On Friday, August 29, the broadcaster took to her official X (formerly Twitter) account to call out the culture of tolerance surrounding corrupt officials. For Karen, it is long overdue for Filipinos to hold those who are corrupt, responsible, "KURAKOT SHAMING. It's high time," she declared.

In her post, Karen highlighted the stark difference between how corruption is addressed in the Philippines versus in other countries. "Sa ibang bansa, ang nagnanakaw sa gobyerno nakukulong o naghaharakiri. Sa Pilipinas, kina-iinggitan. Tama na," she wrote on her official account.
