In a stunning twist of journalistic integrity, some supposedly legitimate journalists have taken a nosedive into the murky depths of rumor-mongering blogging to salvage their dwindling returns and followers. 

Exhibit A: Krizette Laureta Chu, a once-respected name, now revels in the art of fake news peddling. Forget unbiased reporting; Chu has mastered the delicate balance of disrespecting religious sects for that extra clickbait edge and to advance her politics.

Recently, she brazenly attacked Iglesia Ni Cristo, leaving no stone unturned in her quest for sensationalism. It seems the race to the bottom is on, and Chu is leading the pack, proving that when it comes to sacrificing journalistic integrity, some will stop at nothing. 

The line between credible journalism and tabloid sensationalism has blurred, and these former truth-seekers now excel in fiction. How low can one go? Apparently, for these journalists-turned-bloggers, the answer is: there’s always a new low to discover.
