He has been very vocal on social media about the issues that ABS-CBN is facing. Months ago, he received an intriguing comment from a netizen who seemed to be against the media giant. The weather reporter used his wit and infamous trivia in responding to the basher. According to Kim, the word “troll” originated from Denmark and it means “ugly dwarf.”
Kuya Kim Atienza also addressed the concerns of his family, friends, and followers about his health. Their concern was caused by the fake news that he got shot by armed burglars in his home. The fake reports even showed a supposed screenshot of the CCTV footage of the shooting incident as well as a supposed photo of Kuya Kim in the hospital. The Kapamilya star explained that there should be no cause for concern because he is very much alive and working as one of the segment hosts on TV Patrol.
