GMA Network’s employees’ union, TAG (Talents Association of GMA Network), has acknowledged the thank you letter sent by ABS-CBN executives Carlo Katigbak and Mark Lopez.
In a post on their Facebook page Buhay Media, TAG shared the letter sent by the two Kapamilya executives thanking them for their support for the renewal of the ABS-CBN franchise.
For their part, TAG reiterated that while ABS-CBN has persisting labor issues, the denial of its franchise is too cruel for a punishment.
The group also added that labor issues should be resolved by other government agencies and not by Congress.

TAG is one of the groups that supported the ABS-CBN franchise.
During the hearing in Congress, TAG made an open letter saying it is unfair for ABS-CBN to be judged for their labor issues when GMA Network which also has labor issues filed in court got renewed without any problems.
The House committee on legislative franchise denied the ABS-CBN franchise on July 10 after 70 congressmen voted against the application.
Unfair Labor practices was one of the main allegations hurled against the Kapamilya network at the hearing.
