Soho (KMJS) on GMA and Brigada on GMA News TV as well as anchor her nightly-news program State of the Nation (SONA), also on GMA News TV.

KMJS and SONA recently helped win for GMA Network, Inc. its fourth George FosterPeabody award for its coverage of Typhoon Yolanda.

SONA won Silver Medal in the US International Film and TV Festival (USIFV) also for its coverage of Typhoon Yolanda.

Brigada was given the Gold Medal and for the first time for the network and the Philippines, the much-coveted One World Medal.

Jessica was also recently named Most Trusted News Presenter by Reader’s Digest for the fourth consecutive year

“I can never thank the network enough for everything it has given me and my family. I especially thank all my mentors, my bosses and cameramen in our old newsroom as well as my colleagues now, fellow managers, producers, reporters, talents and crewsfor the opportunity to lead them. It has been a great honor and privilege working with the best in the industry,” Jessica said.

“Although I am retired from my position, I will always be a proud member of GMA News and Public Affairs,” she adds.

Is Pet (Dog) Raffle Illegal?

I constantly see "dog raffle'' on my Facebook feed but I have never played even once. I actually bought my three dog pets on the Marketplace, Shih-Tzu, Pomeranian, and Maltese and these breeds of dogs are costly especially if they will come along with PCCI. The Philippine Canine Club, Inc. was organized on March 21, 1963, as a non-stock, non-profit service-oriented corporation for the purpose of promoting and encouraging the love for pure-bred dogs. Quality dogs from legit breeders are usually registered on PCCI. Of my three pets only my Pomeranian has PCCI which I bought for Ph20,000. Earlier, this morning I have seen a post on Facebook from an Animal Shelter in Bulacan, "Pawssion Project" opening up another sensitive topic about dogs being put into a raffle. The page highly condemns such act and highly encourage everyone to report posts that offer PET RAFFLES. Here is Pawsion Project's complete post regarding the issue: Opening up another “sensitive” topi...

I got a TikTok Viewer Job Offer from Skyrocket Studio Ph- Scam or Not?

Earlier today, I got a message on my Whatsapp and telling me to become a TikTok Viewer with an attractive salary and commission. The message says it's a part-time job and I can work from Home. Legit or not? So I ask the sender who he/she is and how did she manage to get my Whatsapp number. She told me she was from Skyrocket Studio Ph and she got my number from Whatsapp, Linkedin and/or Telegram. She's not sure actually where she got my number. Then I took to Google and search for the said company and saw a legit website: "We are a fresh, dynamic group of caffeine-fueled individuals inspired to deliver results through smart solutions. We’re an entrepreneurial bunch with expertise in creative technology, digital marketing, content & business strategy, web development, design, and social media." Then the Manager told me to install Telegram and this time I am not sure if I am chatting with two different people from Whatsapp and Telegram. The so-called manager ask me...
