Bernadette Reyes to netizens bashing her amid typhoon coverage: 'Hangad ko pa rin ang kaligtasan niyo'

Bernadette Reyes has something to say about the negative comments she has been receiving online. The GMA Integrated News broadcaster shared screenshots of netizens commenting about her appearance and voice during her typhoon coverage. On Facebook, Bernadette wrote, 'It takes a brave spirit to weather the storm but it takes an even bigger heart to wish others well kahit minumura at nilalait na ang buong pagkatao.' 'Maaring hindi ako maganda sa panlabas sa inyong paningin pero hindi nyo ito kayang sabihin if only you know the kind of person that I am,' she added. Bernadette told netizens who spread memes about her, editing photos and captions 'to make me look bad' and those who 'ginawa akong katatawanan,' that she still wishes they are safe well during this season. "Hangad ko pa rin ang kaligtasan niyo at nawa ay ligtas at nasa maayos kayong kalagayan," she said. 'Sa mga patuloy na nagcocomment, nag memessage para magpakita ng pagsuporta, please know that i really appreciate each and everyone.' '[Twenty] years and counting... patuloy na mag lilingkod sa bayan. uulit-ulitin para sa bayan,' she added. She ended her post by saying, "Life is beautiful too. I choose to see beauty.'
