GMA NEWS BEATS ABS-CBN NEWS ON SOCIAL NETWORKING SITES!

The emergence of the Philippines as one of the world’s social media capitals —with one out of every three Filipinos on Facebook— has led to the widespread acceptance of social media as a key source of news and current information.Earlier this year, social media came to the fore as the main channels of information concerning the magnitude 6.7 earthquake that hit Negros Island. And late last year, social media also proved crucial in reporting on, and finding help for, the victims of Typhoon Sendong in Mindanao.


“[Social media] are a direct connection to web users and TV viewers, and are an efficient avenue for gathering and delivering news. They are also platforms for receiving feedback and ideas about our programming,” says Howie Severino, Vice President for Multimedia Journalism of GMA Network.

The immediacy and impact of social media are such that they have been recognized by the Pulitzer Prize alongside traditional journalism stalwarts.

“I think you’ll continue to see social media in the breaking news category, but it will show up in others as well,” said Pulitzer Prize administrator Sig Gissler of the growing number of prize-winning stories from social media.

Filipinos’ own widespread adoption of social media for news consumption is reflected in the growing following accorded to the news accounts of the country’s top broadcast networks.

GMA News, in particular, is the most-followed individual news account on Twitter and Facebook among local news broadcasters.

On social networking site Facebook, as of April 17, GMA News’ fan page had a total of 403,999 likes, while ABS-CBNNews.com had 223,510 and TV5’s JournalisMo posted 205,304.

Meanwhile, GMA News’ Twitter account, @GMANews, hit 726,855 followers as of April 17, while ABS-CBN News had 407,103. Meanwhile, ABS-CBN News Channel (ANC)’s Twitter account had a total following of 416,858 as of that time.

It is estimated that about 30% of Filipinos are active online, and according to a 2010 study by global digital marketing intelligence agency comScore, the Philippines scored the highest penetration of social media in the Asia-Pacific region, with more than 90 percent of its entire web population visiting a social networking site in February 2010.

eh bakit di ang GMA News TV kumukuha ng news ang CNN at BBC?


mas pinagkakatiwalaan ang ABS-CBN News at ANC ng foreign news channel.

Kung napanood nyo nung isang gabi mas nauna pang nagbigay ng report ang CNN Chief Correspondent na si Stan Grant sa The World Tonight ng ANC kesa sa CNN. dyan mong makikita na mas nauuna ang ANC kesa sa GMA News TV.


GMA News verified account sa twitter pero mismo yung nasa loob ng news department nila puro ESTAFADORA! hahahaha paano mapagkakatiwalaan yan?

Para sa ikaiintindi ng LAHAT, Given talaga na mas Maraming Likes ang GMA News TV sa Facebook at Twitter kesa sa ANC kasi naman po, nasa FREE TV ang GMA News TV since FREE TV sya kaya mas marami ang nakakaalam na may GMA News TV while yung ANC eh nasa Cable kaya ang mga Nakakapanood lang ng ANC eh yung may CABLE kaya expected na di ganyan kadami ang Likes sa Facebook at Twitter ng ANC pero kagaya nga ng sabi ng isang Kapamilya dito na kahit mas maraming Likes ang GMA News TV kesa sa ANC eh di naman nakakababa ng Credibilidad yan sa part ng ANC ;))) Remember, ang ANC lang ang 24 Hours na News TV di gaya ng IBA diyan na kung makapagsalita ng 24 Oras eh di man lang nangalahati ang Oras at Sign-off na ;))) Atleast diyan nalang bumabawi ang GMA kasi naman mga teh BUGBOG na BUGBOG na ang GMA sa mga PALABAS ng ABS-CBN at ang mga AD Loads Umuulan ng Severe sa ABS-CBN while sa GMA eh iilang commercials nalang ;))) Kaloka! Diyan kasi magaling ang GMA eh, sa Press Release ;) Di nga PINANGANGALANDAKAN ng ABS-CBN na MILLION na ang Likes nila sa Facebook at more than 120,000 + ang followers ng Dos sa twitter kesa sa GMA na 45,000 + lang ang Followers ng GMA ;)))

GMA NEws vs. ABS News ang usapan. SO tama rin naman yung article. Ang problema lang it doesn't paint a complete and accurate bigger picture. Dapat pala hindi pinaghiwalay ng ABS ang BIz, Showbiz, at News accounts. Ang GMA ba may hiwalay na account for other "news?" Kung wala, siguro mas tama ngang i-add ibang news ng ABS. Kung meron ang GMA, compute na tayo.

wrong info to, dito sa facebook, ang ABS ay may 2,264,084 likes, ang GMA ay may 522,725 likes lang, eh bakit nagsisinungaling kayo?

mga sinungaling ang GMA, kasi insecure, alam na alam na nila na nabisto na ang dayaan nila, so ngayon todo praise release ang mga binabayaran reporters nila

LInawin lang natin. Dito nagsisimula ang away. Tama naman po ang article. It is talking about ABS NEWS vs GMA NEWS. Hindi po ABS vs GMA. ABS as a network iba pa ang FB account sa ABS News department. Walang mang-aaway. Nilinaw ko lang. Kapamilya din ako. May iba kasing die hard, may masabi lang na parang di pabor, kalaban agad o fake kaagad.
