ith over 35 years of experience and multiple awards, Hizon is a stalwart champion of truth and one of the Philippines’ most prominent broadcast journalists. He has worked tirelessly for two of the largest global networks—CNBC Business News in Hong Kong and Singapore and BBC World News in Singapore and London—and was awarded the 26th Asian Television Awards Best News Program for The Final Word and Best News Anchor. But it hasn’t always been like this. He had his way back in 1988. There were no openings in the newsroom at the time, so I started making coffee and printing scripts—a runner doing all the grunt work. But I felt this was one way to get into the newsroom. Six to nine months later, I applied and joined the GMA newsroom,” shares Hizon.
