K Brosas and Pokwang took on haters who took delight in the closure of ABS-CBN.
On the Instagram of Pokwang, the comedienne posted a screenshot of a Facebook post of Carlo Katigbak, CEO of ABS-CBN Corporation.
She wrote, “Let your voices be heard kapamilya! #notoabscbnshutdown #labankapamilya
NATURAL LANG MA MAG GRIEVE KA OR MAGALIT KA KAPAG MAY NAWALA SAYO LALO NA KUNG MAHAL MO DIBA? BAKIT IKAW NA TROLL KA HAPPY KABA KAPAG MAY NAWALA SAYO NA IMPORTANTE AT MAHAL MO? ”
She also called the trolls ‘bobo’ for their scripted tweets and remarks such as ‘No one is above the law’ and so on.
“AT SAKA PWEDE BA TAMA NA YANG MGA COMMENT NYO NA PARA BANG ANG TATALINO NYO AT NAGING KAKLASE NYO SI ALBERT EINSTEIN SA SOBRANG TALINO NYO AT FEELINGS KNOWS EVERYTHING KAYO! KAGAYA NG PAULIT ULIT NYONG HANASH NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW, MAGBAYAD KASI KAYO NG TAX, E WALA KASI KAYO PRANGKISA! UTANG NA LOOB TAMA NA YAN LAKAS MAKA BOBO!!!”
She also answered a netizen who called out ABS-CBN lawyers for their ‘negligence’ and ‘incompetence’, “Sige po baka pwede kayo nalang kunin nilang abogado? abogado po ba kayo? para mai rekomenda ko kayo.”

Comedienne and Tawag ng Tanghalan judge K Brosas sarcastically pointed out that netizens who are happy with the ABS-CBN shutdown are the same ones who ask for shoutouts from Kapamilya celebrities, “Nakakatawa yung mga natutuwa na off air ang ABS-CBN… pero kung maka hingi saken dati NG video greet at SA mga Kasama ko kahit simpleng shout out Lang daw ok na.. nakaka shutanginamez diba?? Lol.. Habanaysdey”

Last May 5, 2020, the National Telecommunications Commission released a Cease and Desist order against ABS CBN, the country’s leading broadcaster which effectively halted the operation of its national television and radio broadcasters.
