The Kapuso network claims the Kapamilya network is not telling the truth.

This is the gist of GMA-7's public statement about the civil case filed by ABS-CBN against ratings service provider AGB Nielsen.

The statement, which came from Kapuso network corporate communications consultant Butch Racquel, was sent in the form of a press release to PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) this afternoon, December 28.

The press release singles out a statement that it says the Kapamilya network often includes in its press releases about ratings (itals provided):

"ABS-CBN shifted to Kantar Media/TNS after filing a case vs. AGB Nielsen Media Research for failing to comply with its request to investigate alleged cheating and data tampering in TV ratings. The case is still pending in court."

GMA Network led in TV ratings in viewer-rich Mega Manila as of the first quarter of 2010, according to survey results from TV ratings data supplier AGB Nielsen Philippines.

Based on a report sent to PEP (Philippine Entertainment Portal) by the corporate communications department of GMA-7, the Kapuso network edged out competition with an average audience share of 37.2 percent, 1.3 percentage points higher than ABS-CBN's 35.9 percent.

ABS-CBN's new fantaserye Agua Bendita seemed to be continuing the winning streak of May Bukas Pa in the primetime race. Agua Bendita, which took over the timeslot of May Bukas Pa, debuted last February 8 with a very impressive 37.7 percent to claim overall leadership. It also seemed that the Kapamilya network has found another gem in Andi Eigenmann, who is starring in her very first solo soap.

Aside from Agua Bendita, three new shows from GMA-7 also debuted last Monday—the early primetime series First Time, the afternoon soap Gumapang Ka Sa Lusak, and the early morning talent show Diz Iz It!.

First Time, which stars tween idols Barbie Forteza, Joshua Dionisio, and Jhake Vargas posted a rating of 18.7 percent on its pilot episode, just missing the Top 10 of the primetime race.

Gumapang Ka Sa Lusak, starring Dennis Trillo and Jennylyn Mercado, debuted at No. 6 in the daytime race by virtue of its 13.5 percent rating. Diz It It!, on the other hand, tied with ABS-CBN's Maria de Jesus: Anghel Sa Lansangan at No. 10 with 12.1 percent.

Wowowee topped the daytime race with 23.5 percent.

Here are the comparative ratings of ABS-CBN and GMA-7 programs last February 8 based on the overnight ratings of Taylor Nelson Sofres (TNS) among National households.
