In a comedic twist of fate, the obscure trio of fake news aficionados, Maharlika, Sass Rogando Sasot, and Glenn Chong, find themselves catapulted into the limelight thanks to none other than journalist Anthony Taberna, a.k.a. Ka Tunying.
By receiving a mention from First Lady Liza Araneta Marcos during his interview, these three self-styled purveyors of misinformation are now known to the uninitiated masses. With their newfound notoriety, they can gleefully exploit this windfall by churning out a week’s worth of sensationalist content, lining their pockets with the currency of controversy.
However, amidst the shower of undeserved attention, they owe a debt of gratitude to the First Lady for inadvertently injecting a modicum of sophistication into their otherwise squalid gossip portals. After all, as their blogs increasingly resemble overflowing dumpsters of fakery and sensationalism, the touch of class from Mrs. Marcos is a welcome reprieve, albeit a fleeting one.
