In the height of TV Ratings tampering issue against AGB Nielsen Media Research Philippines, the "Wilyonaryo" controversial/scam segment from WoWowee resurface again.
Yesterday at EAT BULAGA, Joey and Vic announced that televiewers must visit the video-sharing site YouTube if they want to know the truth about the latest controversy.
Many thought it is about the current TV ratings issue but it turns out to be a new evidence against Channel 2's show Wowowee.
YouTube registered users "absmadaya" and "gaboikent" uploaded a video showing rehearsal of Wowowee. Willie and his crew is rehearsing in opening and closing the cover of a single gold wheel with 2 numbers (whether 5 or 0). A great possibility that they can choose who will win the prize or lose the prize.

From PEP:
A technical staff member of the show puts a gold wheel in the middle and Willie tells him, "Masikip talaga." The male staff member makes adjustments and helps him "operate" the gold wheel. Willie rehearses changing the number inside the gold circle. He opens the flap to reveal a portion of the number that makes it undeniably a number five, but then he closes the flap again and it appears to be the straight edge of a totally different number. But when Willie pulls it off completely, it is again a number five.
In the first scenario, Willie opens the gold wheel revealing a number 5, indicating that the contestant wins P500,000. The co-hosts and the backup dancers all rejoice at the good fortune. As the video continues, they also rehearse the scenario wherein a number zero is revealed using the same gold wheel. The contestant loses, to everyone's dismay.
"Wilyonaryo" is the controversial segment wherein Willie accidentally showed the wrong number in the jackpot portion of the August 20 episode of the noontime show. It also started the word war between Willie and fellow TV host Joey de Leon of rival program Eat Bulaga. The Kapamilya network explained that the mistake was a result of a "technical glitch." By October, Wowowee discontinued the segment and replaced it with the "Merrygalo" segment.
When asked to comment about this rehearsal video, ABS-CBN Corporate Communications Head Bong Osorio told PEP (Philippine Entertainment Portal), "That's an old issue. That has been going on for months, it stopped...We don't know why it's resurfacing. It's an old issue. It has been discussed lengthily in the tabloids, TV, and afternoon programs. It has quietly taken a back seat until this afternoon."
