Korina Sanchez ‘open’ to join Manny Villar’s television network

Veteran journalist and television host Korina Sanchez is not closing her doors for an opportunity to work with Manny Villar’s Advanced Media Broadcasting Station (AMBS).

Villar recently obtained the broadcasting frequencies previously assigned to ABS-CBN.

A report of Peph.ph quoted Korina saying: “Well, you know, I’m a free agent. All my doors are open.”

Korina said she is grateful to her producers for always trusting her program.

“And I owe that to Brightlight which is headed by Albee Benitez. I owe Albee Benitez a lot because ‘nung nagsara ang ABS-CBN, hindi ako naghintay nang matagal, nagkatrabaho na ulit ang team ko, at ako mismo. He trusted me. They don’t meddle in anything of my content. They trust me. I deliver. They’re happy with our output. And I’ve been renewed for a year,” Korina said.

Korina said that she is now bound legally to one network only despite being an organic talent of TV 5.

“So, if there’s an offer, why not?! I’d love to be working again with the people who I came to know as my family, as I was growing up in the industry. So, why not?,” she added.

Korina said that the media landscape has changed drastically.

“The landscape of media now has changed so abruptly. The change was so fast. Yung totoo ngayon, bukas hindi na totoo. Hindi ba? Kausap mo ngayon, iba na ang kausap mo bukas. Though it’s a little stressful, and at the same exciting. So, yeah… it’s an exciting time for the media, and especially for the creative people who have good ideas,” she added.
