MANILA, Philippines— Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB) on Thursday summoned ABC-5 to a gender-sensitivity and decorum inquiry next week over an episode of “Wowowillie” aired on February 28, MTRCB chair Eugenio Villareal told the INQUIRER.

“Wowowillie” is hosted by Willie Revillame.

Alleged matter complained of the time when a female talent was castigated on air; before the same female talent mentioned something unsavoury about a talent of another network; also to be inquired into is over-all portrayal of women in the show.

dati mayroon akong tfc channel nasa tfc pa si willie,tinanggal ko kasi para wala akong napupulot sa mga palabas nila, mostly pilipino channel wala kwenta ang mapapanood mo, laluna yang willie na yan bastos, kahit sa harapan ng camera,at sa balita naman minsan bias, kaya lang naman nanood pilipino kasi walang choice, dapat huwag ipalabas ang mga walang kwenta panoorin esp sa mga bata. saka paulit-ulit ang storya, may kabit ang lalake, may kalaguyo naman ang babae ganyan lagi ang tema
