Here’s what Korina Sanchez said about the “retrenched” rumors
Rated K host Korina Sanchez reacted to the rumors stating that she was “sinibak” following the ABS-CBN franchise denial.
After the Congress denied the franchise application of the TV giant, the management needed to retrench employees. Due to this, many of the retrenched employees transferred to other TV networks.
It was alleged that one of those employees who has faced termination was Korina. However, during a recent virtual interview on Tim Yap Live, the veteran journalist clarified that she was not “sinibak”.
She stressed that she cannot be retrenched as she already retired and that happened three years ago.
“First of all I wasn’t retrenched, contrary to some of the headlines. No, I wasn’t retrenched because I was able to negotiate a really good retirement package with Mr. Gabby Lopez three years ago,” Korina Sanchez said, based on the article from The Philippine Star.
She called this “retirement package” as “really generous”. Korina also shared that ABS-CBN allowed her to carry her Rated K program on her social media pages.
She said that she talked about it with Ging Reyes, the ABS-CBN News chief and the latter agreed. “So now, we were able to watch ‘Rated K’ every Sunday on ‘Rated Korina’ page every Sunday,” Korina said.
When talking about her career in the broadcast industry for three decades now, the journalist said that it is all about being “target-oriented”. She pointed out that life is so short and she has to focus to her goals in order to achieve what she wants.
“I’m already past 50, so I think very early in my life, in my 20s pa lang, what interests me. Parang bagong empleyado pa lang ako sa ABS-CBN, alam ko nang kailangang mag-ammortization na ko ng art,” Korina Sanchez shared.
Previously, it was alleged that she was chosen to replace Kris Aquino who is supposed to have a new talk show on TV5.
