People took to social networking sites, particularly Twitter, to show their disappointment with what the GMA News anchor had said. Some even called him racist and gave him the name Arnold Crab-io, taking from the “crab metality” that some netizens say newsman has.

To give light to the issue, Arnold Clavio released this official statement:

“Mga igan, nakakalungkot na may negatibong reaksyon ang naging pahayag ko tungkol sa Philippine Azkals kaugnay ng sexual harassment complaint ni Ms. Cristy Ramos. Wala po akong ganoong intensyon. Ang isyu po rito ay sexual harassment at kung may nagamit man po akong mga salita na hindi angkop, nagpapakumbaba po ako at humihingi ng pang-unawa. Dun naman po sa mga kasama kong nanindigan laban sa sexual harassment, maraming salamat po. Seryoso pong isyu ito na dapat bantayan.”
