COMPARING ANC AND GMA NEWS TV! WHO'S BETTER?

TV networks used to devote less airtime to their news and public affairs programs because they generally do not generate enough advertising income to support the huge expense required by broadcast journalism. Times have changed. ABS-CBN was the first to open a news channel with its ABS-CBN News Channel (ANC), formerly known as Sarimanok News Channel.

Last month, TV5 and GMA-7 decided to challenge the dominance of the 15-year-old ANC. On Feb. 21, The Kapatid Network launched Aksyon TV on UHF Channel 41 while the Kapuso organization premiered its own version, GMA News TV on Feb. 28 through the network's other VHF channel, the former QTV-11.

TV5 can be viewed on Destiny on Channel 7 but not yet on the Lopez-owned Sky Cable, which has a commanding share of the cable market. The Lopez group, of course, owns ABS-CBN so loyalists of TV5 are crying “foul.”

While ANC is on the air 24/7, GNTV signs off at 12 midnight and returns at 6 a.m. The Kapuso news channel uses Tagalog for all of its shows, which means that it’s targeting the mass audience. This seems logical as a huge percentage of free-TV viewers belong to the CDE socio-economic class. ANC talents and guests usually speak English based on the assumption that cable subscribers belong to the ABC economic group.

GNTV identifies itself as a news and public affairs channel, and there’s plenty on its schedule. Aside from the regular newscasts and hourly updates, issue-oriented shows are plentiful. I am particularly interested in Winnie Monsod’s “Bawal ang Pasaway” (not the kind of title you would put on an ANC show) which will probably feature Winnie’s well-researched comments on pressing issues of the day. Jessica Soho’s “State of the Nation” had a revealing look at the state of the shipping industry the other day. Veteran journalist Malou Mangahas, who is known for her investigative reports, will be handling hot documentaries.




I notice though that the channel has more lifestyle and entertainment shows compared to ANC. This can probably be explained by GNTV’s masa-oriented programming. There’s a daily show biz newscast hosted by Rhian Ramos, a gossip show called Tweetbiz Insiders, a fashion-oriented production hosted by Solenn Heusaff, and various shows targeted at housewives. Then there are the holdovers shows like “American Idol” which will still run for three more months. There are also religious programs.

With three news channels, viewers who are tired of the endless teleseryes and talent search formats will now have more relevant choices. I wonder, though, how this will affect the profit and loss figures of the Big 3 networks. To start with, advertisers only allocate a small portion of their budgets to non-entertainment shows. With additional news groups competing for the small advertising pie, none of them will probably realize a profit.

I realize, of course, it’s not all about a healthy bottomline. It’s the psychic income that is driving ABS-CBN, TV 5 and GMA-7 to beef up their news departments. Prestige is a valuable commodity that can be more precious than the monetary earnings of a network.

ang motto ng gmanewstv ay oras oras may balita di ba?

pero nung unang pumutok ung tsunami /earthquake sa Japan dun pa lang ma-tetest mo na ung mga free and paid channels, so far pinaka-unang nagreport ng news na yun ay ung DZMM Teleradyo then ANC, I went to the other channel ung 11 pero hanggang 3pm ung reality show pa rin tungkol sa mga Smith's ung ine-air, after that sinubukan kong maglipat lipat pa at nauna ulit sila Korina sa 2 nag report, tapos nilipat ko sa 5 wala pa rin koreanovela pa rin ung nandun tapos nilipat ko sa 7 at 24 ulit, bandang malapit sa 4pm na nagflash report ung sa GMA7 then after that GMAnewstv follows...

malinaw ang assesment ko d2 wala akong kinikilingan nauna po magbalita ung mga abs owned company, siguro dahil co-partnered nila ung ibang cable news site such as CNN, BBC, CNBC at Al Jazeera kaya nauna sila.

un lang ...

----tama!!!
Kitang kita naman talaga kung ano yung talagang pinagplanuhan at pinagbuhusan ng panahon. Ginawa lng news channel not because they care about journalism but because kelangan nila ng kita. IN 25 years, ABS has established itself as the premier source of news sa bansa. Di sya overnight na ngyari. Pinatunayan ng ABS na news can also be a profitable business. Bakit ang GMA ngaun lang nagkukumahog magpaka dalubhasa sa News (ang kaso, mediocre news org pa nga lang sila pero kung makapag yabang na parang wala nang bukas). Ayun, follow the Leader na naman ang drama ng GMA at TV5.
Sa mga breaking news na lang ABS lagi ang una. Eh di lalo na pagdating sa mga news coverage. Mapa entertainment o news, AMPAW talaga ang GMWEEW!

to the one saying, why ANC is not a free a channel (only in cable), please do some research first. They already have to channels on free TV (ABS-CBN 2 & Studio 23), which is the maximum.

QTV 11 palang nagsimula na ang season ng AMERICAN IDOL. May kontrata sila sa fremantle.

Matalino din ang naisip ng GMA. Put GMA NEWS TV sa FREE TV CHANNEL para walang rason ang SKY CABLE na pag mamayari ng ABS CBN na hindi ito isali sa channel listing nila.

Anonymous said...

Hindi Free ang ANC dahil ang masa ay hindi mahilig sa balita. Kailangan ng masa ng variety at hindi pure news channel.

May News naman ang ABS CBN sa studio 23 at ABS CBN.

GMA News TV, Huli sa balita. Kanina, pagkatapos ng laban ng AZKALS ay naglabas ng segment ang GMA News TV kasama si Chino Trinidad. HINDI UPDATED, ang sabi nila kanina " dalawang araw mula ngayon ay lalaban ang AZKALS sa BLUE WOLVES ng Mongolia" eh tapos na nga ang laban...

Dyos ko... Nakakaloka ang GMA News TV, yan ba ang updated 24/7 news channel ng GMA?

natawa ako dun sa isang kapupung nagcomment.. ANC is the acronym of ABSCBN News Channel... bwahahaha ang hihina ng kukute... sana di na lang pinalitan ang QTV, parang ganun lang din naman.. tsaka pang-elite ang ANC... in fairness nung nasa province ako ung tita ko me local cable sila dun andun ang ANC... hindi makarelate ang mga taga kamuning at payatas jan BWAHAHAHA!

Sa mismong news ng main channel talo na GMA7.

Nakakatawa naman kasi kagabi sa 24 oras, pinakita ni Mike enriquez yung mga "pagbabago" sa Japan after the tsunami. Sabi ko, "nice naman, may ganun sila." Pero paglipat ko sa TVpatrol meron din sila. Pero di mo masasabi na ginaya nila kasi meron silang BEFORE AFTER, samantalang sa 24 oras, di mo malalaman kung After o before ba pinapakita.

GMA News AND Lifestyle TV said...

Ito ha. Very objective. Quantifiable and verifiable. Tama na huling huli na ang GMA News TV nung Tsunami news. Ang gamit ng News TV ay para anytime may malaking breaking news, ok lang i-cut ang regular programming. E para kasing QTV na may dagdag na na news and public affairs show lang e. Pwede siguro GMA News and Lifestyle TV? Akala ko balita round the clock, kahit man lang replay ng news past midnight wala. Gusto ko pa man din ang content ng GMA pagdating sa news at lalo na sa docu. Pero the news channel itself is not good.

Anonymous said...

Wala sa slogan yan. Ang issue kung alin ang mas worthy as a news channel irregardless kung pang masa o hindi o free o cable. The fact remains na one too many ang lifestyle shows sa GMA News TV na meant to compete in terms of programming sa ibang news channels like ANC, CNN, BBC.

I Think ANC will be a truly News Channel! Because, ANC got it all... They Have Business, Sports, And Other News Genres.. And Many News Channels around the world (CNN, BBC News etc..) are getting clips from ANC, for Philippine news

Anonymous said...

I am alternately watching both channels right now, ANC has Salima,1st DICT SECRETARY, talking live while GMA NewsTV has '' Byahe ni Drew" showing on it and thats enough for me/us to know which of the network really IS a news tv.
