Karen Davila on media rivalry: ‘It’s such a waste of time, mind and heart’

Award-winning broadcaster Karen Davila shared some words of wisdom after she was interviewed by fellow broadcaster Korina Sanchez-Roxas for her program “Korina Interviews” on Net25 recently.

Fans believe Karen and Korina have a cold war due to rivalry at ABS-CBN, but Karen frowned at rumors that they were enemies.

“They would say in social media ang fake ninyo, ang plastic ninyo but I would like to say from the bottom of my heart, that interview with Korina (Sanchez) was really in God’s good and perfect time,” said Karen during an interview with the entertainment press following her talk at the opening of Global Care Cancer Institute Inc. in Bay, Laguna last Nov. 26. 

Karen said: “Ayoko magpaka-plastic but Korina and I were not really good friends. We didn’t have the opportunity in ABS-CBN to sit together, to talk with each other. And for whatever reason it was, we were both busy, the competition was too much. ABS-CBN was a very competitive environment. And I think everyone would know that, right?

“But when Korina came to the house, I would always see Korina in socials because we have the same set of friends, napakagaan (niyang kasama). Ba’t ganun? In God’s good time! It’s in God’s perfect time that the Lord made us meet and talk.

“The sad part is that we never really knew each other. We never socialize in the office, we never got to talk. So when she interviewed me, that if I had any regrets, it was my 22 years in ABS-CBN, it was lost time to get to know Korina,” Karen said.

Karen said that the last time she saw Korina was at the party of their former boss Jing Reyes. She described the event as bittersweet after she saw the originals of ABS-CBN once again after many years.

“Korina is very easy. I saw her at the party of Jing Reyes, just to see the orginals of ABS-CBN – Noli De Castro, Loren Legarda, Ces Drilon, Ted Failon – it was bittersweet and nostalgic. You saw the originals of ABS-CBN when it was climbing up in 1986, to ABS-CBN today, you just realized ang buhay ay umiikot lang talaga,” she said.

Karen, who just turned 52, encouraged media friends to be friendly and let go of the competition or rivalry.

“Kaya kung may kaaway man kayo or kasamaan ng loob kayo, it is time, especially to media people. Lahat tayo at one point may competition but let me tell you it is a waste of time, mind and heart. When it is surrendered to the Lord, everything is so much lighter,” she said.

Karen said that she is set to interview Korina for her online show soon. “We will schedule that interview with Korina, kaso nga magpapasko. So I want to give the right time for that.”
