Mauling incident of TV-entertainment host Vhong Navarro
On Jan. 23, 2014, the beating of celebrity-host Vhong Navarro made headlines in Philippine television news programs. The incident was linked to a blotter report filed by a 22-year-old model-stylist accusing the artist of rape.
Navarro appeared on ABS-CBN’s showbiz program Buzz ng Bayan to narrate his version of the events of January 22. Navarro’s camp later said that he was suing the model, a certain Cedric Lee, a certain Mike and other unidentified men for serious physical injuries, illegal detention and extortion.
The Center for Media Freedom and Responsibility (CMFR) monitored the news programs TV Patrol and 24 Oras on January 27. ABS-CBN 2’s TV Patrol devoted 36 minutes and 41 seconds, or 65 percent of its entire air time, on Navarro. The news program had a total of eight stories on the incident including reports on the possible procedural lapses of the Southern Police District, an interview with the model and Lee, an interview with Navarro’s lawyer, and reports on celebrities and netizens expressing support for the celebrity-host.
TV Patrol anchor Korina Sanchez said at the end of the program: “…at si Vhong, magpagaling ka Vhong, mahal ka namin(and to you Vhong, get well soon. We love you).” Navarro is one of the hosts of ABS-CBN 2’s noontime variety show It’s Showtime.
GMA 7’s 24 Oras used 23 minutes and 55 seconds, or 43 percent of its entire airtime, to report on the incident. The program had seven news reports including an interview with Lee and the model, a report on the NBI investigation on the case, and a statement from GMA management. Earlier news reports said that the model is related to GMA 7′s Chairman and CEO Felipe Gozon, but that was later denied by the station.
