From being a documentary and special reports researcher to becoming the head of GMA Network News and Public Affairs, Marissa Flores ends a chapter of her Kapuso life with much respect and love from everyone – on air and off cam.
There are a lot of adjectives to describe Marissa Flores as Senior Vice President of GMA News and Public Affairs, but ‘humility’ and ‘Serbisyong Totoo’ may be the closest words that resonate to everyone who had the privilege of working with her in the past three decades.
“She has always been humble and unassuming. Sa aking palagay, ito rin ang dahilan kung bakit siya nakabuo ng mahusay na team. She was able to draw out the best in her people and has always allowed them to shine. Under her watch, Kapuso Mo, Jessica Soho has maintained its position in the top three programs in NUTAM since pre-pandemic. 24 Oras emerged in the overall top five programs in 2020 and has consistently been in the top ranks to date.
“Siya ang naniwala sa akin na kaya kong gumising ng umaga , at na mas guwapo ako kay Edu Manzano .” Clavio further adds, it was Flores who believed that he can have a talk show, hence the birth of “Tonight with Arnold Clavio,” and that Arnold can stay up to provide viewers news every night. “Siya ang naniwala sa akin na kaya kong magpuyat ng may responsabilidad ”.
“In an environment that could have been toxic and cutthroat, she sought to create a humane place, where people cared about each other and helped one another when in need. Safety was a constant concern. From this wellspring of humanity, one drew inspiration to strive and serve.
“Hers is a quiet brilliance because at her core, she is a journalist, and has remained so through the years,” says Senior Assistant Vice President for GMA News and Public Affairs Digital Media Jaemark Tordecilla. “Her first priority is always getting the facts right and telling the truth, her biggest concern is how our productions would be of service to the people.”
