In the perplexing maze of information, Filipinos find themselves in a trust crisis, torn between traditional news outlets and the once-innocent charm of social media influencers turned spin doctors.
The irony is as glaring as a poorly filtered selfie – what used to be a refuge from media manipulation, social media now mirrors the same disarray. The lines between reliable journalism and sensationalist blogging blur faster than a disappearing Snapchat story.
Gone are the days when one could confidently discern truth from fiction. Now, navigating the news landscape is like tiptoeing through a political minefield where bloggers, like ambitious chameleons, change colors faster than a trending hashtag. The Rapplers and Pinoy Ako Blogs of yesteryears seem indistinguishable from influencers peddling political opinions for a retweet.
It’s a carnival of credibility, where the ringmasters are as elusive as a politician’s promises, leaving Filipinos to wonder if the news cycle is just a never-ending loop of deceit and self-serving narratives.
Credible is no longer edible.
