Marcos walang kinalaman sa pagre-resign ni Atom sa TV Patrol, Bandila

ATOM Araullo cleared the reason for resigning sa ABS-CBN News.

There were reports that he resigned because he doesn’t want to be biased on his reporting dahil may paniniwala siyang kontra sa current administration.

“For clarity. I quietly resigned as a news reporter of ABS-CBN a few weeks ago to explore other areas of media and to grow as a journalist. However, I continue to work with the network and our programs. My political views were not a factor in making this decision.

“Having studied pressing issues based on fact and with an open mind, journalists, like any other individual, should ultimately stand up for the truth.

“This does not weaken our journalism, it strengthens it. Our guiding principles are fairness and accuracy. As we face tougher scrutiny from the public, we in media also strive to be more transparent and open to criticism.

“I thank everyone for the support they expressed on social media. I look forward to playing my role in the debates and issues to come.”

That was Atom’s explanation. So, there!!!
