Rumors about Korina being suspended from ABS-CBN after lambasing CNN anchor Anderson Cooper made rounds on social networking sites last week and during the weekend. It can be recalled that Cooper made his report that there was "no government presence" in the ravaged-city of Tacloban. Korina on the other hand reacted during her show in her air-conditioned room saying, "Cooper doesn't know what he's saying."
But despite the "mambo jumbo" situation and the speculation that Korina was suspended, the top newscaster of the ABS-CBN finally broke her silence.
"Marami kasing spekulasyon bakit wala ako sa studio last week. Ang spekulasyon hindi naman totoo 'yan. Matagal na kasing naka-schedule ang 'Rated K' na iikot sa iba't-ibang nasalanta ng delubyo. Ito ay trabaho," she told dzMM on Tuesday, November 19.

(There were many speculations as to why I wasn't here in the studio last week. The speculations weren't true. Rated K has been scheduled to visit the areas affected by the typhoon. This is work, she told dzMM on Tuesday, November 19.
The veteran reporter vows to return to her shows as soon as she's done with other stuff in her itinerary.
"Tatapusin ko lang ito, babalik din ako diyan. Inaayos ko lang itong for airing namin sa darating na Sunday.”
(I'm just going to finish this, and I will be back. I'm just fixing everything because it will be aired this coming Sunday.)
"Uulitin ko lang -- matagal nang nakaplano itong paglilibot na ito. 'Wag lang sanang pilit kinokonekta sa ibang bagay, ha? Pahingi na lang ng donasyon.”
I'll just reiterate - this visit has been already planned in the past. Don't connect this to other things, huh? Just give me donations, she added.
