It’s a line she usually says at the end of every newscast. Given the current circumstances, that promise took on a more comforting tone, especially to millions of Filipinos who rely on ABS-CBN for their daily news fix.

As they watched the “TV Patrol” news team, Kapamilyas across the country shared pictures of them tuning in through their smartphones —some mirrored the show on their TVs— with their families, over dinner, just like before. The overall sentiment was that of gratitude.

When Kuya Kim said "Laban lang Kapamilya" in #TVPatrol Weather Weather lang segment tonight. I seriously felt that.

I used to watch only #TVPatrol on TV before ABS-CBN went off air. Now, through Facebook Live, I could watch again. Laban ABS-CBN. #NoToABSCBNShutDown pic.twitter.com/4htqC8TZPN

Watching TV Patrol on Youtube using a smartTV. Just like watching a normal show. Proof that we are really moving towards digital TV and cable providers may become irrelevant in the future. Kaya gigil siguro sa ABS talaga. #TVPatrol pic.twitter.com/4udmJjUz9U

But those without reliable internet access were left out, a fact that puts into question the National Telecommunications Commission's decision ordering ABS-CBN's broadcast capabilities to stop. At a time when information is vital in saving lives against COVID-19, why close one avenue to get crucial guidelines out?

These only represent the people who are privileged enough to have access to the Internet.

The "TV Patrol" stream was viewed by some as an act of defiance, anchored on the network's manta: “In the service of the Filipino.”
