We write in reply to the Exchange’s request for confirmation on the news article entitled “Is ABS-CBN coming back to free television via Zoe TV?” posted in Manila Bulletin (Online Edition) on October 4, 2020. The article reported in part that:
“It looks like better days are coming for ABS-CBN.
Fans speculated that Kapamilya programs would be seen on Zoe TV, a free television channel, after SkyCable, an affiliate of ABS-CBN, added Zoe TV Channel 11 to its channel line-up based on the cable firm’s advisory.
‘Zoe Channel will be added to your SKYCable plans starting October 5, 2020,’ the latest advisory of SkyCable said.
It is believed that ABS-CBN and Zoe TV would have a Blocktimer Agreement.
Such agreement is nothing new in the media and television industry, observers said.
. . . .
Earlier it was reported that ABS-CBN and Zoe TV would have partnerships with websites Philippine Entertainment Portal (PEP) and Bilyonaryo.
. . . .
Zoe Broadcasting Network, Inc. (Zoe) is presently in its 28th year of Christian, family-oriented and wholesome television and radio broadcasting, according to its website.
The network has been granted the legislative franchise and authority to operate an AM Radio Station (DZJV /1458 kHz Calamba) in Calamba City, Laguna, a VHF TV Channel 11 in Mega Manila and UHF TV Channels 33 in Mega Manila and Puerto Princesa City, Palawan, and (DWZB 91.1 MHz Palawan), an FM Radio Station in Puerto Princesa, Palawan.
Its TV platforms are available in Metro Manila and neighboring provinces on free TV, nationwide through various cable stations and worldwide through live streaming and other new media formats.
In Calamba City, DZJV 1458 kHz AM takes pride as the pioneering and only local radio station in the great city of Calamba, the birthplace of our National Hero Dr. Jose P. Rizal.
. . . .”
We are aware that Zoe TV Channel 11 will be added to SkyCable’s channel line-up, in accordance with their advisory.
We are also aware of public speculation that there are initiatives being explored by the Corporation to distribute its content across additional platforms. The Corporation will disclose any initiatives that become definitive in due course.
