Atom Araullo gets warm welcome from GMA 7

-


Days after he left ABS CBN, field reporter-television host Atom Araullo returned to GMA 7 where he started his broadcasting career.

Araullo, 34, will be part of the Kapuso network's News and Public Affairs team.

“I’m very excited. Ang dami kong gustong gawin, particularly in the realm of documentary production. I think this is a great place to do all of that,” said Araullo.


GMA Network Chairman and CEO Atty. Felipe L. Gozon also welcomed Atom upon his return to the popular network.

“Dahil kilala ang GMA-7 sa paggawa ng world-class at award-winning documentary and public affairs programs, kami ay nalulugod sa paglipat ni Atom Araullo para lalo s’yang mahasa sa pagiging magaling na broadcast journalist at documentarist among others,” said Gozon in a statement.

Araullo said that he is excited to resume broadcasting duties on GMA 7.

"Ano man ang mga gagawin ko rito will be the next stage of my career. Gusto kong mas marami pang mai-share sa mga tao tungkol sa aking mga paniniwala, at 'yung passion ko to do documentaries,” said Araullo, in an interview on GMA News Online.

“Excited po ako na makasama kayo sa mga susunod na mga taon. Asahan po ninyong hindi ko sasayangin ang inyong tiwala. At gagawin ko ang aking makakaya para mabigyan kayo ng mga documentaries at istorya na magiging makabuluhan, napapanahon, at tagos sa puso. I hope you join me on this new adventure,” he added.

Araullo graduated with a Bachelor's Science degree in Applied Physics at the University of the Philippines in Diliman, Quezon City.


When he was just starting on television, Araullo was part of the Kapuso Network’s primetime newscast "24 Oras" via the segment "ATOMic Sports."

On ABS-CBN, Araullo earned several awards, including a bronze world medal at the New York Festivals Awards for his documentary “Warmer” in April this year.

The same documentary was also recognized at the 38th Catholic Mass Media Awards.

In May 2017, Araullo was also hailed by the University of the Philippines Los Baños community as the Best Public Service Program Host for his program “Red Alert.”

In 2014, Araullo was one of the winners in the SUPER (Salute to Unparalled People, Endeavours and Resources) Awards for risking their lives while covering super typhoon Yolanda (Haiyan) in November 2013.

Araullo will make his acting debut for the upcoming film "Citizen Jake,” billed as the comeback movie of multi-awarded director Mike de Leon. - ROBERT REQUINTINA
