There were no ropes in the original.

The clip was a 25-second excerpt from a two-and-a-half-minute-long video.
The pieces of paper Robredo was holding during the debate were not cheat sheets, but scratch papers provided by CNN Philippines to the presidential aspirants and were used for notetaking.
None of the photos were edited.
An old election campaign video of Vice President and presidential aspirant Leni Robredo was altered with the use of unrelated images to present misleading information about her.
Robredo’s spokesperson Barry Gutierrez cited a “conflict of schedule” as the reason for the vice president’s non-attendance.
Carlos did not allude to the vice president in her remark.
There was no announcement or directive on the city government’s website or Facebook page requiring or urging employees to attend the campaign rally of the Vice President.
Contrary to the fake claim, she had in fact previously said that she would shift away from building “car-centric” infrastructure and focus instead on building bus rapid transit systems, protected bike lanes, and better railways.
The remark has been wrongly connected to the priest as early as December and recently revived on FB from Feb. 17 to Mar. 2.
