On the midst of 1990, Ted Failon joins DZMM, chang- ing the AM landscape with his distinct style of broadcasting. He was first heard on the 2:00 AM to 4:00 AM program, Gising Pilipinas. After the years of success, DZMM still continues to be on top. From year 1991 to 2000, the station receives a lot of awards and recognitions from Kapisanan ng mga Brodkaster sa Pilipinas (KBP). This is also the time when DZMM got their first award as best AM radio station given by KBP Golden Dove Awards. As the station celebrates its 15th anniversary on 2001, the station decided to change their tagline from “Ang Himpilan ng Malayang Mamamayan” to “Una sa Balita, Una sa Public Service”. In April 2007, DZMM pioneers the new face of radio with DZMM TeleRadyo. Radio listeners not only hear, but also watch their favorite radio anchors as DZMM is first televised via Skycable Channel 22. DZMM Teleradyo is a chan- nel owned by the ABS–CBN Corporation under the ABS-CBN News and Current Affairs brand, and is available on cable throughout the Philippines. It also became the new way to connect with Filipino’s abroad. In August, DZMM flew all the way to Calgary, Canada for the “World Caravan” and the first roll-out of DZMM TeleRadyo, and it was estimated that 5,000 Filipinos attended the said event. By that time DZMM also O launches its official website which is www.dzmm.com.ph. ------AWARD WINNING At present, DZMM is considered as one of the top stations in the AM band in Metro Manila
and hailed as one of the most awarded radio ------stations in the Philippines by the Kapisanan ng mga Brodkaster ng Pilipinas. “All these TIMELESS achievements that we had through the years For 27 years, DZMM successfully organized is nothing without all the Filipinos who sup- and managed to bear patiently and outlast

“Dito sa production, mararanasan mo talaga ‘yung hirap at pagod na may kasamang fulfillment kapag naayos mo lahat. Makakaranas ka ng mga problema, tulad halimbawa dito sa amin, minsan magte-text ‘yung assigned anchor na hindi siya makakarating. We need to look for someone else, so we get anchors na available for replacement or our desk writers na trained dito. We do experience technical problems as well. Dapat lang lagi kang ready to face and fix them all.”
