Television host Willie Revillame launched a loyalty check to all of his employees after an alleged audio recording of him circulated in public.
According to columnist Cristy Fermin, the said audio recording was taken secretly while Revillame was fuming during the height of the accusations being thrown against him.
In the said audio recording that was also published by Fermin’s online show, it can be heard the man scolding his staff saying that he can still have a show without them.
Fermin’s co-host Rommel Chika then shared that Revillame started to find his disloyal staff.
“Ang nangyayari po ngayon ay naglo-loyalty check daw si Willie Revillame sa kanyang mga tauhan, sa kanyang staff,” Chika said.
The columnist then shared that the main target of Revillame during the investigation was the one who allegedly recorded him secretly.
“Ang inaalam po niya mga kapatid at ka-chika ay kung nasa loob pa ba ng kanyang produksyon ‘yung mga nagpapakalat po ng isyu laban sa kanya o ‘yung mga umalis na,” Fermin said.
Meanwhile another co-host of Fermin, Wendell Alvarez said that he understood the reason why Revillame wanted to investigate his own staff.
“Alam mo ‘yan ang mahirap kasi ‘yung mga tauhan mo hindi puwedeng may magtraydor sa iyo. Masakit kasi iyon, pinakain mo na, sinahuran mo na, binigyan mo (ng trabaho) tapos ta-traydurin pa siya. Kaya nga naglo-loyalty check siya ngayon pero mahirap pong matunton o ma-trace kasi ang mga kumakalat po ngayon na audio-video ay hindi naman taga loob ang mga nagkukuwento.” he said.
As of writing, Revillame has yet to respond to the issue about his alleged audio recording.
