Marcos names Lino Cayetano as new PTV-4 general manager

President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. has tapped former Taguig City Mayor Lino Cayetano as the new general manager of PTV-4, a move that could influence state media's direction under the Marcos administration. The appointment, confirmed by Presidential Communications Office Secretary Dave Gomez, places a key relative of Senate President Alan Peter Cayetano and Senator Pia Cayetano in a significant media role, raising questions about the future editorial stance of PTV. This shift is noteworthy as it underscores the political dynamics at play within the administration and the potential impact on public information and media freedom in the country.
