Mr. Duterte again accused the giant network of estafa for supposedly not providing him the airtime he had paid for.
ABS-CBN is a listed company and operates TV channels, radio stations and a website.
Mr. Duterte brought up the fact that the franchise was up for renewal after he was asked if he would take legal action against the network for supposed estafa.
He said its franchise was fine as long as it adhered to journalistic standards. But he said he would block the franchise renewal when asked by reporters.
“Yes. If you’re like that, you are engaged in swindling. For all you know, how many companies paid you and you did not air it?” he said.

He did not spare the Inquirer in his rants on Thursday, and said he would go after the Prieto family over the leased Mile Long property in Makati.

Mr. Duterte’s tirades were not limited to local media.
