Blogger Mark Anthony Lopez has truly mastered the art of fake news but make it fashion.
In a dazzling display of journalistic gymnastics, he drops a bombshell: “Was it the First Lady who asked all cabinet members to resign?” Ah yes, the classic fake-news-with-a-question-mark technique — the coward’s exclamation point. It’s like throwing a grenade and whispering, “Just asking!” as it explodes.
Unfortunately for Mark, this rhetorical camouflage doesn’t work when your “question” is already packed with libelous baloney. It’s like saying, “Did aliens abduct the president last night?” and then acting shocked when people accuse you of being unhinged.
Mark’s strategy is the digital equivalent of farting in an elevator and asking, “Who did that?” But the internet sees through it. Next time, Mark, maybe try actual journalism instead of conspiracy fan fiction disguised as curiosity. Or better yet, just stick to food blogging — at least the harm would be limited to cholesterol.
Is another warrant of arrest for cyber libel looming for our beloved Kuryente King?
