GMA7 and its subsidiaries dominated the news category bagging nine out of eleven awards. Meanwhile, ABS-CBN and its subsidiaries conquered the entertainment category getting 11 trophies including the Central Luzon’s Choice for a TV Station.
The awards night was attended by media people from different television networks including Mike Enriquez, Arnold Clavio, Jay Taruc and Ivan Mayrina. The appearance of Antonio Aquitania, Diego and Rufa Mae received the loudest cheers from the audience while accepting the trophy for Bubble Gang, the Central Luzon’s Choice for a Gag Show.
