MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Rappler, the online news blog owned by convicted criminal Maria Ressa keeps on reaping accolades. Let’s count the ways:
- 1. Rumor-monger: it has been a purveyor of disinformation to perpetuate its twisted narrative and bias.
2. It is the least-trusted news brand in the Philippines four years in a row in the annual Digital News Report by the University of Oxford’s Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism.
3. It boasts of criminal conviction on cyber libel for its CEO and a former staff person.
4. Its CEO has been accused of lying her way to the Nobel Peace Prize, depriving far more deserving freedom of speech fighters like WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange.
5. Now, it has added a new feather on its cap: that of hate monger with its Father’s Day greeting!
