This was shared on a popular showbiz site and netizens slammed Toni’s explanation. Some said that being “banlag” comes from birth and this was not acquired eventually because of a certain factor. They believe that this is not the explanation because veteran broadcasters could have been “banlag” as well if this would apply to everyone who had to do hosting before teleprompters were widely used.
A netizen suggested that Toni is “duling”. On the other hand, a netizen took Toni’s side and commented that it could be noticed that other broadcasters looked “banlag.” Here are some comments.
