Monday, June 3, 20130 comments

IN THE WAKE of the controversy surrounding the rape jokes made by comedian Vice Ganda, who is affiliated with ABS-CBN, about GMA newscaster Jessica Soho during his comedy show at the Araneta Coliseum on May 17, video clips showing comedy skits from a GMA show which make jokes about rape have been circulating online, prompting GMA to make a statement defending itself. 

“Video clips of GMA Network’s Entertainment Program Bubble Gang have been circulating the past few days showing gags about rape. We would like to clarify that these video clips were aired some years back. In fact, a concerned viewer called the attention of the Network regarding this and the production team of Bubble Gang right away apologized to her and has made it a policy never to tackle the said topic in any of its episodes thereafter,” said Butch S. Raquel, Consultant to the Chairman and GMA’s CEO for Corporate Communications.

“Bubble Gang has been a top-rating and award-winning program of GMA 7 for almost 18 years. The Network hopes that the program will not be used to divert the attention of the viewers, netizens and the general public from a recent event which has irresponsibly made a joke of this serious topic.”

After a public outcry, Vice Ganda made a public apology to Ms. Soho last week.
