Jannelle So is back on TV!
In 2006 she created, produced and hosted the first and only locally-produced daily talk show for Filipinos in the USA. Regarded as a Filipino-American media pioneer for the show she started, Jannelle successfully ran “Kababayan LA / Today” for eight and a half years, before leaving the show in 2014 to start a family.
Kababayan LA became the longest-running daily Filipino talk show outside of the Philippines. It started syndicating on KIKU TV in Hawaii, becoming Kababayan Today.
Jannelle and the show received numerous accolades, such as:
- Honorable Mention – The Los Angeles Press Club (53rd Annual Southern CA Journalism Awards)
- Outstanding Community Reporting – New America Media
- Supreme Hero Recognition & City Proclamation – City of Carson, CA USA
- 100 Most Influential Filipinas in the U.S. – Filipina Women’s Network
- TOFA Awardee in Media & Publishing -The Outstanding Filipinos in America (8th Annual Awards)
- Achievement Award – LA Filipino Association of County Employees
- Bayanihan Spirit Award – Historic Filipinotown Council, Los Angeles, CA
After a three-year hiatus from the Filipino media and the community, Journalist/Host/Producer/Entrepreneur Jannelle, now also a wife and a mother, is once again back on TV — with a new weekly talk/magazine show called SO Jannelle.
