Pinay Actress Agot Isidro Finally Speaks About Rappler’s Closure Order
The Filipina actress Agot Isidro finally speaks about SEC’s order to revoke Rappler’s certificate of registration due to its alleged violation.
Previously, Rappler’s closure order has been one of the hottest headlines of several local news outlets and numerous social media pages.
The Security and Exchange Commission (SEC), has revoked the license to operate on the local news site ‘Rappler’ for allegedly violating the constitutional restriction on foreign ownership of mass media.
However, Rappler denied the accusations and insisted that the news company remains 100 percent Filipino-owned.
Recently, the Pinay celebrity and the Changing Partners’ star Agot Isidro has reacted to Rappler’s closure and also expressed her opinion regarding the issue.
Isidro said that she stands by press freedom because they only express what they had seen, but at the same time they also need feedback to improve their services and performances.
The actress also said that doesn’t know if Rappler’s closure order is a form of political attack and emphasized that everyone has the right to express its own opinion.
“I do not know. I’m not sure that the root of this is political. That is not for me to say. Sila ang naapektuhan nun pero I think for us we have to kind of be on guard kasi kung nagagawa nila yan sa media outfit, puwedeng mangyari sa atin yan. Siguro I’m just thinking long term na baka tayo hindi na tayo puwede magsalita and that’s a ‘no’ to the democracy because we have every right,” Isidro said quoted by ABS-CBN.
The 51-year-old celebrity admitted that the current order to close Rappler might not be good for the future, but she was still hoping that things would get better.
