“Hindi namin kayo tatantanan”. This battle cry has been known and associated with one television program: Imbestigador. Fifteen years ago, GMA News and Public Affairs launched Imbestigador, a public service program whose mission is to be the go-to place of vigilant citizens and be the public's defense against injustices. Hosted by GMA News pillar and seasoned broadcast journalist Mike Enriquez, Imbestigador took investigative reporting to the next level by giving voice to the oppressed and righting wrongs for the ordinary people.

Love, they say, blooms in the most unexpected places. The hashtag #DangwaGirl went viral recently as university belt students posted about a mysterious girl giving roses away on the streets of Manila. The lovely flower girl was revealed on GMA’s 24 Oras newscast as Janine Gutierrez – who found a unique way to promote her upcoming series.  Janine spent a day giving out red roses to strangers she met along the way, similar to her role in the Network’s upcoming series entitled Dangwa.  The recipients - particularly the young men - were thrilled and quickly posted their encounters on social media.
