CLAIM: That Pinoy Ako Blog’s Jover Laurio accused DDS (Duterte Die-hard Supporters) Ladies of looking like maids and bagoong vendors.

FACT: It was a Yellow netizen whose profile says he’s a supporter of embattled Chief Justice Lourdes Sereno who posted the question/statement on his Facebook page:

WHAT WE DID NOT FACT-CHECK:  If Yellow ladies, including Jover Laurio,  look like bagoong.  We’ll leave that fact-checking to Rappler and Vera Files

Jover Laurio’s Disbarment Case Against Atty. Larry Gadon Thrown Out!

6DE5F65E-23F9-4B3C-BA62-0D26DD067CAC.jpegMANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Pinoy Ako Blog’s Jover Laurio has joined the bandwagon and filed her own disbarment complaint against Atty. Larry Gadon.

She and others accused Gadon of grossly immoral conduct for how he acted towards the protesters (among them, Laurio) in Baguio City.

Laurio wrote in her complaint: “Complainants wish to point out that Gadon raised a dirty finger against peaceful protesters supporting Chief Justice Sereno without provocation.”

Laurio proudly posted copies of her complaint on her blog on Monday, neatly arranged like a deck of cards.44464179-646A-4CEE-958C-2EBF427A3C28

However, just minutes after she filed the complaint on Tuesday, it was thrown out by the Integrated Bar of the Philippines.

The Reason?  She submitted just three copies, instead of the required ten.

She was so in a hurry to take a photo of her complaint to post on her blog that she forgot 7 out of the ten Manila folders were empty.

Either that or she may be mathematically-challenged.

 

Rappler, Vera Files Want To Fact-Check The Adobo Chronicles’ Films

602ED8B6-401B-415A-AD51-F94FB22C78BAMANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – You give them a finger and they want your entire arm.  Such is the predicament now faced by Rappler and Vera Files, both recently named Facebook partners in fact-checking news and information on social media.

Rappler and Vera Files were quick to fact-check posts by The Adobo Chronicles, tagging them as either false or satire.

But now, the two fact-checkers also want to police films produced by The Adobo Chronicles and have asked Mark Zuckerberg to deputize them to do so.

But alas, Zuckerberg knows his limitations.  He said that films are not within the purview of Facebook and asked Maria Ressa and Ellen Tordesillas to seek approval from the Movie and Television Ratings and Classification Board (MTRCB)

Unfortunately, Rappler’s and Vera Files’ request was outrightly denied by MTRCB.

’Pati ba naman mga pelikula ay gusto pa ninyong pakialaman,” MTRCB said. (Now you also want to dip your dirty finger into films)
