Nagbigay ng kaniyang saloobin ang aktor, singer, at piloto, at army reservist na si Ronnie Liang kaugnay ng isyu sa pagitan ng Movie and Television Review and Classification Board o MTRCB sa noontime program na "It's Showtime," kaugnay sa ipinataw na 12 airing day-suspension sa kanila, na kasalukuyang inaapela ng pamunuan ng ABS-CBN.

Ayon kay Ronnie, hindi malinaw at consistent ang guidelines at parametro tungkol sa kung ano ba ang "acceptable contents" gayong mas marami pa raw ang mga palabas na "mas malala" kaysa rito.

Mababasa sa kaniyang X account ang kaniyang saloobin tungkol dito, posted nitong Setyembre 12 ng hapon.

Aniya, "Here's my honest opinion about the MTRCB issue with Showtime."

"The MTRCB, as the regulatory body, should give clear and consistent guidelines or parameters for acceptable content. In this case, they quickly suspended Showtime because Vice Ganda was seen licking icing off his co-host and partner Ion Perez's fingers. However, there were similar or worse situations on other shows that were not addressed with the same urgency or attention. This inconsistency raises questions about their decision-making. Parang selective justice. Sorry po, pero ganun ang impression✌️"

Nabanggit din ni Ronnie ang koneksyon ni MTRCB Chair Lala Sotto sa isa sa mga host ng karibal na programa ng Showtime.

"Chair Lala Sotto's ties to a rival show of Showtime have sparked concerns about fairness within the board. Even though Chair Sotto claimed to have abstained from the suspension order, her presence as the head of the MTRCB and her close family connections to the showbiz industry cast doubt. It's like having a referee in a basketball game who's best friends with one of the players – it just doesn't feel right. People expect regulatory bodies to be impartial. Kapag may koneksyon ka sa industriya na nireregulate mo at kapamilya mo mismo, mahirap para sa iba na tingnan ka na neutral. ✌️uli.

"If conflicts of interest persist and the public sees the MTRCB as being affected by personal relationships, it could tarnish the board's reputation and credibility. They must be perceived as fair and trustworthy. I have no personal issues with Chair Sotto, but someone else should lead the MTRCB. Clarity, consistency, and avoiding conflicts of interest will help maintain the MTRCB's reputation and prevent public backlash. 🙌," aniya pa.

Samantala, kaugnay nito, sinabi umano ni Sotto na kung magsasagawa ng public apology sina Vice Ganda at Ion, baka sakaling makaapekto ito sa desisyon ng board.

Nagsampa naman ng kasong kriminal sa mag-jowa ang Kapisanan ng Social Media Broadcasters ng Pilipinas, Inc. (KSMBPI) kaugnay sa umano'y "indecent act" na ginawa nina Vice at Ion sa nabanggit na noontime show.
