What's behind Mr. Anthony Taberna's Success?
His voice does not really sound good. He speaks tentatively and unsure. His opinions are often baseless. He hides behind his listeners text messages (if they really are) to get some points across. His interviews are shallow. Yet, he’s got primetime radio programs on DZMM.
He is neither cute nor handsome. He doesn’t look true. He does not even project a wholeseme image. Yet now, he is on TV!I knew nobody who listens to him. He is totally unremarkable. So, what is behind Anthony Taberna’s unbelievable success?
He was the first to have the Garci Tapes. He was also there at the
Hmmm, well… we can only guess.

May pagnanasa ka kay tonying, ano?
Bakit ba galit na galit ka kay Anthony?
Hmmm... "galit na galit"?
i know people who listen to him and like him as well. if you don't like him, well it's up to you, but i suggest don't be too judgemental. you don't really know the person.
You are right... I do not really know the person... People can only judge him from how people hear him.
Perhaps you know the person.
At least one must say why one likes him... No blind followers here please...
cguro isa yan sa sinapak ni mang tonying sa tv kaya galit na galit....
ok man c mang tonying pero dapat din nating isipin na we cannot please everybody...
I work as an MRO (media relations officer) for Congressman. I knew Anthony way back when he was assigned sa Senate.
In Congress, it's an open secret that he is a "Pagador" for the opposition. Pagador is a term we use for media men who works as PR. One of his principals is Rep Suplico. There are many instances when Anthony gave copies of Cong Rolex's PRs to the media there. The envelop follows around 6pm.
Pagador? Hmmm.
Anthony is a member of Iglesia ni Cristo, i guess he is a kind of a pastor for young members, if orgot their terms...i guess this is one reason...you know, having "white horse" gives you big advantage over others..i think you know what i mean...but i don't really agree to all your observations...i like anthony's way of attacking issues, incorporating sense of humor in delivering your opinion can break the monotonous, sloppy and boring traditional commentaries...i like it when they do their stuffs in dos por dos with his partner Baja.
He is not just attacking the issues... he is actually creating them out of nothing..
He is obviously a paid hack and his program "dos por dos" is part of a propaganda machine for someone.
Something is really wrong with people who does not see what he is doing.
This is important message for Mr taberna...if you can still remember me talking in the telepone before the awkwood mutiny... I an police officer who had complete knowledge about how the aroyo administration Rig the 2004 election... it was Fernando Poe Jr who won the election... we have the evidence in our hands...
contact me if you want full detail...
Tnx

bakt po kayo galit kay sir anthony? ok nman po siya at pra saken credible xa, magkakatiwalaan at magaling na atty. at isang media person. sana po nde nu na siya icriticize..
Well as far as I know he is one of the few credible media man. Those who do not agree kill yourself.
I like Anthony a lot! the way he critisize the bad men! he has all the guts & the knowledge of the right critisms...If you are not aware & agree of it..then, you are belong to the group of MONSTERs who would like to do corruptions & anything that will cause poverty in this country..YOu must GO TO ANOTHER PLANET MIND YOU!!!
hey...he must be doing something right...he's on t.v. right?...ARE YOU???

If you watch punto for punto without any prejudice at all, you should notice that he starts with a prevailing issue/latest news from which the inquiry is based upon

You don't really know that, do you?
Something is really wrong with people who does not see what he is doing.
That goes both ways, my friend. Whatever he is doing is open to any interpretation. And obviously you have chosen your side.
It is very easy to deny even something which is very obvious... Some people would prefer to act and think stupid rather than face the truth. That is how low some people would go.
I've never heard of Anthony until I subscribed with TFC. I can tell he reminds me of our controversial politican Pauline Hansen. Why? Anthony can see the government's flaws and he raised these issues (I admire him for that) but the only problem is I haven't heard him proposing any solution to the problems.
I also noticed that this guy is so bias. I remember him saying before the elections that voters should be wise and not to vote for celebrities but the way he speaks against the incumbent government and how he favours former President Erap, it makes me doubt his sincerity as Erap is an actor... Oh well, I'd love to have a debate with you Mr Taberna...
is jerry baha also a member of INC?
,.,magaling talaga si anthony, at matalino pa, ibang klase siya kung magbigay ng comment sa isang issue
The best talaga sa mga present crop of radio and tv commentators si Anthony Taverna!
That is why ABS-CBN gave him prime time slots o TV and radio.
Very sensible ang mga comment niya.
There are commenters here who praises Mr. Taberna... they say he is good without saying why.
Sorry, that won't work here.
magaling c anthny..hes one of the best..sana lang wag xang pagagamit sa mga pulitko...
Kuya tonying palagi kita pinanonood sa tv. idol kita..... go 4 it.... ang galing moh sobra.....
kuya tonying, good job, idol!!! go 4 it, punto 4 punto tayo''' gudluck sa mga misyon....
galing talaga ni kuya tonying... hindi halata ang banat, parang totoo... idol...
check out youtube and search for athony taberna. you get to see a glimpse of his wedding. one of his sponsors is senator lacson. go figure. everything in our country is political. even the media.
In fairness to Mr. Taberna, many in showbiz get everyone to sponsor their weddings... I am sure Taberna would have wedding sponsors too that are pro-administration...
But what we can see here is that they are not ordinary folks. They have access to the rulers of this country. They really know what is going on and they are just playing with and on the perception of the people.
Well i was wrong...
It seems that Taberna just cannot hide his closeness with Lacson.. the principal sponsor to his wedding (per aster amoyo). You just can see how credibility is not important to them.
Joint political and showbiz wedding
By: Aster Amoyo/If I Know
THE recent wedding of DzMM’s popular radio commentator and field reporter Anthony Taberna (33) of Nueva Ecija and 22-year-old lass from Calamba, Laguna, Rossel Velasco which was held at the Iglesia ni Cristo temple on E. Rodriguez Avenue, Cubao, Quezon City last January 4 (Monday) was like a political event with the presence of political luminaries like Sen. Panfilo Lacson, Sen. Chiz Escudero, Sen. Allan Cayetano, former senators Ernesto Maceda and Robert ‘Bobby’ Jaworski, Eastern Samar Governor Ben Evardone, former Agriculture Secretary Arthur Yap, among others. Lacson headed the list of the principal sponsors while Sen. Escudero and Cayetano were among the secondary sponsors along with Julius Babao, Bayani Agbayani, Cheryl Cosim and Anthony Taberna’s radio partner in “Dos Por Dos,” Gerry Baja.
Spotted in the temple and at the wedding reception at the Grand Terrace in Commonwealth Avenue in Quezon City were actor/TV host and OMB chairman Edu Manzano, Bernadette Sembrano and boyfriend Kawit, Cavite Vice-Mayor Emilio ‘Orange’ Aguinaldo IV, TV news anchor Alex Santos, Cheryl Cosim’s California-based businessman boyfriend, John Francis Alvarez, DzMM’s station manager Angelo Palmones and more.
Because of the prominent personalities who attended Anthony and Rossel’s afternoon wedding, it caused heavy traffic along E. Rodriguez Avenue.
After the reception, the newlyweds spent the night in their unfurnished conjugal house somewhere in Mindanao Avenue.
“Gusto kasi namin maranasan ang pagsisimula sa wala bilang mag-asawa hanggang sa unti-unti naming makumpleto ng mga gamit,” shares Anthony who turned 33 two days after his wedding.
The couple spent their honeymoon in Singapore. Anthony is expected to be back today, Jan. 21 in “Umagang Kay Ganda” on ABS-CBN Channel 2 and DzMM’s “Dos Por Dos” with partner Gerry Baja.

hahaha, iba na talaga malapit sa mga politiko. lahat yata ng sponsors ay mga taga opposition. kung sa bagay, bakit nga ba naman sya kukuha sa mga taga administrasyon kung lagi nya silang tinitira ng punto por punto. galing mo talaga Anthony! saludo ako sa'yo. pinatunayan mo na naman na maka oposisyon ka..super galing ka talaga bro! sana magbasa ka pa ng biblia at para mo makita na ang mga anak ng diyos ay dapat irespeto at ipagdasal ang gobyerno. huwag kang makisali sa politiko kung ikaw ay isang tunay na kristiyano! sundin mo ang turo ng diyos, hindi ang turo ng relihiyon.... anyway, congrats sa wedding mo... 11 years pala ang parity ng age nyo ni misis...pero it's none of my business...
hoy mr. taberna d ka bagay dyan s ukg!!! nakksira ka ng program. msyado ka bias. sobrang anti gloria ka nman. pg baho ng oposition d m kya banatan, yn b magaling? takot ka dn e.. umalis kna jn s ukg!!!!
Anthony Taberna is not afaraid to tell the truth.Do not listen to him if you do not like him.
to sef: kawawa ka naman. pati to pinatulan mo? i just hope you'll move on and be happy and contented of what you have right now. God bless!
i am also from the media and i know how anthony taberna is being paid by senator lacson.
alam ba ninyo na may anak na siya sa isang babae na naging girlfriend niya before? natanggal sa trabaho ang babae dahil sa kahihiyan. iglesia kasi si anthony taberna, gusto niya sana ireklamo si anthony taberna sa mga pinuno ng iglesia pero tinakot siya nito.
kawawang babae.
naaawa din ako sa asawa nya ngayon dahil hindi ata alam yung katotohanan na yun.
to nononesensetalk: YOU'RE FULL OF NONESENSE. GO FIGURE THE TRUTH FOR YOURSELF.
No gossips here please... Mr. Taberna might be unfair as a media person but let us not be unfair to him...
Anyone can just say he is this or that without proof, but we cannot ask for fairness when we ourselves are not, can we?
HINDI CHISMIS. THE NAME IS CHRISTINE ONG. NOW WITH CHANNEL NEWS ASIA.
HE IMPREGNATED HER.
SI NONONESENSETALK AY ASAWA NI ANTHONY TABERNA!!!!
THE FREAK. KAYA SHEMPRE IPAPAGTANGGOL NYA YUN.
Ms. Andrade,
Saying you know things or name names are not proof enough. You will gain credibility if you can point us to easily verifiable news reports or other sources. Otherwise, we can label your information as mere gossip.
Meanwhile, how did you know nononsense is his wife?
well, ang daming nasabi re personality nya en ang main point naman ay kung ano yung ginagawa nya sa program nya. it's either di nyo napapansin or ayaw nyong pansinin na yung mga dinidiscuss nila sa radyo ay halos katulad ng mga karaniwang discussion ng mga ordinaryong tao na asar na asar na sa corruption, pagnanakaw at panloloko ng nasa administration. kaya meaning, yung masang nakikinig ang magdedecide kung ok yung ginagawa nya, di yung pati yung mga personal nyang baho uungkatin pa para idiscredit yung mga sinasabi nya. parang ganyan din ginagawa ke lozada ah, hehe.
ito ang link sa friendster ng asawa ni anthony taberna-
http://profiles.friendster.com/nononesensetalk
ayan kaya ko alam.
i think you are the one being paid, YOU are the one who is directly trashing one's credibility... yeah his questions can be quite personal sometimes, but what do you want him to do? his segemnt is about getting all of the points (kaya nga punto por punto db?), and his comments will be based on how they answer his questions... and one more thing if you think that he is creating issues out of nothing then i on the other hand firmly beleive that: THE GOV'T IS DOING NOTHING WITH THE ISSUES AT HAND...
Hi Teresa, sorry... that is not proof enough that nononesense is Rossel Taberna herself. Any one could have produced that friendster page, right? Sorry for you but the only way we'd know is if nononesense would admit it herself.

Well anonymous could be dead wrong. It is very easy for anyone to counter: Yung dinidiscuss ni Taberna ay yung gusto nyang idiscuss ng ordinaryong tao para maasar sa gobyerno. (in short propaganda).
Meanwhile, nigel is obviously pro Taberna. Bakit kaya? Kasi, honest fan sya ni Taberna?
Nigel also said the government is doing nothing about the issues. Obviously, the issues are true and government wouldn't do anything to damn itself. Sorry Nigel, I am not pro government, so I do not have any problem of trashing it. But your Taberna is not really discussing the issue to the truth. That is the reason why nothing good is happening. Taberna and the rest of the mass media do not want to get to the truth for they are part of the (and other bigger) crimes. So what the opposition and their mass media want is to have another People Power, so that the truth will not be exposed while they have a better chance to grab and rise to power.
Hi Teresa again, sorry I had a mistake. In fact, even if nononesense admit it herself, we couldnt be sure that she is rossel, right? You may not also be Ms. Andrada. I may not even be Sef.
to Sef: Yes, I'm Rossel. So what? Please move on and be happy. Wag nyo naman sirain ang asawa ko. Wala naman siya ginagawa sa inyo.
to Teresa Andrada: Please leave us alone. God Bless!
to Nigel: Salamat sa suporta. God bless.
to Everyone: Let's respect each other. Let's just be happy for Anthony. God bless you po.
Sorry Rossel (if you are indeed her) but I am not trying to destroy your husband. I do not even know him nor you. But you cannot stop me commenting on what is wrong with our mass media. Obviously, Mr. Taberna is pushing a political agenda at the expense of the rest of us.
"Mr. Taberna is pushing a political agenda at the expense of the rest of us."
Well said Sef. Media should not be as political as Mr. Taberna is. If some of the bloggers would not agree of him being political, then we are very lost. Media has then lost its purpose. To be the voice of the unheard and impartial.
EH BAKIT BA ANG PERSONALITY NG TAO ANG PINAG-AAWAYAN NYO AT PINAGDEDEBATIHAN AT HINDI YUNG CORRUPTION, SCANDAL, MGA MAGNANAKAW SA GOBYERNO ANG MAHALAGANG ISYUNG DAPAT NYONG TALAKAYIN?
