It's really something some people still trust the "all-knowing" ABiaS-CBN and its associates like Crappler and Philippine Daily Non-Inquirer. Let's take a look at this sample photo. In reality, President Duterte is playing with a group of children but what the news media wants to make it look like he's about to kill someone or about to hurt the child. This is what the Philippine oligarch media want the people to believe. If you don't know what that means, it means a small group of people who handle and monopolize the power in the Philippines for their own convenience.
Do you remember the whole time President Duterte sarcastically compared himself to Hitler and ABiaS-CBN showed it out of context? Do you remember the time when Jim Paredes' side of the story was the only one that was shown up? How is ABIaS-CBN not biased as it claims? If you're going to do news let every side of the story come out. Both Paredes and the Duterte youths should have been allowed to tell their side of the story. Right now, let both the Ombudsman and President Duterte tell their side of the story. In due fairness, Concita Carpio-Morales already did an investigation on Leila Dilemma and Noynoy Aquino though it's time to consider the "proof" behind President Duterte's accounts.
So what's the use of saying #fightfakenews all the while the merged opposition is also spreading it? Fake news is fake news regardless who does it. Duterte supporters shouldn't stoop down to the level of the Dilawans by doing the same. At the same time, Dilawans shouldn't be spreading fake news if they want to fight fake news. Just think of the reality that you don't fight fire with fire. You fight fire with something that puts it out.
