On Thursday night, May 5, 2016, an anti-Duterte political advertisement which was aired on network giant ABS-CBN drawn flak on social media.
The controversial TV commercial paid for by Sen. Antonio Trillanes landed as the hottest topic in various social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram and micro-blogging site, Twitter.
The TV ad features children reacting to the controversial remarks of the tough-talking Davao City mayor, including his controversial remark to an Australian missionary and “cursing” at Pope Francis.
Despite the controversial ad, solid Duterte supporters said that they won’t change their minds upon supporting the PDP-Laban standard-bearer in the May 9, 2016 elections on Monday.
ABS-CBN has released a statement for airing anti-Duterte ad which was paid for by Sen. Trillanes for 20 million. On the other hand, the vice presidential candidate aired an official statement over the pressing controversy.
