ABS-CBN was voted by the academic community in Central Luzon as the Best TV Station for the seventh straight year in the Paragala: The Central Luzon Media Awards.
ABS-CBN’s entertainment programs also raked in awards, including “It’s Showtime” (Best Noontime Show), “Maalala Mo Kaya” (Best TV Anthology), “Kadenang Ginto” (Best Teleserye), and “Tonight with Boy Abunda” (Best Talk Show). ABS-CBN Lifestyle, on the other hand, won Best Digital Content for Lifestyle.
The Kapamilya network’s news division reaped awards, with DZMM’s Radyo Patrol Balita receiving the Best Multi-Platform News Program award, while “Umagang Kay Ganda” and host Gretchen Ho were hailed as Best Morning Show Program and Best News Personality, respectively.
For Kapamilya personalities, real-life Darna and “Iba ‘Yan” host Angel Locsin emerged as this year’s big winner after receiving the PARAGALA pang LINGKURAN award for her remarkable philanthropic deeds, on top of being among the Top Entertainment Personalities.
Other Kapamilya stars that made it as Top Entertainment Personality were Anne Curtis, Daniel Padilla, Enrique Gil, James Reid, Kathryn Bernardo, Liza Soberano, and Nadine Lustre.
Holy Angel University’s Paragala Central Luzon Media is said to be the biggest student-based award-giving body in the Philippines, and the first in the region, with around 29 schools participating in voting for the winners every year. Held virtually this year due to the pandemic last December 12, it aims to recognize outstanding programs and personalities in the field of media.
