Anthony signed the contract with AMBS President Maribeth Tolentino, AMBS General Counsel Atty. TJ Mendoza, AMBS Chief Finance Officer Maryknoll Zamora at Mella Hotel in Las Piñas on Sept. 6.
“We welcome Mr. Anthony Taberna to our family. Ka Tunying’s intelligent insights on radio and TV make him one of the trusted news personalities in the country. He gives our public interesting views, news scoops, and entertaining programs, making him fit for ALLTV,” Maribeth said.
Anthony, who was accompanied by his wife and Outbox Media’s top executive, Rossel, at the event, is excited about it all.
He is thankful for the trust given him by AMBS.
He said, “Thank you po sa pamilya ng AMBS dahil pamilya nyo na ako ngayon. Salamat po sa tiwala ninyo sa akin. Alam ninyo, pinag-uusapan nga namin ng aking boss – ang aking misis – kung ano ang maiiambag natin sa larangan ng telebisyon… sabi niya sa akin, 48 years (old) pa lang naman ako sa January….Kumbaga ay napakamura ko pa lang po para lumisan sa larangan ng telebisyon.”
Taberna, who has been in the broadcast industry for 30 years, added, “Ang pagsimula po ng aking pang-40 na taon sa pamamahayag, kasama ko po ang AMBS-ALLTV.”
ALLTV is the newest TV network joining the Philippine broadcast spectrum.
It aims to provide Filipino viewers an elevated TV experience in the country.
Maribeth cited Anthony’s high-trust rating as the reason why ALLTV tapped him as one of the pioneer talents of the new TV network.
