“I am eagerly awaiting your demise. I know how this sounds. And I know the nasty comments which are bound to come. I don't care,” Jimmy exclaimed.
“If you think COMELEC is bad, wait until you see the real machinery that is known as "the biggest network." This is not schadenfreude. This is hope! This is for real change,” he added.

Angel Locsin earlier had a Twitter war with Jimmy while Angeline Quinto also decided to defend the network that she is currently in.
"Nalulungkot ako kasi ABS-CBN ang naging pangalawang tahanan ko, Oo hindi pa ako kasing tagal ng ibang nagtatrabaho sa estasyon na ito, pero para ganun ang maging hiling mo para sa ABS-CBN hindi ko kaya Kuya,” Angeline wrote.
"Puro english ang post mo, isang bagay lang ang itatanong ko, nasaan ang salitang utang na loob sa pagkatao mo,” she added.

"Year 2013. Nung panahong lugmok ako, walang pera, walang matirahan, ABS-CBN ang nagbigay ng tsansa na makabalik ang isang katulad kong bagsak na bagsak ang moral,” she quipped.
“Hindi ako kailanman magagalak na mawalan ng trabaho o pangkabuhayan ang nakararaming tao na nagtatrabaho ng maayos para matulungan ang kanilang pamilya dahil kailanman ay hindi ito tama,” she concluded.
