Senator Grace Poe hailed on Thursday the dialogue between the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) and ABS-CBN executives over controversies hounding the television series “Ang Probinsyano.”
The two parties held a dialogue on Wednesday at the national headquarters of the Philippine National Police (PNP) in Quezon City after PNP chief Director General Oscar Albayalde and Interior Secretary Eduardo Año hit the series for supposedly portraying the police in a bad light.

Earlier, Poe said the PNP should look at the bigger picture of the show’s plot.
