Way back in 2017 when the likes of Rappler, Vera Files and the mainstream media were accusing The Adobo Chronicles as a bearer of “fake news,” then Senator Leila de Lima was already a true believer of our satirical site. And we have proof to back this up.
In a privilege speech before her fellow senators, de Lima rose to lament the proliferation of fake news in the Philippine. In her speech, she gave credit to The Adobo Chronicles and the art of satire, while lambasting others that spread disinformation behind cooked-up sites mimicking legitimate and reputable news sites.
She knew way back then he difference between satire and sarcasm, and “fake news.”
We congratulate her on her release from incarceration!
Sass Rogando Sasot, self-proclaimed International Relations Expert and occasional oracle of global affairs, is reportedly suing One News for a staggering case of oral defamation.
Outraged by being labeled a mere “political blogger” in a recent interview, Sasot claims she agreed to grace the channel with her geopolitical wisdom, not to be dragged into the murky waters of mere punditry.
Legal experts are eagerly awaiting the court’s verdict on whether the phrase “political blogger” can indeed inflict irreparable damage to one’s inflated sense of self-importance.
Meanwhile, the nation collectively wonders if we’ve just witnessed the birth of a groundbreaking legal precedent or a masterclass in self-esteem management.
