Korina takes a leave from radio program
(UPDATE) Broadcast journalist Korina Sanchez took a leave from DZMM to focus on her postgraduate studies at the Ateneo de Manila University.
“Korina Sanchez is currently on leave from her morning program on DZMM to concentrate on her postgraduate studies at the Ateneo de Manila University. This was planned as early as middle of 2013 when Korina informed ABS-CBN management about her intentions to focus on her studies. Korina will continue to be seen on television as anchor of 'TV Patrol' and 'Rated K,'" a press statement released by ABS-CBN revealed.
Various speculations about Korina’s stay in the Kapamilya network cropped up after she questioned CNN anchor Anderson Cooper’s coverage of super typhoon Yolanda. When she took a leave from “TV Patrol,” many people speculated that she was suspended or was asked to take a leave.
But Korina explained that her absence from the daily news program was due to her special coverage on Yolanda .
Meanwhile, “TV Patrol” reported on Sunday, January 5, that Korina is set to renew her contract with ABS-CBN. "Sakto," hosted by Amy Perez and Marc Logan, is replacing Korina’s DZMM program starting Monday, January 6.
