Gretchen Barreto denies that she’s supporting ABS-CBN franchise: “I AM PRO DUTERTE!”

Former actress and socialite Gretchen Barretto denied that she’s supporting ABS-CBN after the House of Representatives junked the franchise application of the said television network.

In a series of Instagram posts, Barreto disowned a Twitter account named after her that expressed support to the 11 lawmakers who pushed for the franchise of ABS-CBN.

“THIS IS A FAKE TWITTER ACCOUNT!!! I Have Not made a single statement regarding congress & abs cbn ???” Barreto said.

This is a FAKE Twitter ACCOUNT! I DO NOT HAVE A TWITTER ACCOUNT. I AM PRO DUTERTE ???,” she also posted.

Rita Avila, who’s a known supporter of ABS-CBN couldn’t stop herself from giving comment on Barreto’s post.

“You are right, no single statement made,” Avila said.

When netizens asked if Avila’s comment to Barreto was a sarcastic one, the former clarified that she’s supporting the latter for being ‘truthful’.

“Hmmm, I think some didn’t get my comment right. I am supporting Gretchen for her truthful caption. Tutoo ang sinabi nya,” Avila commented.
