Cristy Fermin nag-resign sa The Buzz?
Ang ikinaloka pa ng co-host niyang si Boy Abunda, siya raw ang sinisisisi sa pagre-resign ni Cristy.
Ayaw pang magsalita ni Boy dahil ayaw niyang makialam sa usapin ng ABS-CBN at ni Cristy.
Talent lang din daw siya kaya mahirap makialam.
Sabi pa ni Boy, marami pa siyang dapat malaman dahil ’di lahat ng nakararating sa kanya ay pinaniniwalaan niya.
Ang management daw ng Dos ang dapat tanungin tungkol sa diumano’y pagre-resign ni Cristy.
Iba raw ang pinagsamahan nila ng columnist-TV host, ganundin ng network, kaya malabo kung papipiliin siya kung sino ang papanigan.
Lalabas at malalaman din daw ang tunay na dahilan ng pag-alis ni Ms. Fermin sa naturang showbiz talk program.
Pakiusap ni Boy, huwag siyang pagbintangan sa nangyari at huwag papiliin kung sino ang mas matimbang, ang ABS-CBN o si Cristy?
Hindi kaya may kaugnayan ito sa pagge-guest ni Annabelle Rama at pagsasalita tungkol sa ipinanalong kaso ng libelo, na diumano’y ’di nagustuhan ni Cristy?
In 1995, an article about Annabelle Rama’s alleged cases in US court was published in Gossip magazine owned by Cristy Fermin.
The lower court convicted Cristy Fermin for libel.
Now the news said that the Supreme Court affirmed the libel conviction on showbiz columnist and ordered her to pay P806,000 to couple Anabelle Rama and Eddie Gutierrez instead of serving the jail term slapped on her by a lower court.
Fermin had originally been sentenced to a jail term of from three months and 11 days of arresto mayor as minimum, to one year, eight months and 21 days of prision correccional as maximum.
The Supreme Court however ordered the columnist to pay the hefty fine instead of serving the sentence.
Fermin argued that being the publisher of the tabloid Gossip, she had no direct participation in the June 14, 1995 article about Rama and her alleged case before a US court.
Fermin added that the article, in its entirety is not defamatory.
But the high court pointed out that Fermin’s admission she is also the chairperson and president of the tabloid proved she had full control over the publication of articles.
As of presstime, we got word from ABS-CBN Corporate Communications head Bong Osorio na hindi nag-resign si Cristy sa The Buzz. ‘No, Cristy Fermin has not resigned from The Buzz, but she will not be in the show on April 20 and 27 because of a commitment in Canada. ‘If plans push through, she is scheduled to leave on April 17.
