@EyeMAbrain, you are right, after a while it really gets irritating. what abs-cbn should do is to get an american-born filipino reporter to do the job and give it justice. but knowing abs-cbn, they will never pay american rates to improve their service. heck, they will never pay for anything to improve their service!
@bagingkagu I just think there are much better reporters back home who can replace this tired old hag who has no grasp of how truly report compellingly. I'm embarrassed every time I listen to her.
@gnodeanim Her diction and her pronunciation is horrendous period. It's like she tries to get rid of the full filipino accent by speaking in that American slang but fails. I'd prefer she speaks English like Corrina Sanchez or Karen Davialla, who have a Filipino accent, but does not try to hide it. There's a reason y she s not bigger than she s now and stuck doing this show with the worst Journalism imaginable. Filipino reporting back home is 1000x better. Her reporting is just not compelli

@EyeMAbrain, if you are really in the know, you know that 'slang' is the pinoy street slang for 'accent'. if something needs to be replaced, it is your words. 'slang' needs to be replaced with 'accent'. 'wanabe' needs to be replaced with 'wannabe'.
what i'm driving at is: why are we so preoccupied with trivialities?
@EyeMAbrain Hahaha. That's mean. But I agree. Its a little hard on the ears. Reminds me of Steve Martin and Dan Akroyd on SNL. "Two wild and crazy guys"
@EyeMabrain Gel Santos Relos' audience is TFC community. I do not see any need why she should be replaced just because of her twang. I can very well hear the Filipino accent in her reporting and that is perfectly fine. Everybody carries an accent. We do not have to be too arrogant. Gel is a seasoned and respected reporter in TFC. And shall I say, you are an ignorant all-knowing nobody.
