E-Leksyon 2013!

E-LEKSYON 2013
-ryandgreat, sta.cruz, manila

we've held the most anticipated political circus of 2013!

there were two local elections, the national midterm elections on may and the other one last october for the barangay elections

three years ago we first experienced the automated election using pcos machines

and it was quite impressive because we've seen how far we can get in terms of technology

along with that is the extent of social media that played a vital role during election

the use of twitter and fb were utilized by traditional media that helped them deliver the up-to-date election results and reactions as well!

and during 2013 elections, how did we fair in our news coverage?

well the advantage of tv5 among other tv networks is that we have smart and pldt

news5 everywhere, an on-line news portal made for livestreaming of news clips and newscasts that are mostly election related

the content is being provided by news5 and all its platforms (interaksyon and radyo5)

our reporters in the field have also explored the use of lte technology where they conducted a live report using their iphone!

on the election week, came also the results, the protests and the proclamation!

the ppcrv or the parish pastoral council on responsible voting is the official partner of comelec

or its citizen arm that released the partial and unofficial result of the votes

while picc served as the canvassing area for the national candidates and the release of the partial and official results

there was also an outcry coming from the minority and we aired the first presscon of una coalition on 16th may

we also scored a live sit-down interview with the frontrunners senator grace poe and senator loren legarda

and lastly the final results and proclamation of winners on 18th may at the picc tent
