On April 6, the Supreme Court has ordered Comelec Chairman Andres Bautista to allow the debates to be streamed “unaltered” on other websites other than the lead network but “subject to the copyright condition that the source is clearly indicated.” According to SC Public Information Office chief and spokesman Thedore Te said that in a unanimous decision, the tribunal partially granted a petition filed by online news organization Rappler against Bautista.
CNN Philippines vice president for News and Current Affairs Alfonso “Pal” Marquez III said all six candidates confirmed their attendance for the debate: Sen. Alan Peter Cayetano, Sen. Chiz Escudero, Sen. Gringo Honasan, Sen. Antonio Trillanes IV, Sen. Bongbong Marcos and Camarines Sur third district representative Leni Robredo.
