Noon at ngayon, Serbisyong Totoo – in the Philippines and around the globe.

Reflecting its enduring commitment to delivering truthful, balanced, and credible journalism to Filipinos around the world, GMA News secured the No. 3 spot worldwide and emerged as the Philippines’ No. 1 news publisher under the News and Politics category in the Tubular Leadership Worldwide Rankings for April 2026.

GMA News generated 3.6 billion video views across its official digital platforms: 2.9 billion from Instagram, 569 million from Facebook, and 119 million from YouTube. This propelled GMA News up the global rankings of global video analytics company Tubular Labs, skyrocketing from No. 40 in March to No. 3 globally in April.

With this latest achievement, GMA News shares the global stage with international media titans US-based Fox News at No. 1 (6.7 billion views) and NDTV India at No. 2 (4 billion views) – besting other international news organizations including Al Jazeera, CNN, and BBC News.

Tailored content for digital audience

Key drivers of GMA News’ high engagement were the livestreaming of newscasts and the biggest news events, which include the Senate and House of Representatives' hearing on the fuel energy crisis due to the US-Iran tension, the impeachment proceedings of Vice President Sara Duterte, and international news such as the historic Moon mission of Artemis II.

GMA News ramped up its digital-first content, anchoring its strategy on real-time reporting as major news events unfolded. Its digitally focused content, such as “Explainers by GMA News” and “What We Know So Far,” offers a dynamic mix of context that netizens can easily consume.

Leveraging mobile journalism, GMA News reporters deliver on-the-scene updates tailored for online news consumers. GMA News likewise produces user-generated content featuring light-hearted, feel-good stories for YouScoop+, and packages the day's biggest events into “News: Pinned” and digestible quote cards.

This year, GMA News ushered in a renewed era of strengthening its legacy in an evolving media landscape with its tagline “Walang kinikilingan. Walang pinoprotektahan. Noon at ngayon, Serbisyong Totoo” — reaffirming its trusted and familiar identity grounded in the same core values it has upheld through the years.
