PiliPinas Debates 2016 is a debate series administered by the Commission on Elections (COMELEC) with the assistance of the Kapisanan ng mga Brodkaster ng Pilipinas in preparation for the May 9, 2016, general election.

The conduct of the debate was subjected to several criticisms. In the first leg of the debates, GMA Network was criticized for the number of commercials played with reports showing that 35.6% (48 out of 135 minutes) were dedicated to commercials. [14] Meanwhile, the second leg of the debate was criticized for the lack of professionalism with candidates resorting to bickering and petty fights instead of analyzing relevant issues in the country. [15] Finally, the third leg, hosted by ABS-CBN was criticized for the amount of political ads played during this leg. [14]
On February 19, 2016, Rappler sued COMELEC chairman Andres Bautista for “granting exclusive broadcasting and livestreaming rights to handpicked media partners" before the Supreme Court, not allowing online media to live stream the events. Rappler asked the high court to intervene to allow the debates to be streamed by more than one outlet. [16]
The social service claimed that the memorandum of understanding excluded online media from covering and streaming the debate; Bautista countered, stating that Rappler was being unprofessional and that they should have read the contract they signed. Rappler countered by saying it had raised the issues with Bautista and signed the agreement, believing in good faith that COMELEC would resolve the issues. Rappler's lawyer, JJ Disini, said the process for selecting media outlets could have been more transparent; he also expressed concern that the state-owned People's Television Network was excluded from the agreement.
