MANILA, Philippines - ABS-CBN's senior reporter Doris Bigornia is now under fire for alleged rudeness towards GMA Southern Mindanao news team in Davao City.
In a lengthy Facebook post, reporter John Paul Seniel accused Bigornia of threatening their DMNG engineer Al Lim Ramz during their live interview with Christopher “Bong” Go, Davao City Mayor Rodrigo Duterte’s executive assistant.
"Our DMNG Engineer Al Lim Ramz politely told you to excuse yourself from our camera since you became an eye sore to my live report," Seniel said.
"Mr. Bong Go and I were on cam, but you (Bigornia) immediately scolded him (Ramz) and even told him "sapakin kita," he added.

The Kapuso reporter expressed his dismay on how Bigornia has shown her foul treatment to the staff.
"Pero nakakabahala ang inasta niyo. Regional Media kami, oo, pero kahit ihilera ka sa amin dito sa region, namumukod tangi kami sa rehiyon namin dahil rehiyon namin ito. Kahit sa rehiyon namin, hindi kami pa star, we work with humility and authority," he continued.
