"TV Patrol: Dalawampung Taon ng Pagpapatrol’ goes back in time to relive history — the stories that were told, the people who made the news and the faces who brought the news to the people," said ABS-CBN Corporate Communications head Bong Osorio.
One of the show’s historic marks happened during the Martial Law when they broke media silence and brought information to the people.
Until now, "TV Patrol World" continues to pursue this dedication for truth and constantly involves the citizenry though Citizen Journalism, which was first applied in "Hoy Gising." It was then innovated through the use of technology in TV Patrol World’s segment Citizen Patrol and ABS–CBN’s breakthrough election campaign, "Boto Mo iPatrol Mo," which recently won the Award for Excellence in the Philippine Gold Quill Awards and Honorable Mention in the Asia Pacific PR Awards.
"In its 20 years of quality service, TV Patrol did more than just delivering news — it empowered a nation," added Osorio.
