philippine tv giants exploiting the public

[ggierran]

i dont watch the local programs except sometimes for the news..
but i decide what i watch.. and i dont use the tv as often now..

we all have a choice

this is business so there is nothing we can do. watch it or leave it. they dont force us to watch but some people doesnt have a choice kasi nga they cant afford to subscribe a cable.

pero may point lang is that, people are kind of happy when they can watch TV after a busy day of work. its like rewarding urself to relax and enjoy a bit. wats the purpose of working, to earn to diba, wats the purpose of the earnings? to spend diba? life is not complicated if we wont make things complicated.

just expressing my point. anyhow, i love discovery channel, national geographic, and music video channels.

In u.s. Tv, 30 mins tv runtime is cmposed of 23 minutes of the show and 7 mins ads. I asked my frend who watches 'darna' on gma7 to observed the total runtime. She said that its more or less 45 minutes for the whole show. I know that phil. Tv follows u.s. Standards, if such is true, 23 mins darna and 22 mins adds. Wow! Parang over ata? Say ur watching 4hrs of gma7 or abs, just imagine the amount of electricity wasted for watching the ads. its big. and people are nt even aware of it. and im even bothered why local news like 24oras would eat 90 minutes of air time. abs vs gma? i dnt care. i love discovery, axn, bbc. but nt everyone can avail of cable. i just hope that these tv giants take time in reevaluating how exactly to be of service. its nt a reason that public hav to watch hours of ads just to keep networks to produce shows. may mga charity work nga sila, pero knti lang yun sa nakukuha ng artista. kaya yang mga shows na may txt txt para manalo yung isang candidate, di dpat yan sa bansa natin.

..lolx..

..its how business works..though, kapoy ug kas kuryente..pero, kung huna-hunaon nimo ang gibayaran nimo sa bill sa imong cable ug kuryente mas dako pa gale kaysa ga tag-iya ug tv wa na way cable..so ayaw complain na wasted ug maau ang kuryente nila, well in fact ikaw sad kay ga consume og dako na kuryente..

..ako lang point, you are not the right person to complain about this matter, especially on the energy wasted..only those people na walay cable ang dapat mo complain..

you have the choice to turn off your TV if you don't like what's being aired or if you don't like watching those advertisements, in that way you can save electricity...or if you want actions to be done then call the network and voice out all your sentiments...

those times panahon pa ni tanya garcia, ok naman ang sched ng gma7. eventually, i got tired of watching very long local news kaya bumili me ng dream, it was expensive pa dati, but worth it. sa akin lang, these networks shouldnt announced timeslots when they cant even follow it. much better pa daw abs, konti lang delay, nt lyk gma7, over 30 minutes. we do have choices, di ko naman ko cnabi na wla. but i just hope na marealize din ng mga tv network na sobra na.
